F S : V35 Coupe Urethane Nismo Style Front Bumper Bars

[Nightcrawler]

If you have ever dabbled with aftermarket bars for the V35 you will come to realise (as I did) that our cars are VERY low, and fibreglass bars break quite easily and are an endless source of frustration.

I finally bit the bullet and ordered one of these awesome copy Nismo urethane bars out of the USA. Then when I got a postage quote of $1,250 I nearly died. So I bought a few to make the postage cost effective, and subsequently have spares for sale.

They are imho superior to the factory Nismo items, as these are made of urethane (in fact they almost feel like rubber), whereas the genuine bars are fibreglass and break with a decent crunch.

The fit is near enough to perfect, and indicators fit near enough to perfect also (unlike the other fg bar I have had, the fit of which was AWFUL).

They are located in Adelaide, but I can ship if required. I would imagine shipping would be around $100-$150 within Aus depending on destination. Weight is around 10kg, but obviously cubic weight is much higher.

$1.000 each (which if you have ever imported one yourself you will realise is a great deal - and saves you the headaches importing them and the issues and costs with customs I won't go into!).

These are THE bars for V35s in my opinion, and given they are urethane and almost unbreakable, may be the last bar you ever buy for your V35.

I want this....but my wallet disagrees with me

Yeah but look at it as an investment - if you went out and bought a fibreglass bar for say $350 and had it painted $250-$300, you would break it in around a year and need a new one (like I did). Instead, buy one of these for $900, have it painted $250-$300 and it should last you for the life of the car ... plus the finish on them isn't bad - you could easily run around with it fitted and unpainted until you could afford to get it painted

These are a nice bar. Goodluck with the sale. You would be mad not to buy this over a fiberglass bar at this price. Cra-zy!

Here's a pic of one trial fitted to my V35 (unpainted - and needs a bit to more work to get perfect - will be 100% perfect once painted and refit). Getting it painted shortly.

Nice. It looks like a great fit - but now I just want your lights...

I would really love to have a nismo bumper but i have an oem front with new lip on now. Furthermore, someone donated 2 x GTR fronts to me..... so it would be a waste not to try on the spares before buying a new one. First world problems.... sigh. Btw how much is shipping to NSW anyway? Who knows -> A magical pot of gold might be at the end of some rainbow waiting for me.

Hey Superdry, did u and your cousin / brother buy the gt Wing carbon + set of wheels and tires from me ? I think Im the one who donated the GTR front. did u figure out to make some use of them. pardon me if im wrong

[SuperDry2013]

Hmm sounds like a matching story. My cousin just said he had a surprise for me one day. The bumpers are sitting in storage for now until we have time for fitment. Its a little "Ricer" but i'll give it a try. How come you did not want the bumper?
