Would love a poly Rookie, but I'm not wanting to keep my money tied up for 8 weeks while they design this. I will most likely be taking my original FG KuRookie off for winter and going back to stock, so maybe I'll sell that and pick up a poly for the spring.

Will more bumpers be made after this initial group buy?

Is ARCH only contemplating copying an existing design or are they also considering making a new design?

New design will take them more time and labor so I'm unsure if they want to stick to something they can work off or start from scratch.

Since I already have the HikkataDori, I'm not really interested in a new bumper, all I can offer is my own .02

A poly Kurookie would be really awesome. It's an extremely nice looking bumper, not too overkill, etc... and many people on this site would be interested in a poly version

on the other hand

Since Nissan no longer makes the Areo bumper, a replica of it would make a lot of sense, especially if the manufacturer could get in touch with the companies that body shops order replacement parts from. They would have the market cornered on replacement nismo bumpers.

If they did, I'd have one.

No doubt. That's why I'd like to make the repros if no one else will. I already have a retailer list of contacts if I get it off the ground.

HAha great minds think alike! I was gonna post it in blue though.


But it will take a miracle to get one and talk the owner into letting a mold be made from it.

Pnut doesn't even own his car anymore. I have no idea how anyone would get a Sportec bumper these days, it would take a miracle (and likely a lot of money...LOL).

Cali guys would have to comb the area and track down and beg/threaten the new owner. lol

^That's a very good looking bumper. Honestly, I like the grills on that white one.
