2015 Nismo Bumper on 2009 Sport possible?

martin82 · 09-19-2014, 12:01 PM

The red trim is prepainted the bumper no

I was busy yesterday, so I really only had time to unbox it and take that pic. I will probably be able to get more pics later tonight, if wanted. I can say that some additional hardware will be needed for the red pieces. They snap in, but there are three screw holes. At least I think they are for screws.

I will be able to get details about the undershroud when I do the test fitment this weekend.

Anyone interested in the aftermarket custom fabrication DRLs?

The red portions were Photoshopped in body colour.

Here are some of the money shots...

This is the back of the red trim pieces

Back / inside of the bumper.

This is on either side of the bumper at the top edge, under the headlight. I don't recall something like this being on the base bumper. I could be wrong though.

Quote:

This is on either side of the radiator venting. I wonder what goes there. Perhaps one of the "protectors."

Thanks man, repped.

Awesome repped! Wonder if you can just slap this thing on with out the extras.

Aviator44 · 09-20-2014, 05:03 PM

The bumper will probably still look good even if you left the DRLs out.

If there is interest I might look into doing brake ducts off the DRL location thoughts?

After selling the DRLs from my 2013 bumper, I started looking into DIY ducting solutions.

Home Depot has these register boxes that should fit the 2015 DRL holes pretty well, which are 12"x2". I was going to do CAI ducts, hence the 90°. I think it will fit the left side, but the right side, with the washer reservoir, I am not so sure. Spray them in black and add some steel mesh and it would look good. Obviously, some type of flexible pipe will be needed as well.

Nope. Z1 was not sure what else would be needed to make it fit, so I just ordered the fascia and red trim, hoping that the rest of the OEM stuff would line up. The MSRP on OEM fender liners is around $80 and they can be found for $40 from other manufacturers. Hopefully the new ones will be similarly priced. I check the Nissan's parts site frequently and the new Nismo stuff has not posted yet. Gotta be a dealer I suppose.

Time for the good news, and the bad.

The bumper clips right on and fits great, to a point...

Quote:

The front fender liners do not match! There are also those holes for the fender lips. Probably best to fill those in if you aren't going to install the lips.

But the undertray does!

martin82 · 09-20-2014, 06:11 PM

So you will prob need the older nismo extenders or the new ones, awesome work

martin82 · 09-20-2014, 06:26 PM
