I know someone with a NOS Kamei that I beleive may be looking to part with it, but is not identical to that one.

The green SA I would not be surprised is one of our local guys but am drawing a blank on the name of the damn

I'm not sure that's a kamei [green], looks more like the xenon, this is a kamei [first 3 attach.]
That one has also been molded on.

As for the red one, it sits among a collection of cars from the 22C Works club in Japan that is responsible for building a number of beautiful cars that no one really knows anything about such as [4 and 5 attach]. I imagine it's simply a one off chin spoiler as I've never personally seen another car ever manage to pull something like that off, and the closest thing I can think of is the Datsun 510 and 240Z chin spoilers but are much much MUCH less drastic.

22C Works seemed to have recently updated their website making it easier to navigate as well now has a list of the administration within 22C Works itself so possible someone fluent in Japanese could fire off an e-mail to Sassy?

Thanks. That is EXACTLY what I been search for for a year. I was hoping for a buy it now deal. Unfortunately it will probably sell for $1k or so, lol. It is for a FB but from looking at it, it should be pretty easy to adapt to the Series 1. I will probably buy it anyway unless I can find online here in the next few days. If I do buy it you know I am going to have to make a mold of it and make them for the US market. I gotta toss ideas around here. Though it would be nice to have a one of a kind setup

I dont care as long as it looks good. I hate the square headlight hole ones and I hate the ones that try and go over the fenders. You still got that friend looking to lose one? Like I said, I am desperate to get one.

I think the green one is the old KAMINARI not KAMEI bumper. Hard to come buy. Black Dragon sold a replica sometime ago. The duck bills look to be Datsun 510 bills adapted to fir the SA.
This is the biggest SA/FB in JayDeeEmm land I know of;

Hey buddy, I reckon if you cut off the last few inches of an S2/3 kamei lip it will fit an S1 after a quick check
