So I plan on running the JDM zenki side skirts, but I don't really like the way the rear valences look on the bumper. Got rear ended, not bad but just need a new bumper figured this is the time to get one (no duh). Anyway. any suggestions on what you think would mesh good with the JDM zenki side skirts would be appreciated.

JDM zenki skirt for reference:(not my car)

Searched and was looking at these.

Those oem skirts look too low key imo.

Neither of those really flow well with the Zenki Skirts.

If you're going with those side skirts, the 2nd rear bumper goes much better with their smooth body lines.

No, and I mean no aftermarket fiberglass rear bumper is going to flow with the OEM sideskirts... Stick with the OEM valences, get Kouki's or don't put anything on at all (valences)...

Either that, or sell all your OEM pieces, and get an aggressive kit.

yeah those aftermarket rear bumpers are wayyy too aggressive for the oem sides. but then again who knows till you try it.

Well, the one I was liking the most, as someone said, is the second one. It is a Nismo 270r replica. I'm gonna see if I can get measurements to get an idea of how JDM zenki side skirts would flow together.
