Default lowering with vertex kit?

hey im wondering if lowering with the full vertex kit (bumpers not lip) is gonna be a biatch? All the pics i have seen seem to be pretty low...but im not sure.


Can anyone with the vertex kit confirm?

I have the origin front and it is actually a lot higher than I thought. IIrc, my stock bumper w/ the nismo lip had like 4" of clearance from the ground on the middle of the bumper and 3 something inches on the side...something like that. Anyway, the origin, which is almost exactly like the vertex, is about 5 1/4" clearance from the ground (middle of bumper,) and like 4 3/4" from the sides. From a profile shot the bumper almost lines right up w/ the stock side skirts (w/out the mudguards!) This all being on stock suspension of course. -- Moral of the story: I say lower that biatch. You shouldn't have any more problems scraping than really staying stock, granted you drive semi cautiously up steep hills.

is the real vertex bumper lower than the origin front?

If the origin front is like the stock....would the vertex side skirt sit lower that the origin front bumper?

also, where did u get your origin front and do you have any pics?
