Default STILLEN brake cooling kit

Hello all,

I know this is something we have been talking about for awhile, and something you guys have been requesting for even longer. However, the time has come to announce the official release of the STILLEN 370Z brake cooling kit. This kit has been in development for quite sometime as we wanted to take a lot of things into consideration and wanted to do substantial testing before releasing the kit. As promised, this kit is designed to work with our urethane front fascia with the optional "inlet fangs." There will be two kits, one for the people with the fascia, and one for the people with the factory (non-nismo) fascia.

This kit utilizes 304 stainless steel which has been laser cut then folded on a 7-axis CNC press. We tested this kit at Fontana Speedway the same day we were testing the new Carbon Ceramic brake discs for the Nissan GT R. Check out the blog and website for more information!

One thing, the instructions don't say how it attaches to your bumper, just stock.

I also ordered the fangs since I don't have them yet.

Completely trolling. I'm sure they are still working the Nismo kit side of the house. Considering there are less Nismo's than base, they prolly wanted to get these to market first. Nismo's will get yours too. You special kids you!

Did they tell you it was Unobtanium, that's why it cost 10k?

I told someone that when I worked at a dealer and he looked at me like But I stood my ground and he believed me. It wasn't till they told him he couldn't afford it and had to leave that I felt guilty. Then I had a Pepsi and felt better about myself.

Really cool. Do you guys have any pictures from the front of a factory front end? The only front view I saw was of your facia with the fang inserts.

Why the big price difference between the kit for the Stillen fascia and the one for the stock fascia? Looking at the pictures of the kit they are the same. Or is it that you don't need the front brackets for the Stillen fascia?
