re: Who on here ******* up this 9 :X

this used to be sr20ket's

Found one I'm happy with...

looks to have had some work done to the front end as it used to have a mugen front bumper and different wings,the bonnet is from a facelift thats why it doesnt fit properly.

Looking at corral's link it looks well minded.. And it true if you sell the mugen rear bumper and put a oem one on and sell the carbon bonnet and put a proper fitted one on and buy a ek9 spoiler.. You will still have yourself a very nice, well modified cheap black ek9..

Do we presume this car has had a front end smack at one point then?

Meh! I've seen worse, not impressed. The spoiler would only be usefull if you constantly did Time Attack, and it was adjustable. But I'm sorry, there is NO excuse for the bumber.

Well in corrals link the lad says its a 97 but in the add it says its a 98.. I cant read english plates so I aint sure.. If its a 98 it could be a facelift as it does have facelift interior and lights..Just the hood looks odd. Maybe it did get a smack or maybe they were changed for look purposes..But a bit odd they wouldnt change the rear bumper to

re: Who on here ******* up this 9 :X

who knows,it may be that the bumper was sold or something, but you would'nt take the front bumper off and leave the rear,if i were going to look at it i'd want to investigate further.

re: Who on here ******* up this 9 :X

Does it not look odd because a facelift bumper has been fitted to a pre-facelift car? Would this make the bonnet not line up with the grill?

i think its a facelift front end and a prefacelift bonnet rather than the other way round,but thats why it looks odd.

Its not that bad... Could easily be brought back to stock, and could possibly make a profit from the mugen parts.

And it looks as though its a pre-facelift bonnet on a facelift, as it has the facelift headlights, bumper, interior and rear lights etc, so most likely a late 98 model.

Overall a nice little project i'd say, especially for the askin price
