you get the idea.


Also, from profile it just looks like something is hanging off the car's butt, maybe extending the piece towards the front of the car where the wheel arch begins. From yellow arrow to the red line shown here:

While I am at it, here's another suggestion :icon17: How about extending the CF piece in the fender all the way down to the side blade. Like this:

Anyway, just my opinion

I agree with the rear part but the sideskirts have to be like that because it is a universal fit for all 370z, not just the Nismo skirts.

I meant extending the CF piece on the fender further down so that it meets with the blade on the sideskirt. What would change is the fender not the sideskirt/blade.

damn very good points.

Looks much better. QUOTE=Ron;2389696]Hmm looking at the rear diff better I think it needs to follow all the way to each side of the car. Kinda like this, excuse the 5s mspaint job, you get the idea.

Yeap, I think it ties everything together and flows much better. The diffuser is pretty much picking up where the side blade left off. With that and the extended fenders it looks like everything is a "single piece" vs several different stick-on parts.

What do you think CS?

Thanks guys for the comments, keep them coming will try to reply as they come.

First thing is maybe I wrote it up there as well, we are waiting for the fog light so both the diffusers are not installed in the pictures they are just stuck with a tape in the middle for pictures purpose, we packed driver side with some cloth to move it up the exhaust but i guess didnt succeed properly. As its difficult to get a nismo to work on so for the pictures we just placed the diffusers for picture purpose.

There wont be any gap anywhere between the diffuser and the body either on side or top and final gap between stock exhaust and diffuser is almost close to one finger, not like in pictures its hanging on tips because not stuck properly. The owner wants to install once light is here as we usually we silicone to stick parts

No it doesn't replace anything comes on top of it more like slides on it. Will take some pictures to show that and height.

:tup: we thought about making a full piece but then only people who would have cried were people here, making a full piece increase the size for shipping, as an idea making sides shipping will jump 150-200$ because of the whole package side.

We are always up to do it custom for anyone interested but as a product which we plan to sell mass wont work out that much at this stage, maybe after selling for few months and looking at the response and purchase we can do a revised version.:tiphat:

That more like 350Z superleggara again as I said earlier current side skirts will go with stock or other vendors fenders and dont want to limit people buying either both together or nothing. As when you make the outer/removable fender piece bigger then side skirts needed to be adjusted accordingly.

Yes and No:icon17:

Universal yes, but will fit only Nismo not regular 370z

370ZNISMO#704 07-03-2013 12:35 PM

I am hoping for a full CF kit fender/wing/lipkit. But would love a red carbon possible but I'm poor lol. Also if buying a kit would give huge discounts over piecing it together then for sure would want to go with a full kit.

CarbonSignal 07-03-2013 01:17 PM

Are we ready for GB!

Just for the info there was one spot for sponsorship which is still empty couldn't find a car which can start promoting us in shows ;), offered to one guy but he backed out because of shipping

370ZNISMO#704 07-03-2013 01:25 PM

That scares me then on how much it will be to ship these pieces. Is there a way we could buy a huge wood crate for all the group buy people and ship it to Cali to save a little.

What we quoted as we wanted the kit to be on the car by mid july via fedex was around 800-1000$ but then price we were charging was almost 80% off.

We did look into wooden box via sea but lousy box itself was 1800$ lol. Anyways people will like what we will offer kind of free shipping to one vendor in US so you guys will pay normal internal 48 state shipping
