In this image you can see how it is a one piece that sits on top of the hatch. http://www.japanesesportcars.com/pho...-nismo-006.jpg If you were to put the 2015 spoiler on a non-Nismo 370Z or a pre-2015 Nismo, there would be an overhang. |
I know its one piece fella, that's why I mentioned that there wouldn't be a gap perhaps. ;-)
So now I'm assuming if I were to replace just my 2014 spoiler with the 15 nismo version then perhaps I may have the opposite effect whereby the spoiler overhangs .. Who knows.. My first criteria which I don't think has been answered as of yet by vendor Julio is if the 15 uses existing holes or not. Personally, I can't be botheres either A drilling new holes or B filling existing ones. If its going to be an easy swap meaning hardest part removing existing spoiler with no damage then I'd give it a go. Sent from my SM-N910T using Tapatalk |
Okay so from my understanding from this thread, for the front bumper you should get the red inserts (paint them whatever color), fender liner add on is not necessary, under tray is not necessary (buy you only get 2 bolts to attach to the base under tray?)
Any other parts I'm missing? It would be great to get all the findings and update the first post on this thread with it. |

As far as the holes, no clue. But logic would say that they would be the same. No reason why they would drill separate hatches for Nismo model. But Nissan logic is not always logical. |

2 X Red inserts 2 X black inserts (they are little ones that go down in the bottom corners below DRL's) 2 X fender liner extensions They also ordered a small insert that goes in the grill that no one else had mentioned still waiting on it though to see exactly what it is |

I think the over hang might be easier to live with and less noticeable, then the bumper sticking out. |

Anyone ever resolve the elundertray issue? Is this not able to be ordered? I'm thinking of getting the z1 undershroud and drilling the appropriate holes where necessary. I'd assume some trimming of the forward edge would also be needed.

Looks good. I think it still works pretty good without the DRL. Did you paint the entire grill area black cherry as well?
|
Yeah it's solid black cherry.

Needs the skirts, I think.
|
I plan on the whole aero kit as money allows.

Be aware of the rear. It will stick out some without the wing, and I am not sure if the wing would fit a convertible trunk lid, as it is shaped differently then the coupe I believe.
|
Yeah I saw that but got plenty of time to figure that out

The center was finished I believe in a grey but filling in the nismo badge holes caused it all to be painted.

I ordered the side skirts today also after seeing the Nismo in person I liked the side skirts even more. Now I need to figure out what I'm going to do for the rear. Right now I'm thinking spats just not sure. |
When you click on 370z on the left side you will see a selection that says New Nissan OEM parts. Click there and then you will see the kit.
|
I feel an itch. If I were to plan this out, I'd probably repaint the entire car a different color in the process. Lots of $ which could very well fund an engine build.

I'm trying to get that paint code. KAE, K52, KAT maybe in the center piece it is a gray. The little spot between the red inserts is also this dark metallic gray.

As a side question would anyone have insight on hooking up the OEM drls on a pre-13 Z? I'm still straddling the fence but I know me and I'll end up buying them. |
A quick comp I did of my car with the 2015 Nismo bodykit

This is my bumper currently I'm not sure about the red insert but I'll leave them in to see if I like the look. |
For anybody interested there is a front and a rear bumper for sale painted black.

I'm disappointed by the vertical vents below the DRLs. They don't look to be functional, as there is a black plastic piece there. I hate cars with scoops and vents that are just for show. What is this, a BRZ?
|
They could be functional if you don't put in the inserts. It's open and air can flow through just don't put in the inserts.
|
Did anyone manage to get the inserts CF wrapped with resin?
|
I saw pics I think in this thread of one person with them wrapped
|
What about having a shop get id for the hole for the lights. That would probably be a lot cheaper than buying the DRLs. Here's a quick photoshop of what I am talking about.
http://www.the370z.com/members/bruce...on-no-drls.jpg |
That's not to bad actually
|
could probably save almost 1k going this route instead of the DRLs

That's what I'd like to have done as well. It'll require some raw material and bondo. The drawback is risk of cracking from flexing and temperature changes.
|
So to those who installed this kit, is it as simple as remove old bumper, attach new one or are there some extra bits that go underneath that need to be replaced as well? How easy is it to install yourself?
|
have we already established that the 13+ base DRLs do not fit that opening, so no matter what, you have to buy new DRLs if you want them?
|
Or leave the holes open (as most have done) or shave/fill them in as per brucelidat. or fab your own DRL's.
