Default Best Fitting Nismo Rep Skirts?

Can someone recommend me a decent pair or nismo replica side skirts that don't have god awful fitment? I've only heard bad things about most reps to the point where the fitment was so terrible that they couldn't use/fix them. I did look at the MSA reps from the Z store, which I personally think looks big, dumb, and bubbly compared to the actual nismo style, so I'm not interested in those. I'd hate to buy authentic if there's a decent rep somewhere out there.

When it comes to the nismo sides, the JDM version is more subtle while the USDM version is more pronounced, just incase you do end up buying authentic. That said, I'd recommend anything from shine auto project since their fitment is spot on and they make quality pieces. At the end of the day, remember you usually get what you pay for.

Last sentence is very true. I've been looking at shine and might pull the trigger on them considering the good things I hear about their products.

Personally I have the shine nismo v2 replica front w/ cf lip. Fitment is perfect. Before I got this I had bought the Extreme Dimensions nismo v2 replica kit. There's a clear difference between the two from flexibility, and material having owned the two I can definitely say Shine is the clear choice.

Got to give another big head nod on Shine.Their stuff fits spot on.All my parts from Shine
have been CF.The finish is great and lasting.For what its worth since you have brought up whats the best,from my experience anything from AIT is pretty BAD.Are you dead set on Nismo side skirts?
If not,Shine makes a skirt that does not have the pronounced curves like the Nismo.I have these in CF.
They are more subtle and give a nice side trim look and lower the look of the car.Install is a snap using the OEM skirt bolts.

+3 on shine auto. I have the nismo sides and mine were 100% spot on. Had a few pieces from vis that fit pretty good but definitely stay away from ED.
