nizm0zed Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 as a serious question, what do people think about that car with black bumpers??? Flares or not? colour matched front spoiler or not? Its pretty much exactly like i want to do mine, but mine will have black bumpers. im trying to decide on flares or not, and on whether to get the front spoiler painted? Personally i think this car looks Effing awesome!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB30X Posted October 22, 2011 Author Share Posted October 22, 2011 I think black bumpers look ok depending on the colour of the car. Not sure if you'd get away with leaving the front spoiler black without black flares (and mirrors) to compliment it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agno Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 black flares and bumpers would make it really stealth looking. it would definitely modernise the look of the car quite a long way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuzzyDropbear Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 In my opinion, if you want a black bumpers then you have to make it part of the colour scheme for the whole car. Like what the bloke has done with this Z (and many others) where there's the black rear spoiler, mirrors and flares. I'm not sure if I'm painting my front spoiler yet, I'll have a black rear spoiler, black mirrors and a couple of other black items. If you just had a black front spoiler, I dunno, depends on the car. Doesn't Bruce have a black front bumper on his? It looks pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saxon Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Beautiful! I'll save this link for the next person who says that adding flares to an S30 is molesting it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perrin_07 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 there was an orange datsun on here which i thinks looks absolutely stunning with the black flares....and black flares on black is just teh sex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handsandwhich Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Very nice indeed! On a side note, does anyone know where to get the little plastic bumper protectors like the ones I have circled in the pic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
260DET Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Colour coordinated bumpers are sooo last year, chrome is the new black, on that car the chrome front bumper widens the look too. Plus chrome looks great with dark colours, win win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its pretty much exactly like i want to do mine, but mine will have black bumpers. im trying to decide on flares or not, and on whether to get the front spoiler painted? Personally i think this car looks Effing awesome!!!! I think it can look good depends on the car. The factory gave the hs30-h cars aka 240zg cars a fibreglass rear bumper that was a dark grey shade to suit the nose front. So its period correct in some ways. Personally I like the chrome bumpers for the classic car look though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colour matching flares, bumpers, and spoilers black is definitely the way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HS30-H Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 I believe they are a US Option Stock part on Japanese market cars. Original part numbers were 62692-E4100 BASE-RUBBER, BUMPER ( R.H. ) and 62693-E4100 BASE-RUBBER, BUMPER ( L.H. ), superseded by 62692-E4101 ( R.H. ) and 62693-E4101 ( L.H. ) The factory gave the hs30-h cars aka 240zg cars a fibreglass rear bumper that was a dark grey shade to suit the nose front. Gav, The factory HS30-H 'Fairlady 240ZG' rear bumper was steel, but with a painted finish to match the front, and with a full-width rubber strip joining up with the two corner strips seen on short nosed Deluxe cars.

Alan I should have double-checked my facts on that. I knew it was colour coded, but for some reason I thought it was also fiberglass.
