All look not too bad, but not a fan of the single exhaust with a LARGE open rear end b/c of the tuck.

Its free - and I dont think it looks good with factory exhaust (just my opinion though).. I have a single exhaust so that is the ONLY reason I did mine..

Mostly for the single exhaust guys, because the right exhaust outlet looks out of place and kinda stupid, so the bumper tuck hides both the outlets and makes a cleaner look.

OK, this mod looks great and when I receive my new exhaust I'm probably going to do this.

However, my big concern is this situation:

If/when I or another 350z owner decides to trade in his/her beloved 350z, and if one used zip-ties or self-tapping screws to mount the fender; would it be possible to un-do the mounted fender and have it return to a stock looking bumper, or would it have a nasty crease in it? What is the best and most practical solution to this predicament?

Sorry ahead of time if this has already been covered, but I wasn't able to locate an answer.

If you remove the self tapping screws you are going to have visible holes for the whole world to see. I doubt you would have to woRry about a crease or paint issues, now multiple holes that might be a issue. Just an opinion

As long as there isn't a crease, I could probably get away with the holes. I could manage to get those covered up somehow.
