Ok I have a 96 Specail Edition and am wondering if a 2001 front bumper will bolt right up to my car. Also what kind of front lip is this, I realy like it. thanks for the help

 

If you switch to the 98+ bumper you will have to get the 98+ headlights, other then that i believe you should be fine, and the lip is oem, or comptech. Please correct me if im wrong guys.

 

It's the OEM ITR lip, and 1bar is right about needing the 98+ headlight assemblies as well.

 

Any idea of a price on that stuff, the bumper asembaly with lights and the type-r lip?

Or where I can find it

98+ Headlights usually go for around $250-$300 for the pair, the bumper for around $150-$200 unpainted (sohfast.com has 'em for $200), and the turn signal lenses are like $10 for clears on eBay and probably about the same for used OEM's (94-97 will not fit). So, about $400-$500 plus paint.

I have noticed that eBay is not a great place to buy these parts, because they tend to go for a lot more than you could get them elsewhere. The For Sale forum on message boards is a good place. Just beware of scammers, both on message boards and eBay. But, eBay might be a good place to sell the 94-97 stuff on... I figure you can sell the stock 94-97 bumper for like $75-$125 and the headlights for $150-$250. So, that's about $225-$375 back, for a net cost of $125-$175 plus paint.

I'm in the process of getting the parts myself. I just got a great deal on the head lights ($200 + $20 S/H), and I can get the paint at cost, so now all I have to do is find the front bumper at a reasonable price.

 

Hehe... great deal: I got a 2001 GS-R coupe shell w/ front end (no engine, suspension, tranny, or interior) and rear bumper, hatch, spoiler, sunroof, etc. for $400!

where the hell did you get a deal like that?

And isn't that 99LS's car on the top???

Anyway, like they are sayin u need to get both the headlamp & corner/bumper lenses as well as the front bumper. And it should be no problem bolting up.

 

Go here for the same kind of a deal:

Man, that car is nice.

 

you will aslo have to make sure the 98- has the bumper lenses suppor brakets. some places dont include them.

 

I dont think you can get Rota Slips in 17 so they must be 16's, and they look sweet on that car.

 

92JDMGSR, if you are referring that site, you must be up in the Santa Rosa are, which is where I am from. I'd like to know where things that cheap are coming out of Santa Rosa and why? And if I remember correctly, that site got some heat from the local paper after some cop sting operations on racers in our area. Santa Rosa and surrounding areas is becoming a crazy import scene now.

Plus, i never saw a JDM in santa rosa if i remember, where exactly are you from?

 

u think those rota's would look good on my car?

 

what do YOU think?
