Who does the best body kits/parts?

[djburke87]

I have everything performance wise done to my car I want done for now, or at least have all the parts sitting around to do it. Now I want to focus on the exterior. I am looking for a nice spoiler, not a wing or anything too tall. I am also looking to add carbon fiber trim on the bottom of my nismo body. I like the 3 piece from splitters some company sells, and the additional carbon fiber side skirts. I also like the carbon fiber rear diffuser that Zociety has with the painted red stripe.

I have heard plenty of horror stories concerning fitment etc. about several companies, but I haven't heard any positive reviews about these things. Who are the best companies to buy these things from, or are the all the same?

Money no object?

To an extent. I'm not spending $10k on trim parts, though.

The carbon 3-piece lip (I'm assuming V2 Nismo) and side extensions are available from Carbon Signal. Next Level Performance is a vendor/importer for them. Their fitment can be great or not-so-good, but generally decent. Fly1 make a rep buuuuut they're fitment is all over the place from excellent to atrocious (I've heard more bad than good and I've never heard anything positive about their customer service if you're outside of their local area, so I'd strongly avoid).

The rear "diffuser" (I'm guessing the Street Aero by the description) I've heard mostly positive. It's not a functional diffuser, but if it's the look you want then you should be fine.

Most JDM companies. Fujimura, Top Secret, Nismo, Ings, Varis, Aero Workz and Zele, just to name a few.

Price usually determines the quality.

This is the kind of info I was looking for. The diffuser I couldn't find on Street Aero, but this is it on Zociety: https://zociety.org/product/370z-201...rear-diffuser/

I am more interested in looks than appearance, for the record. Although some additional performance would not be a negative.

Huh?

The actual definition of appearance is "the way someone or something looks."

Did you perhaps means to say "more interested in looks than performance"? Context seems that way.

The Zociety item is made by Fly1. It has no performance testing, it's just made for looks. Most of their designs are just copies of existing products. Fitment is inconsistent at best.

Unfortunately I am not aware of any JDM companies making products specifically for the 2015+ Nismo. It doesn't seem to be a popular car over there.

Carbon Signal makes a lip kit; Fly 1 just released the knockoff of that.

APR makes a front splitter only

thats about it

Haha, whoops, you got it by context though!

That is the impression I was getting. I was wondering if someone knew of anything I hadn't found yet. Thanks!
