That's the totally messed up part about it, someone please find a cheaper alternative.

yea...if you wanted to cheap out, you could make a fiberglass mold, and throw these into it:

X.DRL - LED Lighting From The Retrofit Source

figure out a way to make a clear lens to go over it. anyway, im growing to kind of like this bumper..

Yeah, they said the price is just for the bumper without any accessory. It is missing the red cover and i'm sure a bunch of stuff plus the led's but like chops said you can create a mold of them.

Hey cooltoy, any chance you'd be willing to change the colors on that chop you did to a black cherry with sunburst bronze wheels and bronze accents on the bumper and headlights? Maybe add a ducktail rear spoiler if you're feeling generous? I'd like Z1 to take my money for one of these bumpers immediately.

Not an easy task, as there are very few images available, but I hope this gives you an idea.

By the way trust me, the duckbill is back there, just hard to see because of the suns reflection.

Thank you sir, my imagination can take it the rest of the way. Now just to find out how much the LED DRLs are going to cost..

edit: $800 each for the LEDs?!?!?!??!?!!? WTF

Haha, doesnt look half bad! I am close to actually doing it(that's my car btw!) Did you leave the red trim pieces their original color? Doesnt look half bad they way it showed up!

Quick question before I jump on the hype train...how long is the total car compared to the older nismo version, from nose to tail? I really love the longer look of my current nismo, but am slowly falling in love with the current(especially the sides and rear!)

Think ill just OEM DRLs....I always get burned when using non oem haha!

Been lurking this thread for all the info, and now my 15 Nismo swap is finished including headlight swap. For those that wanted to see it shopped on a Black Cherry, here's a real photo. I'm gonna post more soon when I get good photos. Painted the "blades" Black Cherry and the grill Satin Black. Here's the only photo I have.

Anyone know the measurements on the led's? Or give Z1 a shout and see if they can measure the openings for the led's?
