Default Questions about the Nismo V2 Front bumper

Well I contacted Ken from shine and sure enough great customer service and I am ordering the bumper today. I have a white z on bronze wheels. What is killing me is that when i get it i know im gonna have the inside where the grill goes black for sure, but I dont know whether to paint the lip black or white like the car. Any advice or pics wpuld be great. Second question, what would be a good mesh to put on the grill of the bumper?

I painted the grill section black along with the lip, I also ordered the mesh from customcargrill.com. I think thats the name.

Niceee.

Why are you guys not putting on the canards?
I think I will only paint the inside black and leave the rest body color.

I didn't put the canards on mine as it was just a bit much for my taste.

I'm not a fan of the cannards, I think the rest of the kit needs to be very aggressive to pull them off!

how far off the ground does the lowest part of the V2 bumper sit off the ground?? In Australia here there are regulations for ride height, so not sure if I can get this bumper or not..
