That's the first time I saw it was on that white sedan Maybe ARCH can find something similar to it and modify it?

1) Nismo
2)k2 ( with oem grill option)
3)rookie

other thoughts
would be nice if the undertrays fit.

Only reason I havent bought anything yet is no POLY.

I have been asking vendors for a bumper since last oct, so ill be ready to buy, but wouldnt want to tie up deposit for the whole few months process.

05-06 Nismo Poly. I think I'm going to have to repaint to take care of all the tiny rock chips anyway, and to delete the license plate cleanly too, so I might as well do it with something good.

$500 shipped sounds pretty good, but I wouldn't be able to do it until I'm moved back to the states (6 months or so).

I too would like to see an 05-06 poly Nismo available. If ARCH is only going to make one style it seems more logical to make one that will appeal to the masses as Ashley said. It's just a good business decision for them. I would be happy with a poly Kurookie as well but it doesn't make as much sense.

Here's where I have to voice my opinion on body kits in general -

If it's a body kit that looks like a kit, you're just one of these:


Dressing up to fit in.

Make it clean, make it fit perfect and "Stay Classy".

Not to threadjack, but this site claims to have a sedan nismo aero-style bumper in poly:
http://www.aitracing.com/index.php?m...oducts_id=1420

Do they straight-up suck or what?

If they're legit, no need to build another nismo mold.

Which is why I'm wondering if it's legit, or just crappy reference pics?

There must be a reason why no body on the forums ever talk about buying that bumper from them

the dude i sold my M45 19's to had that exact bumper. it looked pretty good in person but he said the fitment was horrible and since it was poly it was tough to fix. plus as i remember the paint job he had on there was pretty cheap lookin. i think he said even though it's advertised as an 05-06 bumper it looked like it was ment for the 03-04 lights. the look of the bumper is pretty much a cross between the Nismo coupe and the 05-06 sedan front w/an integrated lip. hope that helps.

Thanks for the insight.
That said, Poly Nismo's w/lip still the one I'd go for.
Sportec looks great with an intercooler behind it, but if not, it's too smiley.

For reference for people unfamiliar with these:
Nismo w/lip:


Nismo:


Sportec:


Kurookie:
