05-06 Sedan Owners -- CF Bumper Lids-Make or Break?

okay I was debating on getting this done and seeing if there is a market for it.

I'm working on a cf gialla style grille to be done and to accent it have the cf bumper openings...

yes or no?

feedback please

and if yes, how much would you pay (realistic)

I think that'd look sick with the cf gialla grill! I say go for it, because that isn't what they will surely look like from just placing it in front of the ducts. Stand out. you're already far enough out there with all of those exclusive parts put in your car ;]

I'd get them...what happened to the CF front lip you mentioned a few months ago? I'd love one of those.

1. I would get them if they were more sunken in. They stick out and look ugly right now. I would like to pay no more than $120 for the bottom grills seeing they have no real purpose other than cosmetic.

2. Do you have any draft pics of the CF grill?

On a side note: do you guys know any 05 06 owners with fog lights in the bottom grills/vents (where the CF grill is now)? I want to install some just like the coupes have.

I think those would look good paired with the Gialla style grill. I would definitely be interested (I would buy the grill in a hearbeat) if you were able to get them made. It would look great on DG.

I would do some on my nismo if they made them.

Also a CF trunk lid would be hot!!

They look like they are sticking out. I don't think they look very clean yet...

they are not made for the 05-06 bumper...its made for a coupe nismo front....I just put it there with tape to get a visual how it would look. it seems like I'm getting mixed views because it is not made to fit (yet).
