Does anyone know what the differences between Nismo V2 body kit authentic and replica?

I mean look wise in detail...also material...

Thanks. If this was posted before...Sorry...

 

Depends what brand replica you want.

 

how many replica brands are there? sorry I'm not familiar with the replica brands...

 

Fitment is probably the biggest concern in difference. I believe the Nismo bumper is made from FRP which replicas make as well.

 

which replica brand would have the closest fitment? I'm thinking of getting the Nismo V2 front and sides....

 

Shine

 

i have the shine one.. go with the shine

 

would like to get one from them as well, but they dont reply pms

 

Try M1 Autosport, they make a killer v2 replica...

Authentic

1. Cost Money.
2. Better Fitment
3. Internet Props

Replica

1. Cheap.
2. Bad Fitment (Depending)
3. Haters

 

My Shine V2 front fit like OEM.

 

For the guys that have the Shine piece, what is your impression of the material quality? Any noticeable thin spots, depressions, waviness, spider web cracks, etc.? It's pretty tempting to buy from them based on their video showing the guys twisting that bumper half way around without it cracking.

 

There is also a price difference and availability of the authentic kit that needs to be considered

 

M1 autosports is a pretty good fitment here is my bumper that I got from them..

 

The Shine front fits pretty good its just a little bit more pricey.

 

Do you have a link for their websites?

 

Bottom line is about $800 difference

 

I organized a successful Shine bodykit group buy in Korea and I myself have a Shine Amuse kit on right now. General review of the GB participating members was that the fitment is very good, but many of them complained about their bodykits being too thin... As time went by their bodykits started to sag down..

 

my authentic v2 is easily 5 years old. I am the second owner. It is flawless and
has been resprayed quite a few times. keep an eye on ebay. I bought mine for
$300.00 w canards. the repros all have some issues. make sure your installer is
comfortable with fitting and prepping for paint, and you should be fine regardless
of your choice (auth, m1 or shine)...
