So I have an 07 with a cut up front end from the previous owner that I threw a lip on. The front drivers side headlight has a crack in the bumper somehow now and my options are a stock replacement and keep the lip or replace it with a nismo V3. Looks like the price difference is about 250. Unless anyone knows of good replicas, I've been looking. I don't like the replica missing the front blinkers. I want a stock looking nismo V3 replica if anything.
if you plan on doing side skirts and a rear bumper/add on.. then get the v3. if you plan on leaving the sides and rear stock, then get an oem bumper, but toss the ebay lip.

How weird do you think it would look without the rear and side skirts?
i personally don't like it too much. but there are some guys on here running it. I think NA&CH has the v3 front with stock sides/rear. try to find him and ask for pics. or maybe he'll chime in
There are no blinkers in the bumper itself unless you wire some in with leds where the reflectors are.
Since you are thinking of not doing the sides and rear, I would say go for the stock 06+ or Aerosync bumper.
If you do plan to do the sides or rear later down the road then go V3
In any event, get rid of that front lip.
I agree with Chris... If the car is lowered he can pull it off. You may consider painting the whole bumper one tone and only painting the grille portion black.
