I have the K-Break Platinum Complete kit on my LS. Fitment was pretty spot on. But then again I paid a good bit to get it.

Check l-tunedarts.com, I've seen a kit or two on there. If it was after MC I'd see if you wanted to buy my Wald Executive it, also you can google Version Select, that s a kit a bunch of people are getting lately.

version select looks good but it seems they only made them for 04-06?

Any reason the side skirts wouldn't fit on my 03?

(edit) heres the version select kit for the 04-06 models.

what im going to do is order the side skirts, and then piece together a front and rear lip for my 03

is there any reason the side skirts for the 04-06 models wont fit my 01-3? I don't see why not , right ?

this is one of the coolest lip kits ive seen for these cars and its also one of the cheapest

I plan on getting the Shine Auto kit, the fitment is supposedly very good from what i been told, their shop is local as well saving me shipping.

I used that company a long time ago when i used to work for Nissan dealer, they made alot of aero kits for 350Z cars and the fitment was all very tight like OEM.

They are reasonably priced as well.

not bad, how much for the kit? shine auto was well respected in the SC400 forums as well, good fitment and good quality.

Its about $1100 for the full kit. The rear isn't a lip tho its a full bumper from what I gather.
