Best JDM Nismo sideskirt replicas?
Looking for JDM Nismo sides. I assume the real deal is $$$ and hard to come by and wondering who makes the best replicas (fiberglass or urethane)? So far I've just found the VIS ones; anyone know about their quality and fitment? Best place to buy?

If not VIS, then, who else does replica JDM sideskirts? I don't think I could afford authentic ones (if they are even obtainable).

I bought the v1 sides and rear from him and then decided to go in another direction, so sold them to someone here locally. Does he do Nismo sides? Guess I should e-mail him. Just dunno if he'd be able to tell me if the ones he can get are US or JDM replicas...
So was any extra work required on your replica sides to get good fitment or were you just able to paint and install?

Bump. I like the JDM sides better myself as well (at least on PPW), and curious as to who makes the best ones out there. I guess I'd be interested in the rear pieces as well.

I agree...the JDM sideskirts are much nicer. I purchased a replica from some shop a while back, it doesnt fit...one side is too short. I'm interested in a fitting pair.

I broke down and got the USDM Nismo sides. Much cheaper, urethane construction and no worries of fitment issues with replicas. Got a great price from Performance Nissan, though I had to wait a month for them due to backorder. Just took them in for paint yesterday. I would have preferred the JDM sides, but in the end, the difference in looks is minor and I have greater peace of mind knowing they are OEM urethane parts.
