Factory Ground Effects

Has anyone tried the factory ground effects kit, I found it on my local nissan website. It doesn't list a price. I will call tomorrow and see if they have it on a brochure or something and get more pics and info..

the only thing to watch out for is that the factory "areo kit" as they call it is not the same as the annaversery kit. the areo kit has a two piece rear bumper not the three pieces of the AE kit. the middle piece is missing. you can get the pieces seperatly but it cost more. i bought the full areo kit the got the rear piece also . check my home page to see it installed.

Did you buy the car with the kit on it already? Cause you have the AE headlights too. The reason I ask is because I interpreted your post as you bought the kit and then installed it.

According to the Kelly Nissan website it is an Aero Kit for the 2K2 and not the anniversary edition kit. Can anyone verify this for sure?I guess I can find out for sure on Monday and try to get a price quote.

Oh okay..but the rear 3 pieces come unpainted. So didn't you have to paint those? I called 2 dealerships about the rear section of the AE kit and they told me that since it was a replacement part and not an accessory part (like the AE kit), it would come unpainted. One of the dealerships was Dave B's. Just curious.

yes it did need to be painted i forgot but i didnt pay for it because the dealer felt bad that he had told me the areo kit was the same as the AE kit and was not for he had it painted for me.

He has a 2k2 though, so the front won't fit. Also, he has to remove the sides on the 2k2 and replace them with the AE sides. They are different.
