Can you install this bumper with the Zspeed undershroud?

Anyone mechanically inclined and access to a 3D printer? Perhaps one can create a mold that can be bolted onto the bumper, but also be able to rig one of these up:
X.DRL - LED Lighting From The Retrofit Source

That's what I would do if I wanted to install DRLs. Bleh, but hey it's cheaper than the OEM ones.

Progressing too slowly if you ask me. ;)

All done

Any way someone can list off the full OEM part# list everything needed?

Are you sure that is not photoshopped? Looks a lot like what I did.:icon17:

Haha I know lol!! You were a big big part in helping me decide how I wanted to go about putting this all together! Thanks a ton! Now I need to order a duckbill spoiler I think. I'm thinking about the Carbon Signal Type N as it doesn't come up as high as the aerojacket.

It looks good. Enjoy.

Any updates on anyone making carbon fiber add on pieces?

If you guys give me a heads up on how many want the front 2 pieces in CF, I will make them..... but without knowing how many are willing to commit it's not worth forking the money for the mold.

How is the wiring for the DRL's? Is it really involved or is it close to plug and play? Did you have to take apart interior panels for the wiring? I'm on the fence about getting the front if the wiring is a PITA...lemme know

Pretty much if you have a 13+ it would be plug and play. The drl's have a Socket like the ones that come on the 13+ bumper.

Any of these write ups will work

Installation Guide for Nissan 370Z LED DRL Enable Kit

I can ask on the facebook group I know of 3 other people that have the front bumper conversion. How many people would you need?

What about the rear, is the red an extra piece like up front or is it just painted.

anybody try to fit 2014 LEDs thinking of modding bumper to fit my dLRs and thats WIN if it works..

I know they are different shape.... I dont think that they will fit.

Just my 2 cents my friend!:tup:

Anything can be done with molding and cutting, you should know that Carlos after your lip mod. Question is the cost. Yes, they are different, but how much different? The 2014 DRLs seem flatter then the 2015 Nismo DRLs, so who knows how they would integrate.

If someone lets me borrow the 2015 DRL I can 3d scan and see if we can make an adapter piece to run with aftermarket DRL or something.... IF there is a demand

The problem is with the actual size of the LED's behind the bumper. They run long vertically. I tried after taking them off my 14 bumper.

Here is a pic of the 2015 Nismo DRL's for reference

OK for those of you who have done the rear bumper is there anything special I need to know. From what I read there are fender extenders also for the rear is that correct? Any other parts besides the bumper and accents needed? Anything I need to forewarn the body shop about so I am prepared.

My plans got accelerated on doing this thanks to someone behind me deciding a red light meant don't slow down or even stop.

There aren't many people that have done a conversion with the new kit. I'd say maybe 10? I know one person on the 370z facebook group who is doing the rear bumper he said he will get it this Friday so you might want to ask there.

Custom brackets could be built, opening reshaped. It all depends on the cost.

:iagree: bro!!!

What site is the best to buy the kit with DRL's

Found this pic.

in my personal opinion... dont liked :/ I think they have to change the other parts (side skirts and rear bumper) to make a cleaner look...

But like I said... its my opinion... If the owner likes how it looks great haha!! cause that at the end of the day is what really matters :tup:

The new side skirts are part of what makes the 2015 look so different. It creates an entirely different visual side profile of the car. It's amazing how little that front bumper does on the Nismo pictured above with the absence of the side skirts.

:iagree:

:iagree: you get my point... and the rear bumper have to see small too

OK so I hit a deer on my way back from Zdayz and am looking to do the front bumper conversion as long as my body shop plays ball (insurance quoted me $1100 so that should be plenty to cover this).

Can anyone confirm if it will fit with the zspeed undershroud (which I have and would like to keep)?

Also heres the parts list im looking at:

FBM22-6GA0H Front bumper $380
62087-6GA0A MOULDING Red insert $25
62086-6GA0A MOULDING Red insert $25
62077-6GA0A MOULDING Vertical insert $9
62076-6GA0A MOULDING Vertical insert $9
62064-6GA0B PROTECTOR Fender liner filler $10
62064-6GA0A PROTECTOR Fender liner filler $10

Total: $468

Am I missing anything?

LEDs?

Fits the under shroud, just have to make a few new holes in the shroud. Only thing you are missing, finding all those parts. Took me 2.5 months to track everything down. Parts are being painted finally now. Skirts, bumper, spats.

Yea Zspeed will work get the non-nismo one. I have mine sitting in a box will be going on Thursday. Zspeed sent me everything I need for it to fit perfect with the 15 front, but you can get it to work without the extras.

Your list looks like you are missing the 15 fender liners. They come down farther and extend out a little closer to the edge of the bumper.

Im not bothering with them.

It looks like I can get them from my local Nissan dealer without issue. As long as I can get the main bumper cover right away I should be in good shape for now.

I was under the understanding that we didnt need new fender liners, just the extenders, which i have the part numbers listed. Is that not correct?

It's could be possible I didn't try with the old oem fender liners. I do know that the new ones extend down farther and there is less gap. I am still waiting for my extenders to come in my Nissan dealership just sent them out to me yesterday so waiting for them to get here. I'll post back when I get them with pics.

Edit: looking at the pics Azyd posted http://www.the370z.com/nissan-370z-g...ml#post2973034 It looks like the difference is minimal between the two. So the extenders probably could work with the old liners.

I got the bumper that Joe @ Zspeed used for mocking up his undershroud. Mine should be out of paint the end of next week. Monterey Blue, instead of the gun metal I went with paint match silver to the shrouds-z turn markers-door handles, and candy tangelo orange to match the current candy orange pieces I have on the car. The Monterey blue is getting blended into the door on the passenger side since I needed a new fender on that side as well painted. Front bumper, passenger fender, side skirts, aerojacket rear spats, passenger door mirror-window trim-handle removed and reinstalled, blending the door $1500

Post pics when you can. I went with rear spats also as I'm not a big fan of the 15 Nismo rear. It isn't horrible but I prefer the non-Nismo rear with spats I think it's perfect. Good job getting the side skirts too they really flesh out the car with the front bumper.
