like urs.
keep it up....maybe i'm just biased towards black rims, but i really want to see those sevas back on your car man!!

Rookie there's no rear valence out there that fits the 05/06 so I think you'll have a bigger market if you can make one for us 05/06 guys that valence and the front bumper would sell well and we can pick and choose between the different side sills that are already out to suite or tastes.

I agree with Chico I have th stillen side sills and due to the lines the light on them make them look lighter than the car eventhough I know it's a perfect match with the paint.
Rookie now that we are pretty sure we can do with out the side sills can we speed up production on a rear valence?

and the paint match is perfect at all angles

The Nismo, stillen, extreme dimensions, etc... none of them will fit the 05/06 bumper.

The Nismo looks like it adds onto the lower rear of the bumper, and fills in the black bottom. The 05-06 almost seems like it already has that hump designed in, how close to the exhaust could the valance realistically get?
rookie you're right about the different between the 05/06 rear bumperh and the 03/04. The problem is that with out mud guards on the rear of the 05/06 theres about 3 different lines where the bumper attaches to the C pillar on the 05/06 and then another line around the wheel well where our mudd guards attach to the C pillar and rear bumper. I can't find any pixs of 05/06s with out the rear mudd gaurds which cover this busy area up and it's not so noticable on a stock 05/06 but when you add a body kit to your car it sticks out...
Now an easier modd would be more on line of something on the sides of the 05/06 like you mentioned modifed splash guards but they would need to flow better witih the nismo side sills and the new front bumper.

I love the idea of a modified mudguard. I want it to actually look like the oem aero rear lip. (the sides at least) I dont like how the rear mudguard is covering 1/4th of the fender

Hey Chico, can you measure with a tape measure from the corner of the sidemarker (towards the headlight) to the lowest point of the bumper with the lip?
This would pretty much answer the height question.
