Front aero deflector on Aust model

Nah we don't have them and I suspect that's why we have a coefficient of drag of .30 as opposed to .29 in the States.... yes it's small, but I want my .01 gone!!

I also noticed we don't have these. Why would they not put them on the aussie model?

Could it be possible that these need to be fitted at the dealer and they have simply forgotten to put them on? I noticed at a dealer near me that their 370 in the showroom doesn't even have the chin diffuser or the cover that covers the tow hook in the grill. I wouldn't discount this as a possibility. Look how many Nismo's were delivered with their spring restraints or whatever there called still fitted.

The front black bit is fitted before delivery by the dealer.

When I bought my red Z from Village Motors they got it from Metro Nissan. So we went there to check it out. It was wrapped it up in the boot.

Are you talking about the front chin spoiler or the deflectors in front of the wheels?

chin spoiler.

didnt get no deflectors, just like other Aussie Z owners.

it might be in the 2010 Z and then you can buy it as a spare part.

when i was washing the car, I looked where the deflectors would be and there are some bolts.
