is there a front bumper for these cars that is OEM that looks like a huge lip instead of ugly bumpers? There's one at the junkyard near me that looks sick.

They make all kinds of lips. Most people go with 240 bumpers or none at all. Some of the lip kits have the bumper molded on. I have lip already with brake air ducts, and 240 bumpers ready to go on. Hopefully they will be on this weekend

240z like the last guy said. The stupid post-74 bumper regulations pretty much ruined the lines of every car sold in America for a while. I've read that those bumpers are so heavy on the s30 that there is a very noticeable change in driving feel when you ditch them.

Exactly. Both bumper bars just by themselves weight about 80lbs.
