Might look ok, the bumper and lip doesn't sit much lower than stock anyways.

I'm sure you are not tired of hearing it, but you have a very nice combo... V1 lip with Nismo side skirt..

well.... actually the nismo bumper is slightly lower than the VS 1 lip as I had the same setup as Bat's before. I would say the car will look more "complete" with the side skirts, but Bat is correct, it will look quite nice without them too!

cheers,

here is a pic of one of the forum member's car. this thing is beautiful. this guy's car is what inspired me to get the oem splash guards with the plan of getting the nismo bumper in the future.

I think the Nismo bumber without the sideskirts and rear pieces looks sooo good. I dont think the car needs the rest of the kit to look finished. I love the front, like the sideskirts but hate the rear, if they only made a rear I liked that didnt look so cheesy.

it does seem bent. someone asked him a while ago if it was a kit and he stated that it was the genuine nismo bumper. not sure what happened to it.
