BTW, just found an old image of the KS kit (complete with Supra wing ). It appears Wings West makes a replica.

Thanks for the info.

Do you guys know if they come with the buckets for the fog/driving lights or do you have to cobble something together?

I have a used one of those bumpers in my spare bumpers pile. Havent looked at it in 12 months, but from memory the four light holes do not have much for mounting the round lights. Basically just straight thru holes.

I believe there is a mounting bracket assembly that comes with the bumper and screws into the fiberglass from the back and then accepts mounting a light. If its not genuine KS, then I would doubt a replica will come with the light buckets. It will probably be up to you to fab something..

This is just a personal thing, but I think this Knightsport bumper is one of the ugliest front bumpers ever designed for the FD. Hence why it stays in my spares bin lol...
No offense intended :p
