Default Kuruma Z N-Style Bumper!

Here are some pictures of the finished product, prepped, painted and installed. As you can see it has great fitment and retains all the OEM fender liners and as well as the under engine cover and our bumpers also comes with a mesh grill and all necessary hardware for installation.

Does any one have a pix of the Stillen Series II on a car other than black???

On black you can't see the detail as on a lighter color.

Thanks to anyone that points me in the right direction.

The bumper comes with that hole filled, you can have the shop drill out a hole for you for the tow hook if you track your car or want to install a ZEE BRACKET. This particular had the hole cut out for the tow hook.

I agree with Sin about the Stillen Series II. I like the Nismo bumper alot better. I'd black-out the middle block with the hole. Kinda looks buck-tooth.

Thats actually not Jasons car but Kennys car, one of the other guys that works here in our department. Labor on body work really depends on where you are located because it factors in the labor rates and material costs and depending on what brand refinishing products they use.
