Custom Nismo front

Recently I had a change of heart for the Nismo front.
I always thought that it was a really clean bumper but the grooves around the vents on it didn’t flow for me with the rest of the smooth lines on the car. So I did some custom work on the bumper and smoothed everything out.

Big thanks to alfhasg35 for letting me borrow his front bumper and R&J Shop for taking care of me. I probably should take some pics when the sun is not beaming down so hard but these will have to do for now.

Wheels and a drop are in the works!

Looks good, but now it looks like a lower stock bumper.

Not trying to hate, but Fail (sorry just my personal .02)

I know what you mean by the smooth lines of the car, but the car has lines and plenty of them. Now instead of incorporating and matching, you made the front bumper look like it's had plastic surgery gone wrong.

Original is much better - but I - like the others can appreciate your .02 and if you love it - that's all that matters at the end of the day.

Thanks Guys!
