Check your facts, both of these bumpers are made of FG. This is not an OEM Nismo bumper, those have been discontinued for a while now and were never made for the 05/06. Its an aftermarket bumper made to look just like the Nismo with some improvements (license plate bracket delete).

I like the look of the KuRookie if a car is slammed like Marcus ride, if not the Nismo.

You could always have a shop customize a center vent.

What about ducting the two vents to the center? Maybe adding a fan?

Both are great options, but I'd have to go w/ Nismo.

I'm just wondering how the rookie would look w/ your OEM sides. Not sure the lines would be as clean unless you got some skirts too. I think you could get away with it either way if you went Nismo.

My $.02
