Thats the plan, I gotta save up about $1500 or so and most likely will try to find a used kit.

may even look into removing the side moldings to clean it up just a touch more...
and even tinting the turn signals..

looks nice tho.

I'm loving the look of this car, just think it would look so much better with a Z front bumper. Just my $0.02

Shaved the mouldings, tinted the orange lenses, put on the rksport lip. not sure if I want just want a lip or a full bumper. I'm trying to find a good picture of z24 bumper to chop it.

What about the Wings West lip for the 95-99 Cavalier bumper? I've always liked it and its not very common.

Yeah I like the wings west lip, only problem with that is it's about $100 more than the rksport lip anywhere I've found it lol. Thats a bad chop and that lip looks nothing like that on that bumper in real life. I'll see if I can steal some bumpers off of other peoples cars and chop 'em onto mine. If anyone can find me some decent pics with front bumpers i'lll see what I can do.

Heres some more front bumper ideas, the angle on these weren't that great so there a bit distorted, and the colours are off because i don't want to spend hours fixing these up and don't really know how to them right.

Z24 bumper


no idea what this bumper is but doesn't look bad


and a quick 03 front end swap


and this is the one I like the most, no idea what bumper this is, is it japan specifically for the toyota cav?

The last one is the TRD front. Gravana tuning carries it.

I love my trd front too lol, I went to down to michigan a couple days after this post and bought that exact bumper in the picture of the black cav off of skills in the michigan regional forum. Have yet to install it, will prob be my summer bumper, the canards are being removed when it goes in to get painted.

This is where it sits now, in the spare bedroom.

Re: Quick chop, something to look forward to in the future

Joker, I would but have no itentions of actually shavin the read handles or front bumper lights. I might do the front door locks since I just installed lock actuators in the doors.

and furious, mine is fiberglass, is yours too?
