That front bumper makes all the difference... always thought the front of the 350z were just a little too plain!
yeah definitely needed something. Hopefully I can avoid scratching it for long enough that I get a few decent pictures of me drifting with it on lol
Welcome to the kbd team 😎👍
Myke Myke oh shit what up up bro been subbed to you for a min. You inspired me to get a z. I live in sac an was wondering if your boy who does the work on yours is he all booked up for a while cus I might need some work done
KBD ftw!
inb4 every other comment is about how I need to clean up the workshop lol
One of your best videos! Laughing all the way through 😂😂😂
Pen on the floor instead of the lid had me in stitches 😂
cheers, glad you enjoyed!
I didn't see anyone else ask, so: when it unrolled, and went into shape, how much fitment work did you have to do? Trimming? Filling? Thanks for a great video! Increased my confidence enough to give it a go. Cheers
The 1970 Plymouth Cuda and Dodge Challenger had an option for an 'elastometric' front bumper the sales brochure states that is made from urethane. Ive seen videos and advertisements of that bumper being hit with hammers.
lol yeah I've seen people hitting these ones with hammers. Didn't realise anyone was making them like this back in the 70s though
I think your new bumper is perfect for the drift car by the way.
cheers, hopefully it survives a bit better than the other one lol
Supporting your channel!!!
Loving the kit 🥂 🔥🎰
You should get one of the Aluminium under trays, that will push the bumper out to where it needs to be and adds a little protection to the under bits for any off track excursions :)
But good vid again.
I did actually buy the metal undertray ages ago lol then never got round to fitting it cos its annoying having to undo all that every time you take the front bumper off (plus half the bolts snapped when I took the original undertray off n I haven't drilled them out yet)
where did you get it from, and did you have to pay import charges? i want to get the n3r bumper but cant seem to find them in the UK.
NICE Kit
May I ask which year is the z? Also did the fender fit the wheel well without any trimming?
What hardware do you use for installation of bumper. What size bolts, nuts, etc?
When is the gt86 coming back? Is the 350z getting skirts and a rear bumper to match the front? Good vids mate, keep it up 🤙
I'm pretty happy with how the rear looks now with the ducktail and little spats at the bottom of the bumper, so probably going to leave it like that until it gets badly damaged lol as for the GT86, think I'm going to sell it but I'll do a video on it soon as a lot of people have been asking what's going on with it
I think it looks very nice
Might be time for a bumper bar of some form
I like the idea but am kinda worried they will blow in the wind on the highway?
What's the name for this repair/connector accessories?
That bumper always has that front part messed up
Great stretched fitment on those front tires! let me guess, 245/40 on 9.5 wheels?
nope, 235/40 on 9 inch wheels
Can't you adjust the centre gap to the bonnet? The bumper would normally be set to the bonnet so there's float/adjustment in the nose section of the bumper (square holes/slots). Losen off the screws and push up to get an equal gap. Looks like it may need packing to lift as well... alternitively, it's a drift car 😂
I'll have a look next time I'm at the unit, but I didn't see any obvious way of adjusting it the way it needed to go initially. Will see how much it stands out when its out in daylight and might just leave it cos #DriftCarInnit
Use the factory plastic undertray to support the bumper from the bottom?
lost the factory undertray ages ago lol but its fine I'll make some kind of support when we do the turbo stuff
why dont you do a rear mount turbo setup :) im planning on doing it in a couple of years
I dunno I just assumed it would mean more lag, more hassle getting pipes all the way back there, and not really much benefit as far as I can see?
its more for a low budjet since you dont have to buy turbo headers and deal with space issu under the hood
Theres a massive debate on my350z about this. Saying lag and no lag. Dyno pulls and videos. Just thought I'd mention that haha
Where'd you get it painted
How did the paint hold up
Link for purchase?
This was hilarious to watch! hehe! Just my type of humor! Would love to just sit in your garage seeing you work swear and complain all the time. :' )
glad you enjoyed laughing at my failures haha
Don’t know why your bumper look not fitment, i have the same bumper they are fit perfect. Even i don’t need that holder at all.
Where did u get the kit
Does it jiggle while driving?
@ChrisDrift how long did shipping take dude? Ordered mine today
It was a while, I think 5 or 6 weeks but can't remember exactly
@@ChrisDrift thank you very much, did you get tracking ? And love the content, hopefully see you at a drift day soon
Where u get the bumper from
which bumper is this
Stop cussing and everything goes better 😂I don’t know why but it helps
Checked the comments for the guy moaning about swearing 😂
Yeah I don't think he will approve of this video lol
Make a video on the gt86
Yeah I'm going to do one soon
I found it so frustrating that you didn't take the wheels off 😂. Would have made it a whole lot easier IMO
Yeah it would have lol but I couldn't be bothered
Is that maritime blue from porsche?
Nah it's Yas Marina blue from bmw m4
Ha! Blew my mind because my Z is maritime blue.. kind of a shifty color. That color from BMW wasn't out yet I don't think when I did mine or I would've chose it haha. I'm z33pat on instagram. Great Z!
GT86 dead? Are you planning on selling it?
not dead but I just don't like drifting it anymore lol so yeah will be selling it at some point
ChrisDrift interesting; why not if I may ask?
mainly because of how the steering feels with the angle kit on it. Tried loads of things and spent too much time n money trying to improve it, but nothing has helped really.
Duraflex?
Kbd
That paint job looks TERRIBLE!
I can see the voids and errors on camera. If you can see it in the video it’s ganna be hella bad in person. I know because I worked at a body shop for 3 years.. Find a new shop bro that’s horrible.
That's why when I get my whole car painted I'm gonna get a Mexican to paint mine...lol They paint pretty good!
15 minute video showing you drill 2 holes and 4 screws 🤦♂️
Could be worse... could be a 19 minute video of someone unboxing a red dot sight eh
ChrisDrift you really felt that insecure you had to hit my profile to justify your self. That video was pretty deep too 😂
Thanks for the view tho bud 👍
