Are you happy that you did the Nismo 15+ front conversion? Does it look proportionate or does it look out of place?

If I were to do it, I would definitely do skirts. Blades at the very least.

I absolutely love mine! Looks perfect.

I believe he is on Tein S-Tech/Megan combo.

You'll need to plan for side skirts and the rear bumper.

Bryzed · 09-27-2019, 02:06 AM

Agree that it needs the side skirts

EZT · 09-28-2019, 08:57 AM

I did lower mine, but I’m not running the side skirts, but I do have a Fly1 rear diffuser.

Didn't realize these were fake Nismo bumpers. I thought they were OEM.

V2 Nismo front is nice but man I do like V1 Nismo bumper, anybody else agree?

I second this! It reminds me of the 280z with it's elongated front end. But the cost...sheesh!

Ventruck · 01-10-2020, 07:41 PM

My paint was peeling on the standard front bumper. That, and a lot of scrapes under with the lip ready to go. So it's like "why not?" do the Nismo switch, while I was throwing money at the labor/paint. The OEM DRL's was just OCD on my part. I didn't want to risk finding out later that a CS or Evo R or custom idea would sour with time. Fits, plugs and plays. Paying for that was basically like pulling off a band-aid.

Was meaning to do skirts+rear. Been in between other expenses and possibly shopping for another (additional) car. However I went in with the mindset of painting the accents to help hide the disproportionate look.

If my original bumper wasn't going, I probably wouldn't have touched this at all. But such is life, and my current commute has less risk of scrapes.
