Yes, I saw a picture of the kit directly from the side, and the sides of the front bumper are clearly lower than the front of the bumper. This would hinder the normal going-out-of-the-driveway-at-an-angle tactic. The length was confirmed per one of Origin's ads on a Japanese magazine - they pointed out the height of the kits from the mounting points (i.e. fender) to the bottom of the bumpers. The SC bodykit was the largest, at 500mm.

A friend of mine has the Origin front end with Vertex sides and rear. The car also has 19s and Supra Eibachs. I don't think the word low does it justice. I'm afraid to drive the thing for fear of tearing something off. It does look really good though. He said the front bumper fitment was perfect too.

This is why I am not into the front bumper body kit so much.
What do you guys think of 97 OEM front bumper with the Origin side and rear bumper kit?
Would those match the 97 OEM front bumper look?

I am up for this idea if they don't look too bad. I have seen many broken front bumper body kits because they are made with fiber (It takes only one bump to crack it). Side and rear bumper has less chance to be cracked.

What do you think?

It will look awkward with the sides lower than the front.

I agree, I think the sides/rear will be lower than the front, however maybe a front lip spoiler will solve that.

Version Select = Vertex knockoff

Orgin = new front bumper, sides and rear similar to Vertex

Orgin front is a very different design than the Version Select / Vertex front thats for certain.

Most likely they are manufacturered in the same factory. Fitment has very good from all reviews I've read from Verion Select and Orgin kit owners. Its no wonder so many reputable companies are going under when knockoffs can be had with good quality, low prices and in stock in the US.

Origin Labs (www.origin-lab.com) is its own, independent aero company. All their kits are designed by Kazuya Bai/ "Chunky" Bai/ "Drifter XL" who drives for Signal Auto. The fitment is generally good, and NONE OF THEIR KITS ARE KNOCKOFFS

Version: Select (www.versionselect.com) deals exclusively in knockoffs, although the fitment is pretty good.

Both kits are available from Touge Factory (www.tougefactory.com), who are good people in the 240sx community. You can also get D-Drug, another ORIGINAL aero manufacturer, through them.

Please do not post if you don't know what you're talking about.

I like orgin because the bumper hasn't been played out beyond belief like the vertex/VIS/VS front
Just buy spares for when they break haha
