Hmm, never seen that rear bar. Looks like some sort of dealer option, or perhaps aftermarket.

I bet John will know.

maybe it is limited edition like the earlier 240z. I never paid much attention to a RX-2 back in the days so I cant tell you much.

That's after-market bro. Sure about it. Probably made by Amco.

I used to see these things all the time on 240Z's and I hated them on there. It doesn't look much better on a Deuce IMO. Those things give a bumper some kind of shopping cart look.

I had a 72 coupe back in 84 that had that bumper. If my memorys correct it also had a badge that said coupe on the left Lower side of the trunk like the r100's. Anytime we seen those bumpers after that we would call them coupe bumpers.
