Default Amuse style body kits

Does anyone know if there are any body kits for a Tiburon that look like the 370Z Amuse kits?

If you have a good bodyshop around you, you could always buy a replica that's cheap, chop the bottom of the Amuse bumper off, chop the top of your factory bumper off, and mold/fuse the two together. Not only would it fit like OEM since you would be using the OEM mounting points, but it would be pretty custom and one off that know one else has.

Fiberglas is pretty easy to work with so find a durflex POS knock off and a mold it yourself. FG reinforcement will help the bumper's longevity and allow for some modification. Plus like Visionz said, it'll be unique and as a DIY custom work you can take pride in.

^ for $200 for the fake Amuse bumper, plus maybe another $200 for an OEM tib bumper you could do it yourself in your spare time and when it's all said and done...you're probably at around $550-600 for something truly custom.

If that much!



$50-100 for a bumper cover at Pull-a-part

$8 for a decent amount of FG twill weave at home depot: http://www.homedepot.com/p/3M-Bondo-...0128/202077813

$16 for enough resin to do this job a few times over: http://www.homedepot.com/p/3M-Bondo-...0122/202077790
