Go for the OEM bumper if:

1. you don't have time and money to get a bodykit you want.

2. you want a lip kit in the future which you do need OEM bumper instead of the whole bodykit.

I also think it's easier to deal with insurance if you just want to replace with same OEM bumper.

Go for the after-market if:

1. you got about $3k-$4k for genuine lip kit and $5k-$6k for genuine bodykit. Price defer on different brand.

2. you already found what you want and can get it done properly.

I think Chargespeed is one of the most expensive bodykit, followed by Kenstyle. There's also good lip kit out there if you want to keep your V35 looking simple.

Hope this helps. Good luck.

definantly did!

Excess for my insurance is like $1,700 so no use if its just the front bumper..

probably just look for OEM front bumper since i dont have 5k to spend on a bodykit lol :D

thanks heaps!

Welcome.

Sometimes, there's OEM stuffs from V35 for sale on SAU. Keep a look out for that as well, as you can save money in that way too.

is there any other place i can get it from ?

order it from overseas or anything like that ?

and rs73 can you show me a pic plz :D

With stock bumper, I wouldn't know. Probably have to be from Nissan.

I know a friend who changed his front bumper to aftermarket. I will pm again at the end of the week if he wants to sell it. But he is from Perth and is in pearl white.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
