I don't have one but I know you will need the lights, harness for the lights, bumper andthe brackets. Not sure if there is anything else you need

you have the cut the usdm brackets

freakinbox · 10-05-2006, 01:54 PM

or... you could get the JDM bumper brackets

Rebar needs to be removed as the JDM bumpers don't use reinforcement, hence the reason why they're better looking.

what is the difference between the us pop up and the jdm one? i just got the bumper and thought i could use the whole us front fender, hood headlights with the exception of modding lights below the pop ups.

you mean lights as in the turn signal lights correct and not the pop up headlights? its comming with turn signal lights brackets and everything on the bumper.

everything else is the same on the zenki but the bumper and lights on the bumper.

On the kouki the marker lights under the headlights are larger

If you went levin the fenders headlights, bumper and lights, hood are all different.

How about post some pics of what you have dude, you've got us all guessing which bumper or front you have.

it turned up being a kouki bumper. i have two choice now. either i modify the bumper with fiberglass to make it like a zenki of i buy the kouki lights for it. where would i do that. what do you guys think?

or you could modify the plastic pieces under the marker lights to fill the hole

***REN69*** · 10-06-2006, 08:25 PM

No don't do that! just find the Kouki lamps dude... they're always on ebay.

rdyzz · 10-08-2006, 08:09 PM

i put the bumper on yesterday. i notice its sorta a hybrid design like levin meets trueno deal. its more blocky than the zenki bumper. its not completely on with the brackets yet. i'd post pics but as of right now the computer im using is tooooo slowwww.

yea the turning signals are really similar on the levin. I hate the markers on the kouki, they are just so damn huge

rdyzz · 10-08-2006, 08:52 PM

what i ended up doing for the time being is i cut the black area beow the lights. its weird. im trying so hard as of right now to get the marker lights.
