nrenz123 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) So, I'll update this fully but just wanted to start the thread. Basically, bought this with 6k on the clock. Loved the 2015 Nismo, so decided to do this. I ordered the Nismo rear today so will add pics when its on and painted.

Jonnymonno Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Very nice, are you changing the wheels too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrenz123 Posted March 7, 2016 Author Share Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) Cheers guys. Unsure on the wheels, I do like the Nismos but they'd cost near £6.5k from Nissan, but i can get around 17% off that. I'm struggling to find some I like more than the stock wheels. I do like these Work Emotions And these Edited March 7, 2016 by nrenz123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMartinPGrant Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 (edited) right i can't hold back anymore, tell me everything you needed to order, including part numbers and price, for the front bumper and sideskirts lol PS it looks good these wheels looks best Edited March 8, 2016 by MrMartinPGrant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikevv Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Silly money for wheels IMO, coulda bought a mint '63 plate genuine Nismo in the "zeds for sale" section when you add them all up together. Good luck finding nice wheels that don't break the bank, and keep posting pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sipar69 Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 (edited) Although I prefer the Nismo mk1 styling, the mk2 front end does seem to look good when transplanted onto the standard 370 shape. I would have left the rear as it is though. It would look very individual and less like an attempt to create a replica. Nismo LM GT4 wheels in black look very good on white 370s (but not easy to come by!). Edited March 8, 2016 by sipar69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliot350 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 good luck with getting the wheels you are after. forgestar who make them are a bunch of tossers, I currently have a set on my 350z. upon delivery from the US one was damaged which ups refused to accept liability for as it didnt meet there packaging guidelines. forgestar said they would offer a slight refund in order to cover the repair, also 3 out of the 4 wheels had areas of paint missing; they wouldnt even supply the colour code for me to get paint mixed over here! I personally wouldnt go anywhere near them, if i were you id go for the works wheels. rant over on the other hand car is looking very nice!

josh2005 Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Where's the best place to get the Nismo front bumper from? Have been searching! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dal B Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Directly from a Nissan dealer mate, that's where I got mine with all the trims etc. Nowhere near as much as I was expecting as it cost me £280 for the front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrenz123 Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 (edited) I made this thread a week or so ago http://www.350z-uk.c...o-part-numbers/ It may be of use to you for part numbers. Edited April 25, 2017 by nrenz123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gstraw Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I've been wanting the rear for a while! or the rear of the older V1 Nismo. any ideas what that part number is or cost for the V1 rear bumper? thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrenz123 Posted March 23, 2016 Author Share Posted March 23, 2016 These are from the US so may not be the same as the UK; HEM23-1A47H - 2009 - 2013 HEM23-1A40H - 2014 HEM22-6GA0H - 2015 Give Gary @ Humphris an email via the second link above and he'll be able to sort you out.

Out of interest, are you just leaving a gap where the daytime running lights go or planning to fit them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattross1313 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I need to stop looking at this thread!! Looks really good dude, can't believe the price from Nissan for the parts. Very good indeed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrenz123 Posted March 23, 2016 Author Share Posted March 23, 2016 (edited) The prices aren't toooo bad really. Silly things like the badges are overpriced though! Speaking of which, parcel just arrived with the final one i was waiting for. Full house. The anniversary badge is actually cheaper that the standard 370Z badge!

sipar69 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 It would be interesting to know the total cost of sourcing and fitting the bumper (minus painting). I find myself wondering what my Mk1 Nismo would look like with a Mk2 front end. A dog's dinner possbily, but it's an interesting proposition that I might think about doing in a year or so to keep things interesting.

nrenz123 Posted March 23, 2016 Author Share Posted March 23, 2016 The front bumper is around the £420 inc VAT before any discount. That includes the red accents and other inserts, doesn't include NISMO badge or DRL. With discount, around £350. http://www.the370z.com/exterior-interior/95060-2015-nismo-bumper-2009-sport-possible.html Pretty sure toward the end of that thread there is a few pics of a early nismo with the new front end.

sipar69 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Thanks. Clearly a popular mod in the U.S. I couldn't see a Mk1 with the Mk2 bumper, but I'll have a proper look soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sipar69 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Sorry last question. I noticed in your parts list thread that there are a lot of small parts/attachments that go behind the bumper and which don't appear on your list. Is that because you reuse the parts already on the car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrenz123 Posted March 24, 2016 Author Share Posted March 24, 2016 For the front or rear? For the front the only part I haven't been able to source is a bracket for the front impact sensors. I have fixed these in place manually. The rest is completely bolt on. I think you may require a new under tray as yours in longer, saying that it may be an extension piece.

nrenz123 Posted March 24, 2016 Author Share Posted March 24, 2016 (edited) Oh and a front plate holder if you want it. I've taped mine onto the horizontal part of the bumper. Edited March 24, 2016 by nrenz123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
