Default ½ Nismo lip?

I saw this Z on ebay, and I can't tell if I love it or hate the front lip. Looks like he took a Nismo front lip and cut out the middle part. But his car is an 04, with an 06+ front bumper and 07 hood...

Look at how the bumper reflectors are scalloped. It's towards the back like the 03 bumper and not towards the front like the newer, yet the grille and center section are from the 06+ bumper. Looks like a Nismo bumper with a newer center section molded in.

^^ nah, the whole thing is an 06+ bumper. you can tell by looking at how the lines around the headlight extend.

I think it looks pretty good on the Redline, won't look good on my PPW for sure. It would look even better if it had the 06+ headlights instead of the 03-05

Some times I look at it and think it would look good on my carbon silver, but sometimes...not so much.

Looks like the Camaro RS front clips that come on the 98-02 models.

It appears to be an 03 bumper, but an 06 lip and nismo lip kit.

I think the front bumper is tastefully done. The lines are clean and it's definately very unique. I just wish the person didn't paint part of the hood black.
