Honestly Kris's prices are fvcking ridiculous, $80 more than eric was selling his fronts for, and like over $100 more for the sides skirts, fvcking ridiculous! M1's nismo's fit great, at least the ones i've seen!

Does M1 offer the "V2" version of the Nismo in poly (v2 meaning tow-hook cover delete and attachable undertray)?

Also, Kris doesn't offer the V2 like Eric did, right?

Sucks that you are having fitment issues Jon. I would demand a refund if you are not happy with it!

Already tried for just only partial refund, no work. Thanks for looking out, but I really dont wish to put out more money than I've already did.

A&A Autoworks in Van Nuys. They did the entire bodywork for Mizter_G's (Alvin) orange coupe.

^Your kit is fiberglass right? That thing came out good!

The shop I'm going through I'm sure they know what they're doing since they work on bodykits and showcars all day long for the last 13 years. The thing is there's only so much you can do with a poly bumper. FG bumpers you can keep reworking it until it fits, just like how they got my fg impul sides to finally fit good.

yeah, while poly is hard to work with, erics wasn't known to be that bad... it's a shame this didnt work out for you. I'd try to get the refund as well.

seriously at that price it has better be OEM fitment, because it's unpainted and so expensive.......any additional bodywork just to make it work is RIDICULOUS. If there was gonna be issues, might as well buy a $200 bumper and spend th difference in bodywork makign it fit -__________________-
