NISMO body kit
I am seriously looking at getting the full NISMO body kit, front rear, and sides. The only question, how difficult is this setup to install? Looks like sides and rear would be no brainer, front bumper cover may be another issue?
The front and the sides can be easily installed. Just take your time. There is one small mod you have to do to the front to make it seat right. It requires you cutting out some of the impact insulation (at least thats what I call it
)
I had the rear proffesionally installed because there are multiple holes that need to be drilled and I didnt want to mess up and have anything mis-aligned. Others here have done it easily without issue.

Sides=Easy (15 minutes each), Front=Moderate (an hour, or so), and the rear is the most difficult. I will take some time. You have to remove the bumper, drill holes, and then reinstall, you will want to give yourself at least a few hours on the rear.
You have to remove the side marker holders from your old front end and re-rivet them onto the new bumper cover. You also need to drill out and remove a couple supports from the bumper cover. Took me ~1 hour.
Rear take a little longer with all the holes.

I have some pics, but I am in Japan for another week. I can post some when I get home. I looks great on the DG (maybe I am biased). I have been meaning to post some pics for a while, so I will do some when I get home next weekend.
