! Shiny ! New Chrome Bumpers

[siteunseen]

I just ordered a set also, with 15% off today.

You will be happy, guaranteed.  I'm finding the bolts for the rear bumper now, Nissan Hardbody pickup has the same chrome 3 piece bumpers.  Jegs has a bumper bolt kit for $6.99 but it's a 5/16".  I'll post up what I end up getting today.

They look amazing!!! I am so jealous...!!! Well done for your choice and your Z...

Very, very, nice!

If mine were not in good shape, I would be all over those, especially with today's sale.

Probably cheaper than getting the originals re-chromed.

I got a rough quote to weld up the existing holes for the bumperettes and rechromeing my OE bumpers, $500 each.

Heres's what I ended up getting, http://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS-Performance-Products/555/83770/10002/-1?parentProductId=2895853#moreDetails

 

1/4" are trying to twist in the square hole on the bumper ends so 5/16" will have to work.  I'll have them in a few days.

Thanks for the heads up on the sale! I ordered just the front chrome.  Going to have to figure out how to put it on my 77 next. Should be fun.

Hey Greg.  I'm about to do the same as you but I'll be putting my old rusty front bumper on my '77.  I found a 1/4" thick shelving bracket at Lowes that's the right width and long enough to make 2 brackets.  There's a lot of info out there.  This guy makes them but it's more than I want to spend before trying something DIY, http://www.zccjdm.com/catalog.php/azcarbum/dt93862/pd1790406/280Z_TO_240Z_FF__RR__BUMPER_CONVERSION_BRACKETS_

They used to have pictures but not now, I guess people were copying his brackets themselves.  They pop up on e-bay occasionally.  Maybe we can figure something out.

Taiwan is what I read somewhere.  They come in a fancy box that says"'70 to '73 240Z Bumper" packaged and wrapped up nicely.  I tried to find a scratch, none whatsoever.  They polish up like the mirrors in jail.

Taiwan according to Eiji.

It's a great option if you want to keep your original bumpers.....they patch up every little nick and dent and put on a triple dip chrome.
