Thumbs up Where to buy a Aero/NISMO kit for my 2003 G35?

Hey Guys,
I just got a 2003 Pearl G35 last week.

I love the Nismo front bumper - where can I buy one of these? Do they come pre painted?

Seen here: https://g35driver.com/forums/media-s...esent-113.html

Thanks!

authentic ones are discontinued but you can still find a few used ones or held stock pop up for sale on various places online. you can also buy the replica front by VIS or a few modded replicas from vendors on here like BausAuto

I've been wondering the same thing too. I've been planning my build and I know for sure that I want to go the Nismo route versus Kurookie, etc. The only place that I see that sells a replica front is KBD, VIS, or ERACINGS. I feel like I'm definitely going to feel remorse after opening it up and almost assuredly finding something lacking in term of quality and fitment so bad that I might want to just stick with my OEM front.

Front Bumper: ?? Which? Where the heck do you get the inserts too??

Rear Bumper lip: The general consensus seems to be the one from Ionic. Correct me if I'm wrong here.

Side skirts: VIS?? I was thinking about just painting my sides. Not sure if it would look awkward with everything else being Nismo reps.

Can anyone also throw out a number of how much a good paint job and installation would come out to approximately. If I went with Vis sides, Ionic rear, and the most expensive front on eBay, I'm looking at $1026.79 shipped to my house before having to pay someone to prep, paint, and install.

Thanks guys, but I think I'm just going to get a stock one, as it needs to be replaced. Anyone have one in Pearl White they would like to sell?

Authentic ones are getting rarer than hen's teeth. I purely lucked into mine earlier this year.

Apparently they are pretty rare. Even more rare to find in EM. I don't think I should hold my breath that anything cool that's painted EM will ever come into market. Any suggestions on a replica one at least?

I want to get the front Nismo bumper and rear Nismo rep lip from Ionic (who doesn't give the option for EM)... thinking about keeping the stock sides and just painting those though.

Baus Auto has good replicas.

Check out my build thread if you want to see what their bumper looks like

Advantage of the replica is that it feels much more heavy duty than on OEM bumper. Seriously its way more flexible and Ive closed doors and dropped it and all sorts of ****

^ I really like your car. I just picked some 19" Rays. That's going to be my first real mod after I get them refinished/repaired in the factory hypersilver. The plans after are plenum spaces, nismo front and rear, Akebono brakes and 35% tints all around.

How much was the bumper shipped? And did they come with the side turn signals shaved already? I want to keep mine. And most importantly, is it fiberglass/poly and how is the fitment compared to the OEM bumper??

Thanks, and the signals were shaved by my body shop, it came with the sidemarker slots molded in, no bracket required. Its poly and the fitment is pretty close to OEM. My only concern is a bit of a gap maybe .3 cm wide at the side of both headlights. But that might be because of the fenders and I am also a perfectionist
