I have a 1978 280 z And I love the car but I hate the safety bumper that just keeps going and going. I like the way the bumper is on the 240 Z and I was wondering if there was any way to transfer the bumper off of a 240 on to my 1978 280. Am I crazy or is it something that could be done for a reasonable amount of time and trouble? Thanks

Yes it can be done. But the 260 bumpers bolt right on to the 280.

I thought that the 260 had the same safety bumpers as the 280. Anyway how do I do it? In the diagram that I have it looks like the entire mounting system has to be changed to mount the early bumpers.Also the mounting brackets seem to stick out farther than the early bumpers will allow. Thanks for the help.
