Haven't seen your car but....!

If you have coilovers just adjust the height of your car. I'm lowered 1 inch,
with my Kuruma Z bumper any lower and I'd leave it on my driveway. My wife
and I have been to Gig Harbor, nice quiet town. My wife dropped $2K on a
ring in one of your jewelery stores....nice huh?

INGS lip kit looks great. Just get the rear lip molded though. It doesn't look good otherwise.

I think it'll be waaaaaaaay too low dude. You're already slammed! I dropped my G37 & I scrape on speed bumps occasionally, I don't know how you drive that low!

x2 you goin to the golden gardens meet? when you get that kit you should sell/trade+cash for your front bumper. mine is all tore up and i don't wanna pay to have it refinished. would rather grab another stock front that's my color until i'm ready to get an aftermarket front.

My advice is to get a polyurethane front bumper. Not many options, but worth it imo. I think you can find the Nismo in poly.

i forget his name, but the guy who makes all the replica kits on here (klumzee?) has the nismo bumpers in glass, glass w/ CF ducts, or poly. let me know when you go to get whatever painted, i might want to get my bumper resprayed since we have the same color. might end up being a little cheaper for both of us.
