Alright, as much as I want a Kuruma Z bumper, I think I am going to go with either a K2 or stock sport bumper. The Kuruma one is way too low to the ground; not good in NY. I'll just end up effing it up :/.

yea you should. Kuruma wouldnt be right if you didnt have a kit to go with it
your front would be lower then the rest of your car. plus seems like a waste of money on NY streets

imo i think you should just do the lip. they sell them for about 120 picked up in brooklyn. install and spray and be happy
no need to shelve out like 300 on a bumper and then another 300 for paint

I am looking to get a new bumper because the previous owner didn't know how to drive. It is all scratched up and eww. I was originally getting a stock bumper (non-sport) from Infiniti... but then I decided... if I was getting a new bumper, maybe I should get something different?

wouldnt it b cheaper to repaint the bumper? a body shop can prep and make the bumper look new again so you save money from getting a new bumper. but if u did want to purchase a new bumper, then yea get something different. but its up to you. thats what im going to do, my bumper is scraped and so from the previous owner too. im just going to have it repainted and installed with a front lip. will cost way less then a new bumper + paint.

I thought about getting it repainted too! I work for a dealership, and there's a body shop here. The dude says he will see if he can get me a good deal on a bumper first..

If he can't, he'll take mine off, fill in the deep scratches, sand it down or whatever, and then repaint.
