I sure don't want to screw up the new car.
You can do the install by yourself. Read this guide and another DIY by another member and you should be good. HOWEVER, during the bumper removal process, you MUST need another person to hold the other side of the bumper.

The thing you should watch out for is to buy a good dremel. I spent hours cutting that hole with a hack saw! So, get a dremel or something good, have a lot of patience (i took my time and spent close to 4 hours because I was taking my time), carefully remove the bumper. There's a DIY on bumper removal in the DIY section (by DIGITONIUM). Def follow that. Helped me out a lot.

Good luck.

Thank you . yes unfortunately you do have to remove the bumper. But it's pretty easy. I was VERY nervous too in the beginning but if you follow the bumper removal DIY, and have a person or two help you hold the bumper as you remove it, it's VERY easy. As for cleaning, it depends on your driving areas. If you live in a dusty area or country road, it's probably needs to be cleaned quicker. Ask Josh for the average K&N filter life before recharging.

Heck, if you go over to the Stillen site they have specials going on till the end of the month. If your in the market for an CBE you can get a free intake (I think for the 370Z it is the G3 intake).

Exactly. It's a great deal but I don't believe I want their exhaust. Just the intake. Probably end up getting this combo and as soon as it comes in I'll be posting a brand new exhaust for sale lol, but maybe not. Gains would be nice but I'm not a fan of the tips.
