Help with a front lip ID - OEM nismo/something else?

evensen007 · 03-22-2014, 10:36 AM

As far as I know, this is a Nissan OEM factory nismo lip painted 40th anniversary. Does that sound right?

Could it possibly be this, or would this be a close alternative?

I don't think it's S-tune. It's probably a rep. Nismo S-tune has a Nismo badge. I suppose the badge could have been take off.

Does this look similar to the pictures to you as well?

Yes. It's a replica of the above original..

Thanks guys.

I just ended up buying an original OEM from Nissan. It was 650 shipped and it comes pre-painted. Not bad!

As if the front end of this car isnt heavy enough, lets put more weight on it with this fat *** lip to make it look ugly while we're at it

I'll show myself out now

cooltoy · 03-23-2014, 03:07 AM

Alrighty then. Will write that one off to PMS.

I hear ya. I'm usually super-sensitive to adding too much of an aggressive (possibly ugly) lip to an already sexy front. I was deciding between this and the Evo-R lip, but these pics changed my mind:

I never liked the s-tune lip style, but this car looks good with it

What wheels are on that??
