i understand that this is a very simple question, but admittedly i am very unfamiliar with 240sx and their parts so i figured i’ll risk being embarrassed.

I want to know where i can buy the screws that attach the kouki front lip onto the bumper. I fastened the lip onto the bumper with the screws but i used my hands and clearly i did not tighten them enough and the outer most screw came off. the end of the lip is now dangling.

maybe canadian tire might have the screws if i show them one of em?

i’d have to agree, if youre gonna drive you car hard at all…best bet is to ziptie the bumpers cause you got a better chance of them just falling off in a minor collision and being salvagable.

if you need something very secure, you need to get “extruded U type cage nuts”.

drill a hole on the bottom of the bumper, slide the clip over it, and now you have a threaded hole where you can bolt the lip to.

good body shops will have these.
