you said you wanted an upgrade that's subbtle and not too agressive. The Nismo is your answer. It's almost like a factory upgrade that's not too noticeable. The same reason i hated it at first, but after needing to replacing my bumper i went with nismo because it lines up perfectly with oem splash guards so it doesn't require side-skirts that just about any other front would require. Don't get my wrong, OEM+lip is a good way to go as well. But you wouldn't have posted the question had you wanted to stay stock. Nismo vents are bigger and show off more of the intercooler.

What's a good price for the Nismo bumper + paint?
Thanks,

Mine is a Nismo replica made of Urathane from KLUMZEE( a vendor on the site) the fitment was good it cost me $400 for paint and fitting I cant remember the cost of the bumper off hand. I have all stock body work other than the Nismo front and I am lowered on Bilstien coilovers.

How much are you lowered? I just got the BC Racing coilovers and will be dropping after I get the JWT TT installed...
Thanks,

All stock exept the Nismo replica. I am not even sure how much I am lowered I forgot to write down my stock measurments but from the ground to the edge of the fenders is 24.75" front and 26" at the rear. here a few more pics of the front as you requested from some diff angles a couple before I was lowered.

I think I've decided on my body upgrades...
Going with the Nismo replica bumper (Klumzyee) and the Chargespeed hood. I've heard the Chargespeed fits great and I like the look of those hood fins.
Thanks!

Good luck!
