Depends there are so many variables if it's used parts check your local salvage probably be your best bang for your buck, oem parts check with your local Nissan dealership and you can also google a few online, off the top of my head check with thezstore.com and possibly conceptzperformance.com a few just to get you started it's hard to find much Love here if it seems like your not taking the time to do your own research,can't expect the teacher to give you all the answers to the test you must study grasshopper!!

Even if you find a good price online, shipping costs for the part may outweigh the benefit of buying locally. But, if you can find a dealer with a low price online, then you can see if your local dealer will price match it. Usually, there is no extra shipping charge through the dealer.
I did this for a front bumper cover on our Volvo V70R - and, pretty cool, actually - Volvo sells their bumper covers factory-color-matched, already. I wish more OEMs offered that option. |

Hopefully it's not "duraflex" or fiberglass unless you want to do about 10 hours of body work on it before installing to save $150

Urethane will conform to fit, the caveat with aftermarket urethane kits is if you bump it slightly, bottom out, scrape, etc it deforms, depending on how detailed you are, it does become noticeable after a while. It still beats frp or fiberglass cracking.

How was the install? Also what about the quality? In the photo looks like the lip is Curled a bit I'm guessing this is the rep for the Nismo V3 hope to see a post once it's painted.

Installing it was easy
just needed some new screws that was about it and yeah I'll keep posting pictures but before I paint it ima get a carbon fiber hood and then paint the whole car it's my project 😆 |
