I'm not talking about an M2-1001 or D-Tech variant, this was definately M2-1002 type ...
arrive in Japan make a virtually identical bar to the M2-1001 item
while the Japanese may not be particularly precious about modifying their M2 cars you only have to see the price of the parts on JYA to see how sought after they are - for example £500 for M2-1001 fuel filler lid and £350 for guage pod are pretty steep by anyone's standards ...
the M2 cars are very sought after and collectible in Japan with the 1001's and 1028's fetchinf VERY high prices for low mileage and unmolested examples
Ah, I getcha....but you did say 1001 bumper :lol:
The Fusion bar is attractive as it doesn't require cutting through the shelf to fit. Once you do this, then you have to get the carpet properly cut and bound.....Plus, Jap bars never arrive with clear instructions, so its a bit of a guess where to cut.
Fuel filler on the 1002 is kind of boring; its a standard lid with a lock on it. I've seen 1001 gauge pods sell over here for under £100. Select Imports have brought a few lookie-likies, with M2 kit on. The gauge pods end up being taken out, as useless (difficult to put a mph calibration); thats something I am going to have to look into. Apparently the speedo uses a standard Roadster cable, so you can regear it to read 0-180 mph. Not my cup of tea, so I'd welcome ideas how to make a mph speedo face.
I think this car still has the original bumper on, its just that one bit has fallen off; no chipping on the bumper to denote a resprayed item.
I've been tracking M2 prices for some time now; 1001s haven't appeared at auction since April now.There was a big release of them onto the market when the NC came out. The cheapest, landed 1001, a repaired grade car, would be about £6k landed. 1002s are a bit cheaper. 1028s don't fetch quite as high prices; the 1001 remains the daddy.
