Amuse kit with Nismo skirts (what do you think). Photoshoped.

I thank gtkiller for the pictures. Sorry for bastardizing your car.

I have been concern with how low the Amuse skirts are in the back. I have heard comments about scrapping in that area.
So I have been trying to match the Amuse with various skirts (not blades), but nothing looks right.

However after seeing this picture, I got to thinking that Nismo skirts might be the answer. I did some photoshops, please let me know what you think.

The pic that I saw:

Looks ok. I don't think it flows as well...

It's hard to beat those Amuse sides :)

The second photoshop makes it look good but by looking at the first and last photoshop it doesn't flow as well

I agree with both.

If I were going to swap out my sideskirts and not put the full Amuse kit on then I would look at the Stillen ones.

Kind of surprised by the dislikes. I think it flows fine.

kenchan 08-13-2013 02:58 PM

i like them both, but i'd probably prefer the amuse sides with that bumper.

Jasonle 08-13-2013 03:06 PM

amuse side :)

Add the carbon signal nismo add on pieces to the side skirts and it would look really good.

It would add some black/carbon to the sides to accent the front bumper - really bring it all together.

Not terrible but not great either.. I prefer the Amuse sides.

I had that same thought.

So do I, but I am worried I'll damage them in my drive way. Even if I go in angled.

The Amuse definitely hangs pretty low. Does anyone know how much lower the Nismo skirts are compared with the base/sport body?

cooltoy 08-13-2013 04:06 PM

I was under the impression that they were pretty close. From another thread.

So yeah, I can tell you the ride height is about the same. But since the Nismo front is longer and doesn't go upwards up front like the non-nismo front, it makes the nismo closer to the groud and far more easier to get scraped.
