I'm planning on installing the Nismo V2 front bumper on my 35th anniversary super black Z. I've seen many PPW, DB, and Redline V2s with black grilles and canards, but has anybody tried anything with the SB color? Let me know! pics!

 

you can paint the center grill the body color and paint the bottom lip graphite silver.

 

I think you should paint the lip,center, and canards flat black and the rest SB.

 

good luck, i tried thinking of combos with black but i could only think of getting the CF lip and the CF canard combo. However i do hope you find a combo that works!

 

Which canards are you going to install?

 

The regular FRP canards if im going to paint them.. If i go with carbon fiber i would get the carbon fiber lip as well. im leaning towards that option, but thought it might be pretty interesting to do the grill, lip and canards in red, kind of like an inverse of the "ghost Z" you see on here all the time.

 

Im guessing its going to look dumb if you do any other color combos with black instead of black.

 

might be hard to pull off but if works well then "props" to you. I think it will depend on the shade of red, and if the whole car (meaning the side skirts and id suppose the rear) flows like ghosts with his nismo side skirts 1/2 black and his nismo rear black. Good luck, maybe you can top it off with some Volks Time Attacks.

 

go all black...like I did. other color combo would look horrid.

 

I think so too. There isn't too much you can do with a black bumper besides paint the whole thing black

 

i think the only color you could use would be a gunmetal, or graphite color.
