this is a replica of a replica nismo lmao

you're not going to get any airflow through that. The IC is going to sit right behind the middle part of the bumper and will get very little airflow. Please reconsider and pick out something with a big opening like the KarumaZ or Top Secret.

If you're set on this bumper, then don't get the Greddy FMIC. Get one from SFR that has a horizontal twin tank setup that will place a tank behind each opening for optimal airflow. Now THAT will look badass. Similar to the JWT out of the box kit.

I believe that's the one that comes w/the JWT TT.

Doesn't seem like the Nismo will get much more air than the '06 front I'm running now. If you really want maximum airflow, you're gonna have to go with something like: KurumaZ, TS, KS, Greddy, Impul, etc...

The grill is painted , as is the mesh grill in the IC opening and the side openings . Don't think you can powder coat plastic.

this nismo bumper has bigger openings so it would still be better than stock bumper.

better, but not good enough imho...I had issues with my vortech ic behind the stock 03 bumper...

If you plan on running the stock bumper, then call SFR and get their horizontal twin tank setup. It's not that expensive; i think it's the same price as a Greddy IC by itself.

Or, do as other have said and get a bumper with a bigger opening...

Someone mentioned Chargespeed...
