If you guys give me a heads up on how many want the front 2 pieces in CF, I will make them..... but without knowing how many are willing to commit it's not worth forking the money for the mold.

What about the rear, is the red an extra piece like up front or is it just painted.

How is the wiring for the DRL's? Is it really involved or is it close to plug and play? Did you have to take apart interior panels for the wiring? I'm on the fence about getting the front if the wiring is a PITA...lemme know

Pretty much if you have a 13+ it would be plug and play. The drl's have a Socket like the ones that come on the 13+ bumper.

Any of these write ups will work

I can ask on the facebook group I know of 3 other people that have the front bumper conversion. How many people would you need?

I know they are different shape.... I dont think that they will fit.

Just my 2 cents my friend!

Anything can be done with molding and cutting, you should know that Carlos after your lip mod. Question is the cost. Yes, they are different, but how much different? The 2014 DRLs seem flatter then the 2015 Nismo DRLs, so who knows how they would integrate.

The problem is with the actual size of the LED's behind the bumper. They run long vertically. I tried after taking them off my 14 bumper.

Custom brackets could be built, opening reshaped. It all depends on the cost.

If someone lets me borrow the 2015 DRL I can 3d scan and see if we can make an adapter piece to run with aftermarket DRL or something.... IF there is a demand

Here is a pic of the 2015 Nismo DRL's for reference

OK for those of you who have done the rear bumper is there anything special I need to know. From what I read there are fender extenders also for the rear is that correct? Any other parts besides the bumper and accents needed? Anything I need to forewarn the body shop about so I am prepared.

My plans got accelerated on doing this thanks to someone behind me deciding a red light meant don't slow down or even stop.
