Default Just Nismo Rear?

Hello, I've got a '15 Magma Red Sport. With the exception of a few minor upgrades - leather, exhaust, intake, a tune -- and maybe springs, I plan on keeping the car pretty much as is. I even really like the factory Rays on this car! The only thing I'd like to do to the exterior, is to add the Nismo rear bumper. From what I've read on the forums - it should mount up fairly easily, right? After reading .. my questions are:
1. I see where the 2015 Nismo rear spoiler hatch comes down further than the the one on my Z -- so if I use the 2015 Nismo bumper, there is a gap where they come together. Can I use the 2014 Nismo rear bumper instead? and will that be different?

2. I know appearances are always very subjective -- but -- will it look odd to ONLY do the back bumper - and not do the side skirts or the front Nismo bumper (which Im not fond of, anyway)? I do have the factory mudflaps and I like the looks of those on the car.

3. I understand that its still better to order the factory Nismo wheel well liners rather than the filler pieces to assure there's not fitment gaps - anything else additionally I need to order? My local body shop guy is very good -- and willing to try whatever I want -- but I need to be pretty specific about what and how!

Thanks so much --

I have a buddy who did this to his car. All he did was buy a 2015 Nismo bumper, painted it and installed it. He said no additional fabrication was needed. I seen it today and it sat perfect. Just be careful with removing and installing the bumpers so you don't break any tabs. One thing that i did notice is that it was a little flimsy like he forgot to bolt something in on one side.
