Nismo front question

I'm looking at getting the Nismo front bumper, but I'm worried about how much lower then the stock bumper it sits and how it sits with stock sides w/splash guards. I'm already lowered 1.6 in the front.

If anyone has pictures that would be great, I asked in another thread but never got the answers.

the nismo front is noticeable lower than stock (otherrwise i wouldn't have scraped when i had it), but it's not so low that you can't get around as long as you drive carefully.

imo, the nismo front looks weird with the stock skirts (i used to have this setup). i'm not exactly sure how well pictures are going to help you as people are not going to have the same drop as you and will this portray the actual heigh clearance differently.

I know it won't show the same clearance, but it'll show the same difference between the front and sides.
Thanks.

I dont see a "savefatkids" on this site

dont let hero scare u. The nismo bumper lines up with the stock sides. U can pull it off with the stock sides but I think it looks hot with the impul sides.
