NISMO Bumper with Factory Sides w/ Mudflaps

Can you guys post some of your NISMO Bumpers with the Factory Sides/ with the mudflaps?

I'm contemplating just getting mudflaps and have them molded into my current sides (I have the 06 sport sides).

Thanks!

I'd say it looks "okay" with the splash guards. But it would look better with Ings+1 skirts.

From a side profile it kind of lines up, but if you look at it from a 3/4 front view, it doesn't flow at all IMO

Man, I was in line to get these Kenstyle side skirts but that didn't fall though. I could always get the IMPUL side skirts from Klumzyee...those seem to match pretty well. Big different between $100 for mudflaps and $400 for the side skirts (and these aren't even painted).

If you mold them and have to repaint the sideskirts, then the price really isn't that much more. You can also sell your sport sides to recoup some of your cost. I'm not a fan of doing thing halfway, and those kenstyle sides wouldn't have flowed very well either. Impul or INGS is the way to go, or even nismo sides

Hmm could point with the molding and repainting fees.

Dangit, should've bought a set when Klumzyee was selling for liek $280 shipped. Now they are back to $400 shipped.

You're absolutely right, I could sell my sport sides...and my sport front bumper to make up for the prices a bit. Not a bad idea.

Dude.. if you get sideskirts, the sides will be lower than the Nismo.. That's what happened to me when I had Nismo/Kenstyle sides. The Nismo actually fits well with no mudflaps or with them..

You guys keep posting side profiles, when you look at it from this angle though, its pretty obvious it doesn't line up, the nismo flares out too much on the edges and doesn't flow well

I always thought the NISMO was much lower...but in these pics...they don't look that low........

Now that would look really really messed up if my sides were lower than my front.

Yeh that 3/4 angle view looks kind of wack. But it'll look weird too if the IMPUL sides come down farther than the front bumper.
