240sx Bumper on a s5?

I've really never looked into it. But a friend said with some minor work, that it could. He's usually retarded so I have a hard time postin this but, feedback appriciated anyways.

yes it does, but if you read what he said he's simply repeating something his friend said, which even he thinks is incorrect.

what is correct is a 240 lip fits

ive owned the 240 and while it is a pretty sexy car, rx7 owns in looks all the way. its soo smooth and fits the line well. as for lips...i didnt know that the 240sx lips fit the rx7. this is interesting cuz i cant seem to find a lip i like yet.

food for thought...

s13 is 2 inches wider the FC...
s14 is 4 inches wider than FC...

it just wont on fit! unless yo hack it down the middle and destroy a perfectly good bumper only to realize the DIY fiberglassing was a waste of your time and money and looks like ****.

The lip on the other hand seems to fit. ive seen the 89-90 pignose zenki lip on a few RX7s.

s13 lips belong on s13's

s4 lips belong on s4's

two different cars...two different design cues...two different looks.


(s4/5 is sexier anyway )
