I ordered a nismo front lip for my 08 magnetic black coupe. It comes un painted in the black poly material. My question is what should I do
1. Leave it un painted
2. Gloss black
3. Wrap it In carbon fiber di noc
4. Other
I really love the look of carbon fiber I have a few carbon fiber accents and if I go the di noc route I'm gonna do some interior parts and maybe even the outside door handles.

 

Umm is it a lip or Nismo front bumper?

 

It's the bottom diffuser for the nismo front bumper right? I say wrap in CF

 

Pics would we helpful, both of your car and the lip

 

Here is the lip he is talking about I think.

It's the Nismo Kouki lip. I believe it is discontinued now and hard to get.
Here it is painted on my car.

 

I say paint it the same color as the car. Don't wrap it in fake carbon fiber crap, and don't have it painted any other color black besides magnetic black. And for the love of God don't leave it unpainted.

Here is a link to an old thread about the lip.

^Love that lip and paint it the same color as the car.

 

nothing wrong with dinoc but a lip that nice needs to be painted

 

thats the lip i got had to jump on it only paid drumroll please 94.99 and that includes shipping i would eventully paint it but the stock front bumper is already so ****ed up with chips and bugs that seem to never come off i would rather wrap it in carbon di noc untill i have the funds to repaint everything maybe mold it on

 

Please don't. It only cost me like 175 to have mine painted and installed by a professional body shop.

 

I still want to see pics of it.

+1 on the paint over wrap, the wrap is going to look weird.

 

Damn that lip is nice. Definitely paint it.

Wrapping in CF = poser

Unpainted = cheap

 

Damn how did you get that lip soo cheap? ive been searching like hell but cant find one anywhere..

 

It's because I'm a Baller

 

Good price for authentic Nismo lip. It's a rare piece right now since it has been discontinued. I was told that I got the last 1 of 2 in the States last year.

And yes to getting them painted.

 

I guess I got the last one

 

I hear wrapping things in CF make it lighter.


Just get it painted.

 

Really I would say do whatever you want, no need to make a thread its your car.

I personally would say paint it

 

just got it i will upload a pic later i need some help anyone have instructions on how to install this it came with some screws 4 brackets and some rivits please help me with some pix
