Default Nismo V1 on a 2006 without cutting?

hey guys I have a 2006 Z and am going to be putting on a v1 replica front bumper.

I was curious if there's anyway to get it to fit without any cutting or trimming my plastic fenderwell liners because I would want to be able to put an 06 bumper back on and have it sit flush.... Plus I just hate the idea of cutting any stock stuff...

Anyone?


thanks!

Generally speaking, the replica BUMPER replacements won't need any modification (other than prep etc) for the fender linings to line up. Unless it's a real shotty replica, than it should line up.

If you are talking about a lip, the nismo lip will not fit your 06 bumper.

Also, i'm assuming you are talking about the aerosync front bumper correct? If it's aerosync, just paint it, and install. No cutting necessary

thanks! Anyone with personal experience?

I don't know which replica it is, my friend bought it from someone, but he is in the process of finding out. I was just worried because generally a V1 bumper was made for the 03-05 Z's and those bumpers needed cutting to fit on an 06.

You cannot use 06+ reflectors on the V1.
