Fitting 240Z bumpers and Valences to a 280Z

Featured Replies

What's happening here, is a small business starting?  FutoFab should be partnering up.

Aren't they called biertjes in Holland? 

Count me in for a pair of rear brackets.  I'm getting tired of people asking if I'm going to put a rear bumper on.

I'd take the fronts if you're selling them as complete sets. Greg and I could work out the details. 

Thanks Chas, they look great and you made them. Winners all around. 

LOL

Look what you started Chas! Maybe next bright idea I have ill just send by PM.... Or maybe just resign yourself to opening a custom fab shop!

I pickled the welds today and tried the brackets on my car.

Here are the brackets all cleaned up and on the car.

I have fibreglas bumpers so its not a 100% guarantee, but with all the measurements I have from people I'm confident they will fit the original bumpers. All the critical distances are within 1 or 2mm and with the slotted holes there is a tolerance of about 15mm.

I just got my order of bumper and grill brackets from Chas and I'm extremely happy.  The items are very high quality, everything was well packaged and it arrived very quickly.  Thanks again!
