2015 Nismo Bumper on 2009 Sport possible?
 
I guess i should start with, is the new 2015 Nismo front bumper even available for purchase yet? Hopefully someone on here has soon it?

#2) I was recently in an accident and luckily just my front bumper was damaged. I want to replace it with something nice. The best i found is the new Nismo front bumper. My concern is will it fit? (assuming can get it)

Thoughts???

The car is pretty much exactly the same since 2009. I have no doubt it will "fit" but you might encounter having to purchase other parts similar to converting to the original Nismo front bumper. You may have to buy a different under tray and components like the DRL's.

Masterbeatty 08-15-2014 12:32 PM

I was thinking the same thing, Would love the whole kit. Its probably safe to say that the conversion is the same as the previous years nismo kit. But i have yet to see it on sale anywhere so we just gunna have to wait it out.

aszyd 08-15-2014 12:37 PM

The 2015 bumper looks to be shaped more like the base bumper, so I'm hoping that they decided to use the same under tray and other bits on this one.

rfisc2170 08-15-2014 12:40 PM

Crap so no one has seen it yet. I went to the parts site, it shows 2015 nismo, but the sketch looks like the 2014. I'll just have to call the dealership. I'll keep you guys posted!

I already did this.

Does Photoshop count? :ugh2:

Man you got some photoshop skills!

Masterbeatty 08-15-2014 12:54 PM

^Im not going to lie, that is a hack job. But i still think it looks bad A$$ from accross the room.

Driftomodachi 08-15-2014 01:07 PM

It doesn't match well imo

Asheth 08-15-2014 01:12 PM

I think it will look great depending on if the fender flares are just add-ons

that looks pretty good. but that red... makes the car look like a roach.

rfisc2170 08-15-2014 05:45 PM

Damn i got really excited for a second Cooltoy! It does look good. I'm definitely not putting on the red. I called Nissan today and the part is available but its on back order. We'll see how it goes tomorrow when i drop it off at the shop.

Z1 has it for sale for $370.00. That's just the bumper skin.

KaienZ34 08-16-2014 08:48 PM

It's not on Z1's site.

MACSIMIZER 08-16-2014 09:09 PM

That's the totally messed up part about it, someone please find a cheaper alternative.

ufoz8mycow 08-16-2014 10:12 PM

Hey cooltoy, any chance you'd be willing to change the colors on that chop you did to a black cherry with sunburst bronze wheels and bronze accents on the bumper and headlights? Maybe add a ducktail rear spoiler if you're feeling generous? I'd like Z1 to take my money for one of these bumpers immediately.

KaienZ34 08-16-2014 10:58 PM

Anyone know the measurements on the led's? Or give Z1 a shout and see if they can measure the openings for the led's?

FLUJOKE 08-17-2014 12:23 AM

I do want this kit but I'm waiting for better aftermarket selections for the 13+. There's gotta be something in the work besides this and 2 lips!?! I rather has the red seats!!!!

aszyd 08-17-2014 12:40 AM

Do want! Magma Red w/ 3M DI-NOC Carbon wrap for the accent trim please! I may have to give them a call...

yea...if you wanted to cheap out, you could make a fiberglass mold, and throw these into it:

X.DRL - LED Lighting From The Retrofit Source

figure out a way to make a clear lens to go over it. anyway, im growing to kind of like this bumper..

tvickerman 08-17-2014 07:17 PM

I would love to toss this fender on my '10 Magnetic Black Roaster...

Not an easy task, as there are very few images available, but I hope this gives you an idea.

By the way trust me, the duckbill is back there, just hard to see because of the suns reflection. ;):icon23:

On a side note, did anyone notice that the headlights are on at the same time as the DRLs are on the new Nismo?

I would love to convert to the new front bumper on my MY12.

Yeah, they said the price is just for the bumper without any accessory. It is missing the red cover and i'm sure a bunch of stuff plus the led's but like chops said you can create a mold of them.

BBRSpeedWorks 08-18-2014 09:28 AM

"Bryan,



The Fascia is $370 with the running lights running $800 each and the finishers running $49 each. We also have the sides in stock however pricing has not been set.



Thanks,"

This what I got from z1 not sure how I feel about this right now

$800 for running lights each!?? Damn that is expensive I would go aftermarket and do custom ones and probably custom lighting as well

DIGItonium 08-18-2014 10:45 AM

Awesome! Someone needs to carbon wrap the clipped portions. ASAP! PRONTO! TAKE MY MONEY! :D

Thank you sir, my imagination can take it the rest of the way. Now just to find out how much the LED DRLs are going to cost..

edit: $800 each for the LEDs?!?!?!??!?!!? WTF

BBRSpeedWorks 08-18-2014 11:19 AM

I plan to get as soon as the release the side skirts and rear bumper. I well make carbon fiber mold for the inserts to solve the $1600 running lights...

^This, and please make something for the red finisher crap at the bottom of the front bumper like DIGI said. :tiphat: I was going to paint them black or body color anyway, CF is much better.

x1000. Replacing those red add-on bits with CF would be tits.

aszyd 08-18-2014 01:30 PM

That was the same response that I got. I also asked if it would bolt straight to the base car without having to replace the under tray or fender liners, etc. Z1 said yes, but that he would collect more info.

If I buy the bumper, I'm not getting the DRLs, at least initially. Way too expensive of an add-on. It makes me wonder if I can swap the 2013 DRLs over to it. The fit doesn't look perfect, but they may slot in there somehow.

lesper4 08-18-2014 02:45 PM

Wait what, $800 per DRL?

6spd 08-18-2014 03:26 PM

The first company to make a replica light that fits will bank no doubt, cough cough hurry up, i want to spend my money cough cough.

$800 leds... O_o wtf?
