What did you do with your Z today

FromG2Z

Ken that LOOKS AWESOME. Reminds me of the front lip I had on my RX7. Do you have a side view of it? Just wondering if it still "flows" well with the car with the OEM skirts.... or does the new splitter sit so far down?

Also, where did you get and how much? simple install? Oh and is it REAL cf?

yep, i was originally going to do the top-secret CF one but due to the CF fangs i have on (which scuffed the ends of the bumper opening during install i cant really remove it now ) i didnt have too many choices left... im guessing that this one will fit under the CF fangs without doing any cutting. and yes, the one i got is real CF and was 675 shipped. they are also offered in FRP for less. got it from drivelinestore.com

the splitter is small enough i dont need to do the sides. not sure how much lower it is vs the stock sport front diffuser yet, but i dont think it's any lower which is a big plus for me.

here's where i first saw this lip installed...

ok that looks really nice. Although I am concerned about scraping that... I don't know if I could ever relax knowing that I have 675 bucks worth of a splitter perhaps scraping whenever I get on my driveway I've already scraped the stock front diffuser on the road

also what did you mean by this?
"the splitter is small enough i dont need to do the sides. "

i meant that the splitter is small in profile so i dont need to do side skirts.


yah if you're already scraping the sport front diffuser you will probably scrape this one too. the Z already looks great without a front lip so this is just a preference thing.

For scraping, I am investing in one of these:

kinda like this. (G2Z dont ask who sells this one )

FromG2Z

WHO SELLS THAT ONE???

lol... kidding.

That fixes the curb scrape for your OWN driveway. Not if you're driving your Z to the store, club, someone else's house, work, etc.... any other place with a raised entry/exit way.... you're screwed.

Not like you can pack a curb ramp with you in the trunk (uh oh... THERE'S an idea!!! I want royalties!!!)
