Anyone have this installed that can tell me about the quality and fitment?

What is the diff in quality between fiberglass and urethane parts for body kits?

gracias

 

quality and fitment of what? authentic or replica? and yes, some authentic kits have had some poor fitment. not most. but some.

if replica...theyre all different...depends who you get it from...

i'll be getting mine from klumzyee

he offers it in both fibgerglass and poly. as far as front bumpers go, poly > glass (imo). fitment is guaranteed or your money back/replacement.

 

u should buy mine after i install my kuruma

 

BASTARD! u bought the kuruma....

 

pffffffft. how much?

it's clear bra'd, right?

 

hahahahah sucker

 

yea its clear bra'd.. ill let u know later cuz i dunno yet..

 

The authentic NISMO bumper has a pretty OEM fit. The bodyshop was impressed. It's fiberglass, so it's not going to take an impact without damage, as a urethane version might.

FWIW, the authentic NISMO rear diffuser doesn't fit worth ****. I couldn't take it and ordered the KurumaZ replica diffuser, which has an OEM-level of fitment that matches the NISMO front's fit.

 

thanks ron, what did you pay for your nismo front?

also, do the lower two inlets have any kind of grill over them? mesh or anything?

 

Can't recall the figure, but I did pay whatever www.mynismo.com had it listed for back then. Probably the same price or cheaper now. And it does come with the mesh.

 

Sorry for the double-post. Very little sleep last night.

 

Car looks good, I actually like the look of the NISMO w/ the OEM grill more though... or with some sort of Infiniti badge in the grill (if it's gialla)

 

wow that combo looks terrific!

 

Thank you. Due to my location and client perception, I wanted to remove the Infiniti emblems so that the more auto-ignorant of them wouldn't jump to conclusions. If the wrong person asks, I simply reply 'Nissan makes that.' Few would think that it was only $32K and that many of their domestic trucks cost more.

And the OEM grill was too much of a blingy dress-up item for me. I'm in the process of blacking-out a spare set of '05 headlights, which will be the last cosmetic change... ...unless I keep it and get some bronze CE28N9s to complete it.

^ thanks for the pics, do you know how much that ground clearance exactly is, compare to stock bumper? like 1" lower?
