I don't know? They were like $230 plus importing fees and shipping?




I just like them because I'm attracted to colourful shiney objects.

I shoulda taken pics. Now me too lazy. I will get some later. The kit looks good. The material is well finished. It's thick, and somewhat flexible. Seems strong. I am concerned about the rear add on's fitment, but the sides and front should be very good.

What to do about those rear ad ons? hmmm

If you see a car with Quebec plates, stay far far away.

The craziest dude you see on the streets, is always a Quebecer.

Stop signs must be optional in Quebec. Speed Limits must be meant to be doubled. Merging and changing lanes are rights to be taken violently, not privileges.

+1, quebecors seem to have a sense of entitlement or something both on the road and on land, and that the rest of canada has to bend their lives and rules around them

I saw the aftermath on my desk top, but alas, I was too late......


But! I had an idea at the gym....
You know how the "authentic" nismo V2 has a little badge that goes here.


I don't want to try and pass my replica off as authentic. But I would like to put something there. So instead of getting a NISMO badge and putting it there I was thinking wouldn't it be cool if I designed a custom logo, and put it there. I could get a local plaque and engraving shop to put a design on a silver plaque of the proper size, and it could be mounted in place.
This is what I came up with so far? Is it too riced out? I figure it's such a small detail, only friends, or other car enthusiasts will notice.
Rough draft. Maybe with silver border.


And how am I going to put my plate on and have it look clean? And! Can they re use my NISSAN Hamburger from my OEM bumper?

haha, well, first off, i doubt all those cloud effects would show up in the plaque. It would be a neat idea, provided that you keep the design simple.

second of all, i believe the OEM buger does fit on the shine bumper, but not 100% sure...i would double check with the Shine guys...they probably know.

last, you can either use the tow hook to mount a bracket for the plate, or find a nismo plate bracket....



it doesn't look TOO bad...though for sure it would look better without it haha. Both methods wouldn't drill into the front of the bumper, so you're good on that.

edit: god...Gold CE28's are SOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOT

edit 2: maybe just something as simple as "2TH PWR" instead of NISMO?

I guess the simplest solution reallty is to have them both "shaved" if it's going to be a problem at all....

After seeing the fitment of the SHINE rear add ons, strongly considering buying authentic CHARGESPEED rear with DIFFUSER.
Gonna be about 2000 bucks.... decisions 2008.

Original plan called for NSPEC. It's too sharp and angular to flow with the Nismo side skirts IMO.
INGS +1 is an ok choice.
I originally would have settled for straight up JDM Nismo, but the fitment on these is not that great, and finding JDM Nismo parts is a PITA.
So faced with all these problems, the Chargespeed is growing on me.
The only other option would be vertex?
