Let me see if the shop that wrapped my car still has them. I had them removed because I like the look better.

You could make that with Lexon. Just cut out the shape with a jigsaw.

You can get Lexon at Menards/Lowes

Well I don't know the specs. Won't be too easy and will kinda look funky I think.

When the conversions were popular for the first style Nismo, guys were cutting pieces from black plastic trash cans for the protectors. Shape wise you can get pretty close using pictures. I did a thread a while back someone asked about these. I'll see if I can find , mght help.

This will give you a good idea of the shapes, the attach only to the bumper and use plastic rivets, if you can find the rivets elsewhere do it because they are roughly $4+ a pece and you need like 12 of them. It's towards the end of the thread you will see the pics of the protectors.

Requesting pics of Nismo front fender lining

Just because something is custom doesn't mean it has to be hack. You should buy the OEM pieces if you are worried though.

Hack? The material is strong yet easily conforms to the slight bend to the bumper and is the correct color. Plenty of guys have used it as a cheap alternative instead of almost paying almost as much for the protectors as the price of a Nismo bumper itself.

I was only say he should buy OEM if he doesn't feel confident in his skills. However, I think he should atleast try doing the DIY. I also wasn't saying DIY pieces are hack.
