Here's another photoshop of what it might look like without the LEDs and with some mesh in their place.

I like the red stripes on the front inserts. Maybe I should try it and see how it looks on a white car.

Just got the bumper back from paint. Shaved the nismo badge holes.


Also got the inserts back. Wrapped by Imperial Works in Sacramento.

Any installed pics yet? Are you doing anything with the DRL holes (leds or mesh) or just leaving them open?

I'll probably put it on in the next week or 2. Was going to wait until I get the rest of my CF parts clear coated before installing everything.

I wanted to see how the bumper looks installed without the DRL's. If it looks weird I'll just bite the bullet and order them.

What all did you get for the conversion, just the bumper and inserts?

Bumper, long inserts, side inserts and fender plastic add-on.

Does the fender plastic add-on mean you don't need new fender liners?

Yes, according to Juan. Apparently the bumper is slightly wider then stock so the add-ons fill that gap.

So does a real Nismo come with fender liners the same as a stock 370z but with the extenders?

Maybe if anyone has connections at Nissan they could check if the fender liner part number is the same for both Nismo and Stock?

Not sure if it comes with the extenders or not. We could ask someone in the nismo section if they can take a picture of the front inner tire wells. The extenders only cost like $50.

I also wondered if someone could confirm 100% whether the centre section is just left unpainted or if this is supposed to be painted. In some pictures it looks like the finish is good enough just to leave and it others not so much.

Cheers
