Default What nismo v1 lip worth

I have 03-05 nismo front lip authentic.
Pared with oem front bumper with titek CF air duct what could I expect ... Wanting to change to v2

Bumper is in great contrition minor chips here and there but would probs get painted by new owner anyways. Call it 8/10. Right now is super black.

I mean the bumper kit. Not the whole car. Cause for the v3 for example a lot of places really do just sell the bumper itself and not all the other parts you need for a proper fit.
Might be why it was so cheap

But it won't fit/work.. so is there any point in buying "part" of it?

Of course v3 will fit. Lol you need to see it in person looks like to undestand. I think you think the v3 bumper is just a one piece u bolt on. Its not

I should add that the V2 I want doesn't have to be authentic. As long as the replica company has good reviews on fitment then it's all good.

Ya saw that before. Being authentic he would want and deserve more then what I would be willing... Plus with middle cut out leaves no place for me to put my plate without custom fabricating something....

And would like to have a little something in the middle to help protect my intercooler from stones and what not.

I do appreciate the find though, thanks!

If you do go with that one or another i got a nissan plate holder for the v3, not sure if the v2 is as pointy up front as the v3, but i am sure it can fit. Thats if you want it up front in the middle like nissan designed the bracket to sit. I got my now behind the grill opening to the side.

There's nothing "custom" about my bracket.
Just 2 L shaped flat pieces of metal.

here is the only pic i can find in photobucket with front plate off
