yea in my original post I included 2 CF splitters I bought from Ebay. They fit on the right and left edge of the bumper, I tried them and they didn't look good and I didnt want to drill holes in my bumper. So I just scrapped the CF pieces all together and the strip looks just fine.

 

wow this looks rly nice, wat a great mod for my nismo im gonna get this done for sure. one question, do you have to trim the sides at an angle?

 

there is no carbon fiber in those pictures though, thats why im wondering

 

phatice yea after you glue the strip on just use scissors to cut at your desired angle


thechronic yea I had it on my original post since that was my project at the time, but I scrapped the CF splitters and just left it the way it is. I just updated my original post and took the pictures of the splitters off, they were some random ebay splitters that are universal, they looked something like this

 

so should i be using more than just 3m double sided tape? a lil worried about it coming off from random scraping on driveways.

 

you seen the pictures on my first page? the snow and ice ? well the 3M tape from Lordco I bought is still holding up really well. In my opinion 3M tape is all you need, I've scraped and snowplowed snow and it's still on.

 

does 3m make different kinds of double sided tapes? or is there only one kind? i don't want to get the wrong one lol

 

hell yeah, also look out for me for a OEM front lip.. i need that in my life.

 

yea man it should work fine for any bumper I think. But the Nismo front naturally had an inch wide design on the bottom which was just perfect for this strip.


I updated pics of how the strip should be applied as well on the first page as well.

 

bump. im going to do this on my Data system lip and get some good pics. give me a few weeks or so. i need to get my lip repainted.

anyone have any other pics? PinoY?

 

I'll take some pix this weekend.

The only thing I did diff is cut the corners with little more angle to make it flow more with the bumper.

Looks good on the side and front

 

Awesome job man.. Looks great

 

Wow...This is one best DIY thread ever.

You have made Nismo front bumper looks better.

Is DIY Homedepot side skirts coming?

The weather finally cleared up enough to do this to my bumper..

Just got the Kuruma Z bumper a few weeks ago.. IMHO it was missing some black at the bottom.. My previous bumper was the factory 3-piece aero kit which had a black outline between the bumper and lip..

Anyways, pretty easy job.. Had to adjust it a few times because the 3M tape was showing too much.. Definitely try to get black (I could only find gray).. and if its too thick attach it a little further back if you want to keep it flush w/ the bumper.. Im still debating if I want to trim it like everyone else has been doing..

 

Thanks for the updates Adon.. Everyone is going to be driving around with garage weather striping on their G's now Im going to do this once I go aftermarket lol. No point in putting cf down there and scrapping the **** out of it.
Looking forward to them.. Bet it will look very nice on your IP
