gonna be a LOT of bits and pieces that you will need. All of the measurements are off - if you are planning on using OEM spec, you have fender liners, grill pieces, braces, front WHEELS, nothing is the same except the grill and the headlights. even the underside may not match up.

So..actualy I made it, had to buy:
frontbumper (except grill, pdc, camera)
fenders
sideskirts (in fact of the wider fenders of the gt r)

Also installed some tikt louvers

Now just waiting for new wheels because of the wider fenders (25mm per side factory so about 35mm that it looks good)

Front axle is the same than gt r, so gt r only has different offset at front wheels

Looks awesome, and sounds like fewer parts than I'd have expected.
