hi guys im a noob here i dont know if this question have been ask before. anyway im bout to buy a nismo v.2 kit. i see that they have some fake nismo v2 kit in here and there both made on a fiberglass if im right anway i went on nissanparts.com and mynismo.com and there selling it for atleast $900 for the nismo front bumper but when i was browsing around here in the forum i see someone is selling it for $400 somthing can you guys tell me whats the difference and is it worth it to get the $800 v2 kit or just get the fake one?

 

get the replica...go to classifieds and u can find some vendors selling it for around 400 or so

 

Shine makes a hybrid frp front bumper that bends and doesn't crack as easy as the normal fiberglass. It's less expensive than the authentic but imo the quality is the same. Fitment is perfect, also.

Punkster also sells some great v2 bumpers. Check the vendor for sale section.

 

Hi...
Here is the link for the Shine Auto Nismo V2 Bumper: https://my350z.com/forum/body-exterior/329440-shine-s-v2-aero-thread-everything-you-need-to-know-about-our-v2-products-here.html

I also purchased a Shine Auto Kit for my RX7...and it was a verrrrry good fitment all around. I have it to paint it but it seems as if it do hit a curb, it will not crack like fiberglass.

So I would be sticking to Shine Auto for my Nismo V2 bumper.

 

so i should just go with the with the fake one then. i mean you cant really tell the difference between the genuine nismo bumper and the one that they make here? because i know in fact that if you buy a jdm parts and jdm style you could tell the other one is fake. i still need to decide idunno yet. but thanks for the reply

 

Could one get the Nismo "badge" with the knock-off, or is that something only available on the authentic piece?

 

as far as I know the nismo badge only comes with authentic...Shine is a very good replica...i would either go big baller and get the legit or the shine replica...everything else i would avoid since regular frp cracks easy.

 

You cant go wrong with Shines fitment and quality. Im actually about to order my second body kit from Shine for another Z.

 

theres a thread about the v2 and the nismo badge i couldnt find it but, theres a site that sells it

 

^ let me know if you find it...i want =)

also looking for the central20 decal

 

Thanks for the info, I was also looking to get a V2 kit.
