Hey Edzilla, great build you got going man. I think the AimGain Flares with those Work wheels wheel make a big change. :tup:
So I had a question about your spoiler. I'm waiting on BattleAero to make the Force 2 XL in Carbon Fiber. I heard Thomas recently removed his due to stress cracks ( Not specific on where ). So my question is, how is your spoiler holding up ? :wtf2: |

The stress cracks were a split between the top and bottom half. The battle aero wing had no core or any internal backbone for the rivets to hold onto properly. Therefore causing the wing to flex and potentially break at the rivets. If you were to stand on the wing hollow it would snap inwards. Whereas I reinforced mine but cutting it in two filling it with a foam core and steel sheets under the Fiberglass below the mounting points. I could stand on it mounted to the car if I wanted to.

DYI for the aimgain kit today was day one and already have issues, not that they cant be fixed just wasn't ready for an issues so tedious. but we started with cutting the fender themselves.
-Wheels removal -fender wells removed -and fenders cut * you do have to remove the side blinkers for a flush fitment http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m...pswzhsyf9g.jpg Tools used for fender cutting its important to keep a quarter inch at the bottom of the fender where it attaches to the skirt. There is a line up hole for the flair http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m...pse0k6yomz.jpg |
so the issue was discovered when putting the flair on. I had been told via the sales man that it should fit a sport bumper, well obviously not. ive been told it will work with the same year nismo bumper. other then that option there is the second choice and thats to buy aimgains bumper at 2k plus and 8 months of wait.http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m...psti6walsf.jpghttp://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m...pssl2z6iz1.jpg

Sorry to hear you have problems. I wouldn't justify to pay and wait that long and then arrive to having fitment issues like this going on :shakes head:

I know I mentioned it to you on FB, but to convert the nismo bumper to the sport Z will cost north of $2000, if you do it right. Here are some threads:

Plus the lower lip on the Aimgain bumper looks better than the gigantic snowplow that is the pre '15 Nismo bumper. But thats just one guy's two cents.
