Go here: http://www.aerotrends.com/ and choose BODYKITS at the top then look for 200SX! :D

metro se-r. You are right about it not fitting right. The reason being when the kit was made it was in a rush and the original bumper was not used as a mold therefore its very crappy quality. Here is a picture of how it looks like on.

As you can see the kit is a lil bit lopp sided the left side has too much of a gap. In couple months a brand new FULL kit will be out with an actual original mold from a 98 200sx se-r. Skyline front, rear, and sides. The front will be an optional JDM 2 piece kit. This will fit on much better. So i recommend you not buying any of the skyline kits out there as of now since they require lots of work to fit on.

i got the sinsei bumper from ohc motoring and it required alot of work to make it fit. it still has a gap on the sides but better than the gap on the omega kit. i suggest waiting for a polyurethane kit or if ya want i'll sell ya my sinsei bumper for $200:p

Damn... I was originally giving the omega front props... but after that pic... :eek: I bought the VIS extreme kit like 2 years ago and it fit perfect!! I thought VIS was above selling crap kits.... Can't we get anything that's good quality for our cars??? And i had the sensei kit too... I test fitted it and handed it right back!! CRAP!!

I'm thinkin the new Stillen front is looking better and better!!!

I just recently a month ago put on the new Stillen GTR front bumper. I think it's the best looking bumper out there, its not too plain like that wide mouth drift one, but its also not..uh..butchered like the vis kit. Plus it's Stillen so you know its high quality. With the addition of my bumper I have gotten a bunch of compliments at school, work, and just people at Publix and whatnot. Anyway, just thought I would give my two cents. :)

The thing I like most about my bumper is most people don't really recognize it as being aftermarket. The Skyline bumper on the Aerotrends page doesn't look too bad. I'm guessing it is fiberglass though????

I agree that the GTR is a nice bumper, but I have to disagree that its the best looking one out there. I personally LOVE the skyline bumper, its just too bad its sh!tty quality. As for your bumper, I gotta give you at least one thing, IT IS "STILLEN" quality :D

Yeah I agree. Upon first glance it's almost an OEM look since its not too extravagant.. Also its not made out of fiberglass like a CERTAIN ::COUGHCOUGHskylineCOUGHCOUGH:: bumper, so it doesn't break the first time a piece of loose asfault hits it. I don't know I think the skyline fascia looks too blocky/ugly. I know its supposed to look like the skyline, but also, the skyline is a little more boxy than our car(s). So long, not rounded like the 200sx. The GTR replaces that hideous miata mouth from the front of our car. I say miata mouth because its like a half oval, like the miata. Anyway, I would suggest getting GTR if you are looking, because its high quality and has an aggressive yet luxurious look to it.

SUP2THEBOV,

what is that thing thats on the floor below the skyline bumper? It doesn't look attached. Or is it an additional piece for the front? Hmm...I've been trying to figure it out for 2 days and decided just to ask.
