Nismo front bumper bottom lip?

I have that gap as well. I think it's normal (or a defect in design)

FYI: Replacing parts with new ones will NOT solve the problem. You will have to use glue/get crafty with some modifications etc.

Or perhaps it IS the design for extra down force and cooling for the BBK!

You guys may have broken one of the brackets on the front bumper that the black plastic lower piece bolts to. I broke one when I hit a curb.

The only way to find out, is to unbolt the black plastic piece.

if the existing part is beat up and not to the exact factory dimensions then it will not fit right. if you have ALL new parts and install them correctly you SHOULD not have a gap...

sry i should have added "ALL" and "SHOULD"

but your also right, well placed zip ties and added securing measures will fix the gaps.... its what im doing instead of buying new sh1t
