Exclamation Vertex Front Bumper Asap

Anyone know where I can get one? So far every place needs to special order them and I only have like a week to get one. Thanks.

Hmm...Unfortunately, I don't think any is available at the moment since Vertex USA is still waiting for their container to clear customs. You can try contacting them about availability: http://www.vertexaerokits.com/contact.html . Other than that, unless you can find someone who is getting rid of theirs or if your willing to go the replica route, I don't think you will find one within your timeframe. I'm assuming you're looking for the full bumper correct? Why the rush?

I wrecked my Z last weekend and its in the shop but I figured if I could get a kit in time then i would tell them not to order the oem parts.

Sorry to hear that . At least you're okay though.

Yeah, the Vertex kit may take you awhile depending on the clearance of that container & availability since a bunch of those I'm sure are backorders like B-Unit's. Try giving them a call to inquire. They're all pretty cool guys over there. I personally worked with Dat who is also a Z owner.

Other than that, the only other option is maybe a replica but I can't comment on quality & fitment since I don't haven't had experience with any. Up to you...

buy the whole kit then resell the side/rear later? Or change to different kit or wait.

Well, how about this as an option. Price is really good (might be same price as OEM if not cheaper), material is durable (Polyurethane), Fitment from what I've heard from owners is pretty good, works well with or without a full kit, & it's a bit more aggressive then the OEM.

Worst case, you can sell this off once you save up for the kit you do want since this won't really break the piggy bank.

+1 on that Aerosync Nismo Style Bumpers. I saw it at Tommy Bodyshop and it looks great. Some ZR SS has it paint and install.

Just be careful with replicas. Some fit really well & some fit like crap so you might end up spending more than you should. Not framiliar with this company so I can't say if it's good or bad.

Funny they used ACP's pictures since he has an authentic kit.
