2015 Nismo front fascia kit clearance

razzzor · 01-08-2018, 04:24 PM

Does anyone know how much lower the 2015 Nismo front fascia sits compared to the standard one? I'm looking at putting it on a 2009 model but don't want to get it if it sits a lot lower to ground. I won't be able to get out of my own driveway without it scraping if it's more than an inch lower

I emailed Z1 but they didn't seem certain "may be about a half inch lower".

Thanks.

I don't have a non-Nismo bumper but the lip part actually angles upward slightly, and overall the 2015+ Nismo aero isn't low at all

The only part that might scrape is the rubber crap underneath, but . . . thats why its there

It's really low. My nismo was lowered around 1.5 to 1.75 inches and I only have around 3 to 3.25 inches of clearance.
So stock sits I would say around 5 inches plus or minus. It is true the plastic crap is what's the lowest but the slant doesn't mean that isn't susceptible to scraping.

Hope that helps.
