I know alot of people don't like this kit and at first I did not like the kit but after awhile, it grew on me. Don't get me wrong, the sides and rear is awful but I do love the front bumper.

This is not my car, not a big fan of the eyelids

I did a crappy photoshop of different color schemes for the front bumper, what do you think?

I want a more aggressive front.

to each their own but I agree with others, that bumper is horrid (my opinion), good looking wheels though (show more pix). Just research what others have done with bumpers, you can mod your existing Nismo to look more aggressive yet classy.

Don't listen to these guys Nyteowl they are a bunch of Nismo sheep!

I say go for that uniquely aggressive kit and I'll begrudgingly take that boring Nismo kit off your hands.
