To KurumaZ owners...

At first, i thought you NEEDED aftermarket side skirts to make the front bumper flow with the rest of the car. Then i took a look at the albums and saw some G35's with the stock sports side skirts and it looked just as sick as the ones with the impul sides.

What do you guys think? stock sports sides or impul sides?

There's no law that says you have to do anything but, the KurumaZ bumper hangs down so low it looks much better with sides that match. The difference shows up in the side profile and it very obvious.

Splash guards would help but it wouldn't complete the "Look!" My coupe came with all the sides/splash guards and due to how low the KurumaZ front bumper sits it still wasn't enough for the profile I wanted.

However, I DO think if you get Impul Sides, that it looks WAY better to have a CS rear bumper.

Stock ss sides with guards looks great (in my opinion). Check my garage and you can see my profile. I had this SAME question when I got my Kuruma and I heard the same story about the impul.

FACT - Impul, Kuruma, and CS rear is a dope (although over done) combo. No denying.
FACT - Kuruma, with ss sides and guards also looks good.
FACT - If you get Kuruma plus Impul, YOU NEED the CS to complete the look because the stock rear bumper looks too high even with the guards.

I was worried too and gambled with just the Kuruma and it paid off. You wont be disappointed.

I feel Impul sides and CS rear make the car look too boxy.. I hate how the CS rear has that "ledge" on the bottom.. OEM rear and sides look best still. Throwing on the splash guards makes it look perfect IMO.

I just put my kuruma z on today and i just have stock 2004 sides with splash guards and it looks great, but on the other hand i have the impul to that i haven't got painted yet. I love them both and the stocks are almot making me want to sale the impul but i still dont know yet. They both look sexy you cant go wrong with either one.
