Lgear080's Deconstruction of an Icon - Nismo V2.2 Battle One Off
 
5 Attachment(s)
I got into a small fender bender (with a puddle) which really toasted
my authentic Nismo V2 front end. I have always liked putting my personal
spin on body work, and this repair was no exception. We deconstructed
the elements of the front end, glassed it, and did a full repaint. The
results are very interesting. I never liked the busy entry of the nose,
so all of that was eliminated.

I look forward to other people taking my lead here - so feel free.

Always interested in both positive and negative feedback too.

I've sourced more mesh from 1ill350z which should be installed in short order.

This is a great compliment to my forthcoming r35bbk install.

Enjoy!

you get A+ for effort. Not really my cup of tea but well done, as long as you are happy.

Entaille Jan 14, 2010 03:12 PM

I think it looks great - well done. you have some talent.

I like it! Id like to see this on an FI setup.

lgear080 Jan 14, 2010 03:39 PM

i should be clear that it was my concept, and my bodyshop's execution.
the work was performed in Fort Lauderdale, and is excellent - especially
considering how badly damaged it was.

i like... i spy an oil cooler too nice..

A bigass intercooler would really set it off!

dkmesa350z Jan 14, 2010 05:32 PM

like it better with the grill, but no canards looks nice.

killa.beez33 Jan 14, 2010 06:13 PM

Not bad. It kind of looks like a shaved Amuse front end for some reason? :dunno:

Is it just me or does it also kind of look like a catfish without the whiskers? haha.

Lovin' the wheels!!! :thumbup: +12 TE37's FTMFW

Looks sooooo clean!

DozJr7 Jan 14, 2010 06:53 PM

scratch the r35bbk and get a TT setup. Unless of course you already have it.

Lookin ill...


I will def follow your lead here pretty soon...my V2 has suffered some heavy but small cracking on the passenger side wheel well part, but hasnt yet spread to where the bumper starts to curve in.

Im assuming in time, it will though.

Great idea, i never liked the budy grille section, either. My 1 dislike about the v2.

It looks very similar to the Tourenn front bumper.

Lovethat bumper ^ just wish it went lower in the front, the lip/bottom of it is way too high up.
