Found out why there is not one making 370Z front and rear lights. Turn out Nissan has a patent for the shape of their headlights and taillights. So to make one still have to shape like them and that will get in trouble with Nissan. This time Nissan is very smart.

You mean patent?

Im sure they wouldn't mind if they were given a commission on every set.

I'm guessing, if you can even pitch it to someone at Nissan who could do it, that they aren't going to give a ****. Hope I'm wrong... I would love to see some new options out there.

Wonka2581 03-16-2016 12:47 PM
Or if someone would make components to modify the tail light, I.E. New internals and lense. That way it wouldn't infringe on the "patent" it would simply be a mod.. Not a direct copy of Nissans tail light.

Wonka2581 03-16-2016 12:50 PM
Also if there's a "patent" on the tail lights, who made these??

Nissan did. They're JDM.

Bump!

NorthStyle 03-17-2016 03:07 PM
At this point it might be best to look into a custom/retrofit option similar to what the VIP guys do. An acrylic LED setup for the parking/brake lights and some chasing/sequential signals would look pretty nice...

OldBonesMcGee 03-18-2016 07:39 AM
Surely Nissan can't be the only ones who patent the shape of their lights.

Also Valenti make lights for the Nissan GTR, surely if Nissan were going to patent the shape of the lights, they would do it for all their cars an not just the 370z.

I smell excuses :P

Similar to merc style:

Tails only:

Tails and Brake:

Tails and Turn Signal:

All lights on:

All off

Sidelights

Sides and brakes

sides and turn

sides and reverse


Not a million miles away from what the current lights are, but the solid diffused glow section would make all the difference I think, it would bring the look right up to date with the current BMW and Audi counterparts.

Rate or hate :)

This is really clean. I love the way that you incorporated the curve of the light into the design. I also love the placement of the signal into the long section at the bottom. I think overall this design is miles more sophisticated than oem. Round off the edges for the brake lights and I would be interested in a set. Great work.

No one makes aftermarket lights for our Z'z, but they are trying to get something in the works.
