Selling the coils would offset the cost but the thought of having some good dampeners with bags would be good too. I'm curios as to how much fab work is needed to properly mate the bags with the coils.


I definitely want e level with my setup if I end up going this route. My buddy just ordered his. He's more excited about the iPhone app the comes with it than anything else.

 

first piece to begin the conversion to allow for nismo lip

 

^Nice! Where did you pickup the 03-04 bumper from? Are you going to buy the mudguards from the dealership?

 

some guy on craigslist...$60 a crack on the back, but nothing that can't be fixed...the mudguards can't be retained from my current bumper? if not i know ionic has them along with the lip

 

I would recommend getting the mudguards, everything will line up properly and won't require modification.

 

then that's what i'll do, should i just get them along with the lip from ionic or is there another place you recommend? and also how did you handle the trunk release button?

 

Ohhh aren't you special.

Luv ya, mean it.......

 

thats right tim i am special. i have a built longblock comming in tomorrow and turning up the boost. oh and goin 6mt. luv ya. no homo

 

Getting them from Ionic is a great option since it probably lines up with their lip perfectly. If you want OEM ones hit up Tony at Riverside Infiniti or Phil at Grubbs Infiniti.

For the trunk release button you can either have the body shop cut a hole in the bumper or go without it. I didn't cut the hole in mine because it looks cleaner without it and I never use the trunk release button.

 

I plan on staying without the trunk release,definitely cleaner, but is it a removable button, or does just putting the new bumper over it solve the situation? I'm wondering if the mudguards ionic sells are actual oem or ones he has made.

 

Great question about the trunk release. I'm pretty sure it can just rest behind the bumper so that if you ever switch back to an 05-06 you could still use it. I don't recall the body shop removing the button mechanism from the car.

 

The button bolts to the back of the 05 bumper so you can actually just unplug it. Marcus you should actually work on your car every once and awhile. You may learn something. lol j/k

 

You ever thought of getting a bodyshop to customize a hole for the trunk release button? Or has it been done at all?

 

Yes its been done. heyitzalex was the first to do it that I was aware of and he had the hole cutout.
