Nismo v2 with or with out canards?
So what do you guys think? Should I put the canards on or leave it as . I'm getting the bumper repainted.

I like canards since your mouth is painted black, canards will add a more aggressive black accent to it.
IMO - you need side and rear skirts to go with it. Most hellaflush cars can pull this off with just the front bumper b/c how low they sit and how wide their wheels are. Also the two lines next to the emblem doesn't go well with the HR hood... it's suited better for DE.

It looks pretty good with them painted the same color as the car. Either way looks pretty good.

Youll definitely need new wheels if you want canards. I think it looks better without though.

I say with:
I was going to do it without but once they were on, I liked it a lot better. Oh, I also shaved the groves on the top of the bumper as well to go with the 07/08 hood.

Can't remember which thread I saw it in but there were photos of a red Z with canards that looked like they had red thread though them. I thought they looked terrific.

Without a splitter up front , it really doesn't matter enough. Also canards are for low speed cornering, where a wing or diffuser does nothing.
Next track event "Autoclub speedway" a pair or both set of canards are coming off. To much high speed drag.

With means you wanna look fast, better be somewhat...

What splitter are you running with your V2? It looks great, very aggressive but maybe to much for the street
