I have the Vizage Type A, good quality for FRP but fragile hence FRP! lol but i think he design and look is much nicer than the INGS, INGS is nice and they come in urethane which is a nice + but if you don't have a FMIC the mesh can look exceeded.

INGs doesn't come in urethane if its authentic it only comes in a a hybrid fibergalss material wich still don't flex like urethane. The fitment is really good im in the process of installing mine now will post some pics wen im done.

Authentic INGs is overrated IMO.
The only reason i would choose the INGS over the JP is for he Urethane front bumper, i'm skiddish about my FRP JP kit. but i think it looks much nicer, if you havea FMIC, then perfect, the INGS will look nice, but without it it's too much mesh, looks tacky.

I had the Vizage... it I loved it. But now there must be like 7 - 10 cars around here with the same front bumper. It looks awesome, but just not so unique anymore. OH, fwiw, I busted mine like every 6 months and had to have it repaired and repainted. Fiberglass sucks that way.. ;-/

My vote is for the authentic ING's N-Spec Hybrid material. I've curb checked it a couple times and scraped on low entrances several times and only paint has chiped. It's pretty durable if you ask me. However, if you don't have a FMIC it's a bit harder to pull off.





If you decide on Ings get the authentic through Andy@performance.

No offense guys, but I know there are loads of pics on here of mine, Kelly's, Toby's and Robbie's cars. These are just a few of the Mid-A guys sporting this front bumper. You could get a good idea of various colors by looking in the Mid-A section, where there is Pic thread.

Mine was even in the last Issue of Nissan Sport with Alex's.

Here is my Cardomain page. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2070032 Check out the pics in the first and second pages. Also here is my Myspace page which has some pics from various events. http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm...ndid=109268625 Also, here is a video Sharif from Forged Performance shot at the Salt Flats on the Rally. http://www.forgedperformance.com/med...ltflatsrun.wmv I do not have many front shots of the car, so look at 0:45, 1:30 and 2:30.

I have since changed the bodykit, but that was basically because during the '07 AKA Rally I smashed a huge hole in the front and rear bumper (don't ask).
