NISMO front, Amuse Sides/Rear
 
My current front lip has some damage on the passenger side corner (unfortunate event on the highway...). Not only that, bottom of the bumper where it connects to the engine shroud is ripped on 4 out of 7(?) mounting points.. and of course, some damage to the fender liner as well..

I have been considering either to fix the damage (keeping CS rep front lip, probably mold the lip with the bumper) or getting the NISMO front conversion done.

I would save a lot of money by just molding/fixing the lip as opposed to getting a conversion done. But fixing the lip does not necessarily mean that the mounting points and other parts will be fixed (including portions of fender liner) Nismo front would, however, will get be fresh look, fresh parts (though it would probably cost 3x more), but the concern is with keeping the 'bodyline' flow with mixing two different kits.

With courtesy of cooltoy, attached hereto is the depiction of how it could look with the Nismo front + amuse sides and rear..

What's your opinion on this look?
Thanks.

Yup indeed is is.

If I purchase the Nismo, CS rep will be up for sale @ a significantly reduced price to reflect the damage :)

I think the amuse looks good with the nismo front I've been wanting the same set up.the only thing that holds me back is matching the pearl white paint is a pain let me know if you really want to sell the lip when you make the change

It looks real clean with the Nismo front. The lines flow really well.

Alright, I'm most likely going the Nismo path. Will update with pics when done.

Now playing the waiting game :)

CF lip will be up for sale soon enough. Please be mindful that the damn racoon did some damage to the lip.
