2015 Nismo Bumper on 2009 Sport possible?

It is discussed somewhere in this thread.

I've read this whole thread a couple of times and I didn't see any blank insert talk mentioned. I've heard a lot of talk about putting mesh in those spots, which is probably what I'm going to do if I don't get the EvoR DRLs

I guess they were talking about making the red pieces in CF and taking the mold of those.

Another option maybe is to have the body shop fill the holes in.

I might try fiberglassing them shut when I do my bumper

No updates yet. The shop said they should have it all done by end of week or possibly beginning of next week. Im having them color match the red accent pieces and fill in the badge holes as well.

Quick question if anyone can answer. I know you can't use the older Nismo bumpers along with a license plate relocation kit. That still true for this bumper?

You can order the moweraxle kit, that's what I plan on doing.

Some inspiration.

Looks so good. My bumper just came in today. I'm looking to get the car wrapped this spring so I'll have to wait a month or two to put the bumper on

I would love to do something similar with my 2012 Z. Can anyone tell me where you buy the bumper/parts to do the front bumper conversion with the lights? Also would like to do side/rear. Thanks for the help!

I ordered a hydrodip kit to play with the red accents
