Nismo Front....What Sides?

What are your opinions? I have the Nismo front coming in from ArchInd and was wondering what sides I should get, Impul, Nismo, Ings, Impul Poly?

My car is the one with the bbs rims.

First of all, sick wheels. BBS FTW.

I voted impul.. Impul is the same style weather poly or fiber glass so I just chose the top one.. Nismo sides actually look very nice but dont have as much character if you will.

i have nismo front and impul sides.. Don't buy impul from Arch.. PM if you want to know why.

The polyurethane Impul sides from Arch will be raised a tad for more clearance, so they won't be exactly the same.

officerdbag- thanks for the compliment on the rims, i havnt seen them on many g35s if any

Im always wary about Fiberglass, thats why im considering the Poly. Has anybody cracked sideskirts before?

Calvin, is that a good thing, being raised more?

It's subjective. But in terms of having more clearance, yes.

Yeh, I scrape my Impul replicas (fiberglass) every day. Knock on wood. But if you're dropped like any of the hella flush guys, lol, poly would be nice.

Who has them in Poly? Ive only used Arch for my front, and I get somewhat of a discount if I buy sides from them, but they only list Fiberglass on their site.

Im on the Eibach Springs, sportline i believe, but was going to buy coilovers in a few months after the kit is on. I bottom out all the time, Im not sure if my sideskirts scrape though.

No one currently offers the Impul sides in poly yet, but Arch is planning to release them.

^I'm looking for you now. I seen them on here a while back. If your car is a dd it would be much safer to be rolling with poly side.

Arch says they should have their impul poly in on monday.

My car is my daily driver, roughly 150miles per day 4days a week

Im having my front painted on March 12th and I could have my sides done soon after, Arch only takes 3 or 4 days for shipping which is good, just dont know if poly is worth the extra 125 bucks...and the extra wait

My stock skirts are hacked. I cant imagine the lower AM skirts. I would make sense to make them in poly IMO
