Default Nismo V2 for 08 Z?

Im trying to find a nismo v2 rep without these guys:

All the nismo v2 reps have those divets. I know they exist without them but I want a halfway decent rep and not some vis crap. If anybody knows the user that owns this car/ what bumper this is that would be cool.

I think all the Replicas come with those lines. If you see them without its because they had them filled.

As other people have said, you will need them filled. Authentic and replicas all have those lines.

kinda funny, but VIS is one of the better replicas, many say it fits better than the a real Nismo fiberglass bumper.

I assumed that since it's vis the fitment would be off. My first choice would be the Shine one.

I do not have personal experience, but I've heard Shine was higher on the food chain.

I'd be worried that if the bumper took a slight tap the filler would crack. That's what's been keeping me from getting a V2 for my '08. My OEM bumper has taken a few (witnessed) very minor taps in the parking garage at work, and I'm happy there has been no permanent damage. Too bad so many SUV drivers are inconsiderate @ssholes.

I have/had both. I have a Shine now and it fits great. I did a trade a while back and ended up with a VIS so I put it on, the fit was actually very good. I would say they were equal in that respect.

You will have to get the lines filled. The body shop charged me $50 to get the canard holes filled. VIS is the best/cheapest company out there for a replica v2. Here's mine, VIS v2 fiberglass. No body work done for fitment

Just get lines filled in, I had my badge filled in and it's holding up good.
Also, +1 for VIS's fitment.
They're spot on

I feel I would want poly over fiberglass.
