Default Nismo conversion checklist?

Tried searching and I am either not looking hard enough or plain lazy. I'm trying to make sure I got my pricing right for my nismo conversion. I'm converting a 15 sport.

Front Fascia kit (not sure if this is the bumper as well???):

https://www.z1motorsports.com/front-...it-p-8198.html

Side Skirts:
https://www.z1motorsports.com/door-s...ts-p-7596.html

Rear Fascia kit:
https://www.z1motorsports.com/aero-a...ia-p-4289.html

I dont care for the headlights and the other goodies like floormats and everything else can come later. I think sub total before painting and install should be around $2.8k. I plan on doing most of the installs myself, outsourcing the paint. Is there anything else I need to know about? I remember reading something about the under tray needing to be replaced, is that true?

Thanks,

That thread is chock full of people that have already done the conversion. And it also has a list put together of all parts needed near the end of the thread. To make a redundant thread and to show lack of care to search yourself makes most users reluctant to help. Just FYI

There is also a list near the beginning of the thread as well. Also I think there is a link to a particular website that sells the front bumper with everything else you need to fit it properly. Enjoy the read

You'd save a lot more money just selling your sport and buying a nismo. To get the seats your looking at nearly ~5k? for the pair. You can get the aftermarket equivalent and have an upholsterer modify them but that's not cheap either, then you have the wheels and steering wheel. And then come all the smaller things.

Also I am not sure on newer models but the older model nismos had different front under trays from the non nismo ones.

Well its not going to be a full on conversion as I will be skipping plenty of parts, wheel, LEDs, seats, headlights.

If you're not doing a full conversion then why are you making everyone else get a full list of parts for you?

Did any of you MF's read the last half of my post or do you all want to keep swinging dicks? I was looking for a list if there is one. But I never said I was doing a full convo in OP or perhaps anything else I need in additional to what I listed in the original post.

"I dont care for the headlights and the other goodies like floormats and everything else can come later. I think sub total before painting and install should be around $2.8k. I plan on doing most of the installs myself, outsourcing the paint. Is there anything else I need to know about? I remember reading something about the under tray needing to be replaced, is that true?"

Found the part lists within 5 minutes of scrolling through that thread. I also copied and pasted them on to a separate file BUT I'm too lazy to share it here. Good luck!
