Same feeling. Good thing I don't like the rear bumper on this nismo either. The lower part of the front bumper reminds me of an aventador I like.

Any more pics of the rear bumper installed? Really torn between this and the rear add-ons...

I am thinking there wouldnt be a gap like that if you also had a 2015 rear hatchlid spoiler? Also, the 2015 rear bumper cover you have fitted, does it require new fender liners like the front bumper requires them?

On the subject, has anyone fitted a 2015 rear spoiler? I did see Juan's post in the sponser section but still no answers as to mounting and if it uses existing holes.

There would not, the 2015 Nismo is a single unit that sits on top of the whole rear hatch and thus meets together with the rear bumper seamlessly. That is why the rear bumper sticks out some, to accommodate the spoiler.

In this image you can see how it is a one piece that sits on top of the hatch.



If you were to put the 2015 spoiler on a non-Nismo 370Z or a pre-2015 Nismo, there would be an overhang.

Ah... that gap. So that NISMO spoiler extends down to the edge of the trunk lid just to fill this gap, eh? Good to know.

I called it when the new Nismo pictures first came out. Suspected there was going to be a gap.

Will a new Nismo front bumper fit on a 2009 370z base model?
