AIT Racing just sent me a teaser pic of their GTR front bumper kit for our Altima Coupe... wish there were more from more angles, but this is the only one he sent.

Concept reminds me of those old Acura Legends converting to Skyline R32s.

I like it, it's different. I don't like copying a G35, but click on the link for the same kit on the G35, with paint, it's give a new look i think.http://www.aitracing.com/shop/...=1445

hhmmm those look decent tqizted, maybe i dont like this simply because i cant properly visualize this as a final product, painted etc.

seeing it painted makes it look like a blatant GTR rip, not necessarily a bad thing

ugly doesn't even begin to say how I find that kit. the whole Idea of gtr kits for anything else than a gtr is a joke IMO.

the coupe has NO straight line on it, nothing remotely straight at at all. the ONLY way to pull this off is with a gtr rear bumper and a new WIDE body kit, with gtr vented fenders

A wide body kit for the A/C would be awesome. I always drool when a see a wide-body 350Z.

thats my goal for the distant future, have a body shop extend the fenders and modify some ED side skirts and turn it into a custom wide-body kit

I don't like it either. The headlights on the car make it look like bulging eyes with this front on.

Thank you! A voice of reason! The thing looks like a hungry bottom-feeding fish!

Not great, but I dont think that its awful.

I think that the other bumper that they built was better, but like mcheddadi said, the first thing that i thought of when i saw this was that it would look great with a wide body kit.

Actually, If you look at the last white pic, it looks like Tammie fae Baker's running mascara All is missing are the hideous huge eyelashes



Honestly though, not feeling the kit at all and I think that Stillen's front fascia is a lot better if one is looking for a unique styling
