Finishing a Kouki Type X front end conversion on an S13 means more than bolting on the bumper. The J Replace 180SX Kouki JDM Type X bumper extension and speed panel pair supplies the two filler pieces that connect the Type X bumper to the front fenders, sold as a matched left and right set under part numbers OE-62025-60FJP and OE-62024-60FJP.
The late model (Kouki) 180SX Type X bumper has its own panel profile, and USDM 240SX speed panels will not line up with it. Imported Type X bumpers frequently arrive without their speed panels, or with cracked ones that have been glued more than once. A new pair lets the bumper, panel and fender meet cleanly at the wheel arch for the correct factory look.
Nissan 180SX Kouki JDM Type X front bumper, as fitted to the JDM 180SX and commonly converted onto USDM S13 240SX chassis. For cars running the stock USDM Chuki bumper, use the J Replace 240SX Chuki USDM speed panel pair instead.
Mount the bumper and fenders loosely, position each speed panel, then walk the gaps even before tightening everything down. These pair well with the J Replace stamped steel S13 front fenders when rebuilding the whole front end, and they will need paint to match the body.
