Default Possible Nismo Buyer With A Question

Hello Everybody,

I really want to buy a Nismo real soon and be able to take it out for some track day fun. I'd like to bring along some dedicated track rubber, some tools, canopy, etc. I know it's blasphemy, but I'd like to pull along a lightweight utility/tire trailer.

There's a guy who made hitches for the 350Z (see below), but not sure if they're still available.

Then there's a guy who makes hitches for various Porsches:
Willwood System - Porsche Hitches and Bike Racks

My concern is whether or not the Cayman hitch would possibly work on the Nismo.

Has anybody had their rear bumper cover off and taken some photos of the bumper bar? I just want to see iff there is a way to mount the hitch behind the license plate the way they can on the Cayman. I realize the ballmount may need to be reworked with different geometry for the Nismo, but that's a relatively minor concern.

First, I gotta get an idea if the thing will even fit. The Nissan dealer I've been talking to won't remove the bumper cover for me to take a look. Imagine that!

Pics 1-4 are the 350Z hitch. The rest of the pics are the Porsche hitches.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Don't hate me because I want to put the square peg in the round hole! lol
