OK finally got the front fascia installed. Was not too bad. The lower spash shield can easily be used, you only have to drill 4 holes into the Nismo diffuser so it can attach to the OEM splash shield, and two more screws line up with the diffuser holding it in place. Doesn't need to be hacked or streched or anything. Lines up like factory. The only issue is the corners, where there is a small opening. There are two tabs that are not used to secure to the diffuser but it's no big deal. Another thing I found is the wheel well liners are different and don't fit perfectly with the "protectors" (the little plastic pieces that cover up the gaps. The liners just overlap a little and are fine. Not sure I want to bother getting the Nismo liners. I'll post up a pic this weekend. Nismo rear bumper getting painted now, hope to have it installed in a few weeks along with the side skirts.
