Nissan GT-R R35 OEM front bumper from the DBA model
inventory at Buy Mustang parts Ltd, the Nissan GT-R R35 DBA Front Bumper (2012–2016) is a high-demand item, frequently used by owners of the earlier CBA (2009–2011) models for a more modern “facelift” conversion.
1. Technical Identification & Fitment
The DBA bumper is visually distinguished by the addition of integrated LED daytime running lights (DRLs) and double-canard fins in the side vents.
| Feature | Specification |
| Model Years | 2012 – 2016 (Facelift 1) |
| OEM Part Number | FBM22-KB60H (Supersedes 62022-KB60H) |
| Nismo Spec Part # | FBM22-89S0H (Features more aggressive ducting) |
| Chassis Compatibility | Direct fit for DBA; Bolt-on upgrade for CBA (2009–2011) |
Conversion Note: If selling this to a CBA (2009–2011) owner, they will also need the DBA-specific lower undertray and LED DRL units, as the CBA components will not align with the new bumper’s inner mounting points.
2. 2026 Market Value & Sourcing
As of 2026, original “No-Paint” factory units have become more expensive due to Nissan’s shifting production focus.
| Condition | Estimated Price (USD) | Listing Strategy |
| New OEM (Unpainted) | $2,100 – $2,400 | “Genuine Nissan – Ready for Paint.” |
| Used (Grade A) | $800 – $1,100 | “No Tab Damage – Factory Paint Code.” |
| Used (Grade B/C) | $450 – $600 | “Ideal for Track Repairs or Wraps.” |
3. Strategic Advice for Buy Mustang parts Ltd
-
The “Facelift Kit” Upsell: Don’t just sell the bumper cover. In 2026, the most profitable way to move this is as a “DBA Conversion Bundle.” Include the bumper, the LED DRLs, and the mounting grommets (Part #01281-00111).
-
The “Undertray” Problem: Most used bumpers come without the front lip or undertray. If you have the OEM Front Bumper Under Cover (75830-KB51A), it can add an extra $800–$900 to the total sale value.
-
Aerodynamic Benefit: Market the DBA bumper for its functional performance. It reduces the drag coefficient from 0.27 to 0.26 and increases front downforce by roughly 10% compared to the CBA design.
4. Inspection & Quality Control
-
Mounting Tabs: The most common failure point is the “ears” where the bumper meets the fender. If these are torn or repaired with zip-tie stitches, the value drops by 50%.
-
The “Lower Lip” Scrapes: Almost every used GT-R bumper has “rash” on the bottom edge. While the bumper cover might be fine, check the interlocking slots where the lip attaches. If these are stretched, the lip will sag.
-
Tow Hook Cover: Ensure the small circular tow hook cap (622A0-KB50A) is included. These are frequently lost and cost ~$40 to replace individually.
