As above? Replica because I hear the real things are really pricey locally. I know of a pretty good deal from one of the vendors, $560 US shipped (not including whatever brokerage you get raped with).

 

go authentic or go home, ask 2th pwr, he'll give you some feedback on v2 replica.

 

if you find out let me know, id tap that as well, and if i do, stillen 06+ lip goes on sale

 

A huge +1
Just go authentic man.. you will end up paying the same amount in the end.

 

hey, 2th power, who was your replica from? I hear Shine's are pretty good....

 

^^ LOL, i believe his v2 replica is from shine auto

 

Yeah mine is from shine. You can buy mine if you want... But the price would have to be worth my trouble.

I will post some close up detailed pics 1 year after one year of very light garage kept, weekend driven use. You can get an idea of fit, quality, and durabilty.

 

why not get a nismo v3? urtane ftw

it was like 480usd last time i saw it (w/o diffuser)

if someone does a group buy on that i can have i can get 3 ppl in for it. just shipping is 200 a piece from thenismoshop

 

the V3 bumper doesn't fit 03-05 properly without fender liners. The V2 does, I believe. Is the story that the JDM Nismo Z used the V2 style and the USDM used the V3 style?

 

I like the v2 over v3...

 

 

+2

Nismo V3 is too rice for my taste. V2 is the way to go.

Again, I agree that one should go authentic or go home.

Just like how I tell my wife to buy 1 authentic LV rather than 10 replicas.

 

urtane > fiberglass

the v2 does look nice but its only fiberglass (one of my top picks but anything nismo i'm a sucker for). if someone would make a urtane version then v2>v3 imo. from my experience having a s14 and fiberglass kit i ended up buying 3 front bumpers. u hear that one scarp at the front then its gg. i ended up duct taping the whole thing and was way more duable rather then buying another one lol. i would rather go with something durable

 

i have an authentic v2 for sale, just feelers, if you're interested... pm me xDD

i agree on v2 > v3 but there's too much around and it starts to look out of date and plan imo..

but afterall, as long as you like it.. and trust me.. the authentic v2 bumper fits perfectly...

 

i've scraped my v2 a few times and it hasn't cracked yet. mind you, i almost cried when i saw the nasty paint scuffs, but the bumper was pretty resilient.

 

Depends how low you are, I prefer eurothane, but if you're careful then fibreglass is fine for bumpers/skirts etc.

V2 <3
