I mean maybe I'm looking at it wrong. I'm looking at it in terms of efficiency. If I can achieve the same look/performance for cheaper, that's the way I'm going to go.
My car doesn't have the OEM Nismo bumper..but it's damn close. And my whole kit fit perfect for 1900 including price of the entire kit, fitment and paint and installation. Maybe that extra money is just for piece of mind...

But you said it yourself, you do not have a front bumper that is equal to the Nismo OEM front so of course yours will be cheaper. I had my rear bumper replaced to the Nismo OEM, paint cost $600 but this was all done via insurance (lady hit me) so I did not care.
I will just say it again, quality comes at a cost. You did not get an exact OEM Nismo front so it is cheaper, I bet you had fitment issues so lower cost, did it bolt up to the coupe undertray?
That is one major cost for the Nismo front bumper. The OEM Nismo undertray is $1500 (this is just Nissan being stupid), but there is a good alternative at a higher quality for $500 but cost of front bumper plus this undertray needed adds up.
