You don't need the brackets but then you have an ugly gap where the nismo fender liners mate to the diffuer and bumper. Plus it's not structurally as stable without the brackets because they tie everything together.

Not to highjack, but if ya want a set of aftermarket Nismo front liners, I have a set for $50 plus shipping Carlisle, PA. Ok, done with my plug. It is an expensive conversion if using all OEM parts. Just the rivets I think are $5 a piece. Some guys got creative with the protectors using garbage can plastic. It's all in what ya want and how ya want to get there. Also, the $950 undertray can be bought in a much better version from ZSpeed Performance for I think $400.
