Well....

Following a Teg over to pod earlier today, he drove over it, which flicked it up, me following, saw it coming, and BANG! buh bye Aero front!

So, what we all think? :)

well, no point in sulking about it... that won't sort it.

it was a big lump of plaster board!!! bastard thing is.... my job.... i'm a plasterer! HAHA it's all the white dust you can see on the left side of the pic' and in the cooler, is plasterboard. The engine bay is SOOOO dusty!
it looked like from behind when an F1 car pops and the smoke is flying out the back, is was MESSY

Could've been alot worse is the only way i think of it, it took the best root really, hit and under, if it'd come up, damaged headlights, scratched bonnet and smashed windscreen.... well.... imagine that bill! :S

Sorry to hear :(
I think you should get another aero front :D

Is the other bit still in one piece?
Can't it be fixed?

it's well past being fixed, the other bit is ripped in a couple places.

i would love to get another aero, but as we all know... they're a knightmare to get hold of.

I'd be willing to even pay nissan prices to get another too!!!! So, any assistance on how to go about getting one even from nissan would be great, cause as i recall someone saying that nissan UK can't get them??? :S :(

HAHA!! DOH bloody plasterboard... always say... even when out of work, i still get hindered by the bloody stuff!!

You won't get an Aero bumper via Nissan GB. Full stop :(

It'll cost you around ?800+ to get one via Japanparts. You can get them cheaper on Yahoo Auctions, but you'd have to check if one of the Yahoo buyers in the traders section can ship bumpers.

Well worth looking at Apex's body kit GB. Entire Ings ABS kits for not a vast amount more than one front Aero bumper... Click

Hehe unlucky dude....

Looks like someone has expertly hacksawed the broken part of your bumper off on the Left hand side??? Looks like a neat cut i'd say!


Wonder who did that??? :p :p :p

some bloke called Jordan took great pleasure in cutting the remainder off from the center of it! LOL

I'd pay japan parts for the areo front.... i'm not keen on the Ings kit that Apex are doing sadly... and i wanna keep to ABS really...

yea, i know it's plastic.... but just not too keen on it though. :(

It's the gap at the top of the bumper, along the bonnet line.... i prefer the closed look.

japan parts are lookin' into getting one for me...
