Nismo side sills

What is different about the Aero side sills vs. the stock side sills on a 03 Sedan?? They look almost the same......Is it just that they are painted?? Thanks

You are a G35noob so of course you will think they are the same. You are correct about the paint.

A little different in the back part. There is a little shape to it rather than just plain and yes it's painted

Yep. They have a sexy, subtle flair (towards the wheel arch they get wider) to their design that catches light really nice when you wash and wax it. Plus, the crease from the fenders waterfalls into the ends of the nismo sills. The attention to detail and the subtle sexiness of it is second to none. Can't really see it in my crappy thumbnail though.

Thanks. No.
It has been garaged kept and only handwashed/waxed by me on a regular basis. The pic is about 1.5 yrs old, but the car still looks like that. It has not been a dd for the last 6 months since I got the Z, so that helps keep it looking good and the miles down..57kmi.

Just took the car to a shop to get an alignment and a few other things and a couple of customers were just in disbelief at how clean my G is.

Silver is a much more forgiving color and one I would get again. Black on the other hand.. this is my 3rd blck car in about 8 yrs or so; don't think I will get blk again for a long time. They look great cleaned/polished--but it is tough to keep them up.

I take it your car is brilliant silver (hence the user name)?...

If by chance you are DG (and local), I have OEM painted sides and mudguards - sell cheap

Not worth the money to buy the nismos IMO. They don't look different enough to drop $700 on.
