A&Q about 350Z
Q:
Hey guys,
I found someone who makes replica Nismo Version 2 front bumper for a reasonable price.
My only concern is whether it will fit perfectly or not.
From these pictures you can see there is some gaps where the front bumper is not completely touching the car. (fender area)
Any thoughts?

Knock-off parts will NEVER fit like OEM. Since you've already seen it and will expect it, you have to decide if it's worth saving some money to have a part that will not be perfect. If that's a fair trade to you, then go for it. But don't get the knock-off and be surprised when it doesn't fit perfectly. And definitely don't buy a knock-off, decide you can't live with the imperfection and then go on and buy the real deal later. Then you'll have really wasted money.

i'm not saying they don't fit. i just wouldn't want to spend all that money and have it not fit correctly. i'd rather buy one that costs a little more that i know will fit.

nope its all good, like i said theres alot of good feedback on my350z with pics of the fitment with some of their other kits. Their made out of a hybrid plastic or something too, so their ultra durable and flexible. might be a wait to get one though
