Count on it!

Maybe do a little Z meet at the house. I live in the middle of the Canyon and plenty of room for a get together. Maybe a BBQ when it warms up.

I don't want to replace the whole thing, just talking about switching the fin out but I'll chill for a bit. I just sold my left n#t to buy these other parts...just fishing a bit...

You may all think I'm whacked out but when you see it done I'm hoping you'll think otherwise. I have pics going on shortly of my car in pcs!!!! YEAH!!! Rims are getting picked up now. Headlights come in next week. Carbon arrives next week, Brakes come in Tuesday. I'm BROKE !!! HAHAHAH

There, FIXed your post !

Thanks for fixing that, you are so right!

im not gonna lie i considered a rd trip to ca to to visit when i read this..
but texas to ca is a bit loong.

i would probably have to invest in a oil cooler before considering that drive, lolz

motoextreme · 12-23-2009, 06:06 PM

Come on down! Texas to CA in a Z, what is that...28 hours! I'll make it worth your while, like Strip joints?

Rickey89 · 12-23-2009, 06:32 PM

that is definitely something im going to consider for the future. pending that the offer is still good.
i work in insurance as an agent and were understaffed for the holidays..works out because i get overtime which means more goodies for the car but less time to actually do anything.

The amuse kits have always been one of my favorites. They never fail to be radically extreme and stylish at the same time.

We recently found out while in Japan that the Amuse rear wing is not going to be in carbon fiber; apparently costs were too high, demand was too low, and their margin was not great. So they switched to FRP but the gurney flap option is still available in dry carbon. "It is what it is" as they say. I was disappointed at first but after thinking about it I am just pleased to see them use a material that is easier to maintain ha-ha.

We also discovered that the Amuse Vestito front bumper includes an integrated front diffuser:

I would guess that is what the square cut-out is for towards the back. The Top Secret diffuser I had on my 350Z had a similar cut-out (but with a cover). Seems a tad small, but not surprising given the Japanese seem to make everything small....

Sorry for the late reply guys. Hunter is actually going back to school so he's no longer with us at Bulletproof; I'll be helping you guys out moving forward

It looks like jran76 is on the right track. The cut out looks to be a bit small but we'll need to see want the first owners of these kits think. Since these bumpers are frp, it's easy to make it a bit bigger if needed.

This kit blows everything else out of the water; can't wait till we get them in! I'll keep you guys updated. Feel free to pm me anytime if you have any questions!
