no one on here should be telling you what to do... its your car. Personally, i like the conversion you have shown (brain fart... i cant think of the name) but sleepy eyes always look good

august 96' they revised the 180sx. with this bumper. trim was a type x. yea i know it is kouki. but the bumper is from the type x trim. i dont think the type r trim had this bumper.

i decided to keep it like it is. too much money to just toss the carbon covers for the other set up.

Umm, i know they redid the 180 in 96' i know they had 3 trim models, yes the Type R,Type S and Type X had that bumper.

They may not of had the side skirts,wing or lip but they had that bumper.

im not trying to argue with you. you just stated it wasnt the bumper. yea your right its technically just a kouki bumper but it was from that trim. thats all i was saying. anyway, like i said earlier. im keeping it the way i have it. i need to stop trying to change my car soo much. i guess
sometimes thats part of it all.

Ya good idea. I dont know why people hate the look of pop ups.

My old coupe had pop ups, i kept it that way. i loved the look.

If it aint broke dont fix it.
