Installed Password JDM Carbon/Kevlar Pieces

johnnydrama · 01-10-2020, 10:29 AM

I had been eyeballing these for awhile and thought they really looked sharp in the engine bay. Price and the fact Password JDM mentions installing on a NISMO at your own risk had detoured me in the past plus just some general fitment (Quality) issues mentioned here on the forum.

However, they were running 25% off all of December so I decided to pull the trigger and was pleasantly surprised last night when installed. With just a small dremel and a little filing on the front middle hood latch cutout of the nismo bumper, the new cooling plate fit right into place. No modifications were required to the Carbon/Kevlar piece whatsoever and the section I had to dremel/file still looked factory but is also covered up by the new cooling plate.

Thought I would post here in case any others were on the fence like I was.

I state that in the thread as well but thanks for needing to chime in as you always do with your comments.

Literally the point of my post was to point out all of the issues I had heard about. But in my recent purchase and installation, everything was as expected.

Try to be more productive with your post moving forward please.

Thanks for this too! I have been on the fence with my 09’ Nismo and looking at the results and the little tweaking to make it fit I went and bought one too. I get it this week! Thanks for the images and your review.

Also, that looks good. Glad it was an easy install.
