Re-Doing NISMO Front Mold! (need feed-back)

Yep thats right.. fix the undertray problem and clea it up a bit

question..

Do we re-do it back to the original way?

or

tweek it a little bit.. we can change the shape of the front ducts so it looks kinda like the OEM ducting? lower it a little to line up with impul sides?

what do you guys think?

Keep it as is. Double check fitment under the headlights and also the attachment point between the headlights and the grille.

I would say my biggest gripe with the nismo bumper is that the openings in the vents don't match the recessed borders, shouldn't be that hard to trim them a bit larger so they look even all the way around

I'd probably like the Nismo would a bit of flared bottom or even a small openning. like the new Vspec GTR.
