I'm in need of a new bumper. I'm not happy with what I have found. Most bumpers are too ricey. My problem is that the FMIC is huge and hangs below the stock bumper about an inch or two. So I cut the front off and now it's trashed...no need to flame, I already know. I'm now thinking a new stock bumper with a nice fat smooth lip. I want a euro look. Any ideas of where to start???

Oh...it's a 97'

You can use OEM, or make your own out of garden trim.

Anything after market. I'm not going to use garden trim, no matter how good it looks. Anybody ever seen this style bumper before? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/240SX-97-98-R400-Style-Front-Bumper-BodyKit_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ36475QQihZ009QQ itemZ190028077365QQrdZ1
I assume it is a knock off. If so I would like to find a manufacture that makes a quality part verse this no name. Did european s14's look different then JDM and USDM models? I'm leaning towards stock bumper with a lip, but I want something a little deeper then the OEM. I never realized how hard it is to find something that looks good.

No European cars look the same, JDM cars have different bumpers for your model year.

That's an Nismo 400R bumper copy, back in the day the R33 bumper was a hot ticket on the S14 before drifting was around.
