FITTING Nismo R33 bumper to Eunos 30x - By 'Mr Custom' ;-)

Should be another choice.
"Wouldn't want to do it."
I could understand an RX7 bumper or MX5 as they are from the same manufacturer, but not using a Nissan bumper, don't see the point.
I'm doing it cos it cost nothing. and can't afford a new (even second hand) bumper… i really don't care if it's not Mazda... if it fits and looks good, i really don't care... its more that i can now cut'n'shut...
it's not like i was determined to go and find a "mismatched" bodykit to try to look like a twat, it cost NOTHING. and still have the stock one if i wanna change it again. but thatnks for the comments.

I must say that looks like a very neat job. It's starting to come together quite nicely.. Well done to you for the "outside the box" thinking

now ive seen it all together it look realy well great work
-
It was really touch and go at the start… never plastic welded let alone done something this big before... just knowing i was cutting up a genuine NISMO bumper was stressful enough.
it took alotta guts to get the powertools out.. :-/

Wow. That looks freakin' awesome! Moar pics! :D

Everyone I ask says it's a series 2 Nismo…? meh. yeah, thanks for the positive comments guys. ;-)

TBH mate, no-one would give away anything Nismo.
Pretty sure it's not.

He's my best mate… I did a massive custom boot install for him, labour alone would have been in the thousands...
so instead of paying me he gave me his bar, cos he got a GTR style one.

It does look better than most kits out there. If I were you I'd lose the vents and the twin side light/indicator bit (or relocate them and use the two holes as part of the induction :wink: ).
Fair play on the work you have put in, it does look well done (just not my cup of tea).

My mate did this with some uber rare original 70's Ford Escort rear lights!
He drilled out the middle of them and put a blue light in the middle (for the retro look)The whole club disowned him! Haha!
