i see... I was thinking of doing it also. I like how the rear looks, but the only thing that is keeping me back from getting is the rear mud guard. I like how it flows with my car. Makes the rear look wider. I am running stock sides with nismo front and 05-06 front lip

Do they make splash guards to fit the nismo sides?

I have an 05 And I have the Nismo sides and think it's worth it. It a small suttle change but it looks good.

If you wanna to trade rear ends let me know.

But I just ordered nismo sideskirts in my color too from taht 19kdrill guy. Last known set in DP in the US, I had to jump on it. It's gonna play off my kit really well. As others have saide, it's a subtle difference. But I KNOW and all the G enthusaists will know that I don't have the full kit. I got away with it, but I finally completed my kit. I'm very happy with my choice. and they finally arrived this morning so I will be installing them tonight!

Right on G SEDAN, congrats on completing your aero kit. If you could post some before/after comparison shots it would be very helpful for those of us thinking about picking up side skirts.

I sure will, I'll try to do some of the same angles

But I think if you guys are conemplating, better jump on the quick! The front and rear quickly disappeared.........once the sides are gone...they're gone!

Marcus has a really good price on his 05/06 mudguards. They're about double the price of his from the dealer. Check out the exterior section in the marketplace.

Yeah, now you can stop being such a poser! j/k man, I never noticed and the sides will really complete the look.

Bad influence but dead on! Looks like I'll be getting some, I don't really want to kick my *** for not getting some when I had the chance.

For Marcus or others who can compare them, what are the differences if any between nismo sides and nisrookie sides? I'm planning to get the kurookie front, would that look ok with either of those sides? I don't imagine that fg sides are as prone to damage as a fg front.
