Your favorite. I think you'll be happy with that. If that doesn't please you get what everyone else suggests, like maybe the vis sl2, that seems to be popular lately.

Whichever one you like the most that fits within the budget.

A question like this will either be ignored or you'll get flamed hard by some members.

There are too many choices out there. Check out all the pics in the galleries and spot one you like that works for you. One of most popular and one of the best looking is Nismo v2 imho. It will somewhat work with an otherwise stock body car. Good luck

Seriously, there are so many aftermarket bumpers out there for the 350Z, and you can't search and see which one you like???

I was thinking about either a Tommy Kaira or Nismo V2
Are there any good replica's out there?
And what material should I get? Is fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) pretty good?

Pic the one you want then evaluate the rest based on that decision... then use the search feature.
