Yeah, unfortunately you probably won't.

I'm really not satisfied with the quality of this bumper at all. Oh well.

Looks good from far away though.

replica right? Will you invest in a JDM front bumper after your center dash cluster comes in?
Keep me posted.

Yeah, it's a replica. And yeah, I'm looking to pick up the RS bumper. Shipping prices are killing me though, at least from Japanparts.com

I got my cluster in a few days ago actually! Been enjoying it too much to take a picture, here's a quickie from my phone:

High beamed for what? O_o

I will have to see what I can do about a second, but this one was hard to find. Originally came out of a 2008 Grade U Vitz equipped with a CVT.

Sorta took a chance due to transmission type, but it is totally plug and play! Installation took me like 3 minutes, lol.

Going too slow, thinking in your head your going 70 mph, but its 70 kilometers on your dash. Need to go 120 km to be at highway speed limit..

lol awesome. Yeah, that'd be awesome if you could Gideon, I'd even give you commission for your efforts for getting another one(seriously, though).

Oh yeah, no worries about that. All I needed to know was 100 kph ~ 60 mph and I'm golden. Obviously the trip/odometer is in kilometers which I need to get used to. But best part is button on the left is for the odometer and the right button is clock, waaaay more convenient than previously where it was reversed!

I'll do some digging on the cluster for you, and go back further to 2006 models to see if that helps the search.

Didn't know that, I like that.

I really would appreciate that. Keep me posted on your search for it, through PMs.
Thanks again Gideon. You know I put my money where my mouth is for JDM

I so wish you had that at the Marin meet, wanna see it up close..

Both.

Taking it off after test fitting it caused a tear at the bottom of the bumper, and a piece started to break off on the sides where it snaps into the fender.

Canadian would have MPH under KPH.

Although I purchased this from a seller in Japan, I have my doubts as to the authenticity of it, as I'm in the process of bringing over a RS cluster for Kioshi from Japan and the speedo tops out at 180 kph on it, which is a common speed limit for vehicles in Japan. Mine goes to 200 kph though.

Some recent show shots ...

Long Island Cars Car Show (8/16) ...





NOPI (8/29-30) ... the band-aid was covering what the other car did to me, but it was a minor thing unlike the 3 other cars involved.

Well, I guess it's now my turn since Treyz went last. lol.

My friend wanted to try out some new post processing stuff in Photoshop so we took some update pictures of my car with all my little new parts installed. (Except the harness, that was just mocked up, need to get harness bars before it's installed. :P
