Where does it screw in? I wanted the ASM lips but was told it wouldn't work because of my roll.

Not going to lie.
I would probably sell them for new ones.
That gap would just annoy me no matter which way I lined it up.

Inner Fender Lip. Cars with rolled lips have still been able to install these with success. A good body guy can pretty much do anything.

^That's a nice looking set up... I think the fact that my 1st Moulding is a tad lower than the Nismo rear add on's, it wont sit flush and I'll have a gap.

if only you could mold it together with the mudguard. besides that issue it's not that bad.

G35 guards look promising.

Looks like you has winner. Hey can you get me a measurement from the rear bumper line to where the oem guards go? I would like these as well but I have the TS rear guears.

the money you saved on these are going to come right back on the mods you do to make it look right.
personally the gap would annoy me too much. the paint match isn't all that fantastic either.

Doubtful. I will still be in the green after all is said and done. All in all it's a mod that no one else will notice except for me...like most of my mods.

G35 guards were almost perfect. Just need to trim a few millimeters off the flare and get the guards painted and I'll be in business. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll update the thread when all is said and done.
