Yea the lower trim getting matched made the car look way better. I like the lip because the stock bumper sits higher than the skirts. The lip kinda brings it downs and adds to the forward rake of the car.

Haha thanks Adro. Yea I have been wanting to match the trim for quite a long time now. I felt like the lower trim made the car look cheap even though it is a luxury sport car. I finally came across an opportunity that I couldn't pass up to get everything painted and it all came out even better than I could have imagined.

Some non iphone pictures taken at the VQ Frenzy meet last weekend. Yes my rear bumper is dented and cracked. I am currently trying to find a rear bumper for a good price. As soon as i find one it will be getting painted. Also I took my axle back off the other day an i have to say the sound with the coupe midpipe and axle back delete is amazing. I am currently working on finding some burnt tips and a pipe welded on. Also in talks of getting a quad retro done.

Looks good. Look at the Rear bumper as an opportunity to switch to 05-06 rear, or just keep th 03-04 style and paint the lower mouldings, idk maybe even a lip with an 03-04. Either way looks good IMO.

I know man, I'm very restricted on my budget with my mods. Especially since I came from a 4th gen maxima where mods typically cost a fraction of what G mods cost.

I'm wanting to do an N-1 lip like yours, I'm just unsure about 05-06 fitment and all the ebay pics are misleading, it seems.

I may go for OEM replica from Ionic Dynamics(but it costs 2X what the N-1 does) and wrap it with white carbon fiber vinyl, hopefully that will be more "cost-effecftive" also ordered a gloss black vinyl roof overlay from Bluebatmobile on here.

Making moves Adro. I would go with the ionic lip of i was you. It flows much better with the 05-06 bumper than the N1. The white carbon fiber vinyl will definitely look really cool. A black roof will definitely set everything off too. Tons of people compliment me on my black roof all of the time.

Your car looks good man, definitely a nice choice in wheels. 1 question I have though, how is the lip mounted on the front part of the bumper? I know they mount on the side, but I'm unsure of the front....

thanks man. well i ended up just screwing it into the front of the bumper and on the sides. I already lost one lip because the sides tore because of stress so i didnt want to take any chances. I also have double sided 3m tape and i am going to be mounting it with the four brackets it came with too.
