There is no such thing as a Nismo lip for the G35 coupe. The 350z has a lip. The Nismo bumper is a complete, I repeat a complete front bumper replacement. The same goes for the Type-N. The reason you see it painted black like that is to show you what is different between the Nismo bumper and the stock bumper. It is just a "design line" to give the illusion of a lip.

Sorry, but the pictured bumper is not up for sale. Unless you want to pay me $1400 for it. It's been fully prepped and reinforced by a body shop. Painted CB, with zero miles on it. Offer stands for one week until I can slap a clear bra on it.

that piece can be add to a 350z with the nismo
" lip or bumper i am not sure on the Z "

I know.. I just posted it as a referance picture to see... I found the larger picture afterward. This is what I think it is. Its the same as Buddy Club. Buddy Club has a 2 piece front bumper. The bumper, and the lower lip. Almost all replicas have made it into a one piece kit with the lip attatched. NISMO has a two piece front bumper. Its a bumper with a lip, and the face ducts my possibly be seperate pieces too

Authentic (multi piece bumper?)


Replica (one peice bumper)

Wow... seriously. This thread makes me chuckle. I don't know how I can give a more hands on account regarding the authentic Nismo bumper considering the fact that I own one. It is a ONE PIECE... there is no spoon... err I mean there is no lip.

That picture of the NISMO ad, BTW, says "Add-on Spoiler". It is a rubber molding that you bolt to the bottom of a front bumper to add the *illusion* of a lower front bumper, and/or for hitting curbs, etc.
The add-on spoiler is 5,800 YEN, or about $55.

Just trying to help clarify.

puff is right, I have seen both bumper's in person. Type-N(replica) is once piece and so is the authentic NISMO. BOTH ARE BUMPERS BUT LOOK LIKE THEY ARE 2 PIECES!! Look at the topsecret front bumper, it looks like its a front bumper WITH a LIP but that PIECE IS PART OF THE BUMPER (ITS ALL 1 PIECE)!!

I can't believe that the nismo bumper is drilled for a LP. Looks the bodyshop is going to have a little more work than I anticipated.
