Guest levelhead86 Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 what about zastoning the zx.... I did a very similar photoshop, although I added a 240z style bumper to the front of it, and ultimately, it looks basically like a 240z. After thinking about the essence of the 280zx, I decided on a mix rice/muscle hybrid... like, flared out fenders, and an open front-end with a big intercooler, or something like that... I think more photoshop/drawn/photographic ideas would definately help us ZX'ers to find a doable design that doesn't involve a full-on custom frontend fiberglass project.

Guest nissannutz Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 all i can say is you've inspired me to finish what a thief started (trying to steal my front bumper) but if i do the rear i want to round the bottom like roll pan will post pics of what i'm working with once i stop procrastinating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
260DET Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 The front of this is different, the back is an improvement though the bar could be a bit flusher? And if you want to buy it http://cgi.ebay.com.au/280zx-nissan-datsun-one-of-a-kind-208ZX_W0QQitemZ250173768969QQihZ015QQcategoryZ102220QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clindayag1 Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 a little bit of photoshopping... its a bumper for a 180sx http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/HiFlex-171b-Body-Kit-F-Bumper-Nissan-240SX-89-94-180SX_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ36475QQihZ010QQitemZ200157572042 but maybe you can make it fit for the 280zx. at a quick glance, i kinda looks like a porche Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nycist Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 How Does that look? looks sick man... looks alot like a s13 se(dual cam) front bumper cover... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDMFairladyZX Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 Ive taken off both of my bumper on my 280zx and honestly i think it looks way better, looks more like a S30. Also with the bumpers off it reduced 65lbs off the car. Ill post pics tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bschiltz Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 so i take it that the z front clip wont bolt up to the zx frame Depends what you mean by 'bolt up'. Anything will bolt up with enough hacking and gluing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
