Need opinions: Amuse front and sides w/ Shine auto + Evo R rear?
So my front lip cracked and then broke into a million pieces and flew off while I was driving pretty fast on the highway the other day. It also ripped off part of my passenger side diffuser, so now I'm planning on getting the Amuse front bumper and sideskirts. Only thing is though, I don't like having a super aggressive car. I only want the Amuse front since it is the only one piece bumper that looks clean. My car is black as well so the black color does hide the aggressiveness of the front bumper from afar, compared to lighter colors. Example picture below
The rear is slightly too much for my taste, and of course who doesn't want to save money lol.. So I'm having a hard time trying to decide if I should buy the amuse rear bumper as well, or just stick with what I have right now since it's aggressive enough to match the rest of the amuse kit I think? Looking for some opinions. Do you guys think that it would look okay with keeping the rear I have right now, and slapping on an Amuse front bumper and sideskirts? My current rear set up is the Shine auto rear spats, a carbon fiber Evo R rear diffuser (just test fitted in the pictures, not mounted onto the car yet), and a t1r catback which has fairly big single layered burnt tips If I were to get the Amuse rear, I would go for a Mine's add on spoiler in the future. Though I do think the huge Amuse wing looks good, it is a bit too much for me. So something like this Opinions please?

if i had a choice.. i wouldn't get amuse kit in Vancouver... you would be the 6th one to have amuse kit. Vancouver is too small for so many amuse!!
but i know a guy locally that has a shine auto amuse kit for sale. including wing. if you are interested, PM me. He is looking to sell the kit as a whole. |

Nissan 370Z Forum - Punk86's Album: My Z!!!
This is Punk86's car who is in this forum. I apologize for not knowing how to link the pictures directly to the thread. I know the recent incident has brought you the hatred of add on lips, but at your height, I wouldn't say that amuse is perfectly safe (It sits a bit higher than your previous lip for sure) if you've already made up your mind, please don't damage it ! if not, consider going with Seibon GT style lip (or is it not?), mines, ings. If you are also looking in to purchasing new side skirts, it's not the front bumper or lip you would have to worry about. It's the side skirt. I assume you've taken all these into consideration, but it's just my 2cent. Or maybe i'm biased. Heck, I don't want one more amuse bumper driving around Van !!!!

Im not really big on the amuse rear end either, it just has too much going on for a subtle look. I agree keep your current rear end and just get the amuse front or a different lip

In your case, go full amuse. I, on the other hand have the amuse sides and rear + spoiler and rep sunline lip. I sometimes wish I had gone with full sunline. Looks so good !!

I know I'm in the minority on this, but I never liked the look of the Amuse rear. It looks too busy and goofy-futuristic too me. Just my opinion.
Looking at your build thread, you obviously have a good imagination when it comes to modding. I'm sure you could come up with something more original anyhow!

I really like the Amuse kit. Real or rep. But, I think price kept me away. I always felt that you better have something impressive under the hood to back up the look.
Here's a pic of mine with the Shine spats, EVO-R diffuser and add on spoiler: Nissan 370Z Forum - pfdaxe's Album: Mods - Picture |
