Hey im going for the NB SE look
i have a
NB 01 MODEL
SILVER IN COLOUR
my plans are to get
SE FRONT LIP
AIR DAM SPLITTER (CARBON FIBRE WRAPPED)
Lowering
ROTA GRID wheels (maybe.. mind keeps changing)
im aiming for a Silver / black / Carbon fibre look
=========
Question about SE REAR END.
1. theres a small rear lip? i think on the bumper, is that actually a lip or just an entire rear bumper?
2. Can i keep my original mudflaps on if i get this?
==========
I hate the oem side skirts, ive searched a bit but cant get anything.
I want a side skirt that i can wrap up in CARBON FIBRE AND get it to like maybe match up with the front air spltter im gonna put. and look god on a silver car

It is a separate lip.
PS all above body work is OEM SE, except for the TDR front splitter.

That looks like it'd be just the bumpers shape.
Hm.. Anyone try fitting the rear lip on a standard rear bumper?

Is that a diffuser on the rear lip too? I want that so badly now. HAHA
Anyone know where you can get one?

You'll need to drill holes into the bootlid to mount that type of spoiler (1 in memory).
You won't be able to put on rear-mudflaps if you choose to go with the SE rear bumper (it won't match anyways).

I thought that when I saw where it came around. I think I'm willing to sacrifice my mud guards for that rear bumper lip...

I am totally happy for it to just be a skirt and have no function. hahaha. Is this even available separately?

If I could, I'd buy the Mania one right now
But you're totally right. I'll just wait till I actually own one
