As for the Nismo kit, unless your dealership had the V1 Nismo kti laying around, it is no longer available. Most dealerships did not stock the JDM V1 which is the full front bumper like the one in the EBAY knock off you posted.

Check post #4 from this thread and that comes from a reputable vendor.

If you're serious about the kit though, check w/ Andy at Performance Nissan.
The Kit has to be ordered its not in Stock.. The Sales Manager quoted me the price when i dropped off my car today.

The real one you'll find at US dealerships is urethane (USDM, not JDM which is fiberglass).

Its still readily available.

Unless you find a shop in Japan that has a genuine kit laying around, no, there is no way to order it
This is a direct quote from Z1, so I was just going by that.

The USDM one is just a lip, the picture from the EBAY OP posted was for a V1full bumper.

That is correct..didn't say which he wanted though. The auction isn't selling USDM or JDM, its a cheap replica.

USDM = urethane, front lip

JDM = fiberglass, front bumper

Auction = garbage

Contact X350ZX. I have heard that his Nismo kits fit exceptionally well.
