Default Need Esprit Front Bumper Pics or simular

I'm looking for a new front bumper, something with an oval grill (kind of Jag-like). The Esprit is close, but I'm just not sure. Looking for some more PICS of the Esprit or some other suggestion. BTW I've seen the Esprit white Z.

[QUOTE=lemans350zed]my z with esprit kit. kit looks much better in person!



I'm starting to dig that bumper alot. Couple of questions.... how much further does that bumper stick-out than the stock one? And of course, the famous, "how was the fitment?"

Thanks for the pics

it sticks out about 3 1/2 inches more than the stock bumber, and even on stock springs it is lower than the stock front. fitment was great. we molded the rear bumber cover into the stock rear bumber, but that was by for the most work that had to be done.

Lemans350zed: I am not a big fan of most kit bumpers, but I must say yours looks very very slick. Keeps the Z looking like a Z but adds a nice touch. Just needs one of those drivers side air intakes.

sticks out A LOT more than stock bumper and angles down as well so it will feel like you lowered your car even though you havent...i believe its 4.5 inches of clearance at stock height (i measured once)..bumper is sick though and takes some work to get fitment around the headlights (with replicas)

Thanks thought so. It looked like erindale to me, or right near the entrance to the golf course. By bloomingdale I meant the area I know its not bloomingdale ave . I live in fishhawk but grew up in valrico and went to school at bloomingdale highschool.

Dammit Havabooz!

I thought my mind was made up and I was not getting the Esprit front bumper, but your ride looks excellent. Got me thinking about it again.

If you lower your car, driveways, speedbumps, foreign objects on the road become your enemy.

350z pilot...there are tons of nice bumpers..i like the esprit but its really a pain to drive with...you will get used to it but its prob the bumper that will be most prone to taking a cracking blow....but the replica (which i had) is much stronger than people think
