Nissan 370Z Forum  

Anybody know what this part is called?

The black plastic piece. Thought I'd ask here before going to the dealer. Maybe I can order online. [IMG]<a href="https://imgur.com/GHqPyRy"><img src="https://i.imgur.com/GHqPyRy.jpg" title="source: imgur.com" /></a>[/IMG]

B Pillar cover. You can get them in Carbon Fiber. Don't remember where.

It's a B pillar.

IIRC, Nissan calls it a "B Pillar Finisher". Courtesy Parts has exploded views with names and part numbers.

In a way...

Mine had these goofy fake air intakes when I bought it. I thought they were just stuck to the glass with double-side tape or something. When I started pulling on one all of the plastic fasteners broke and off it came.

That's fine, I wanted them off anyway, but I wasn't sure how to go about getting the factory part without going to a dealer.

So... after removing those B-pillar scoops, did you notice your Z being much slower?

Even if you snag a used set that are kinda shabby, a little wrap wouldnt hurt them. Surprisingly they turned out better than I thought it would.

I ended up buying a new pair from Z1. They come with the fasteners too, which is good, since I broke all of them getting them out, lol.
