Nismo front end conversion findings

Hey Brandon: How did this turn out? Did you end up just using your base liners etc. with the Niz bumper? I'm thinking about going with either Niz or Amuse

Hey Brandon:

How did this turn out? Did you end up just using your base liners etc. with the Niz bumper? I'm thinking about going with either Niz or Amuse rep bumpers.

BTW: You did receive those burgers ok?

Thanks,

Paul

If you decide to go with the Nismo front bumper, do yourself a BIG favor and spring for the Nismo fender liners (front half) and the ZSpeed undertray.

Trust me on this one.

I plan on going this route. So what you listed above is all that we would need to do the conversion? Ive seen the list of parts before and it was A LOT of parts.

Negative, go with the extended list of parts AND the pieces I mentioned. You can modify the existing parts, but you really need the ZSpeed undertray for the front bumper rigidity.

For what this costs, the extra $150 for the front fender;loner halves is worth it.
