Your gonna have to be more specific as to what body kit... most body kits require a small amount of cutting and sanding, the 2013 models should fit any bigger named kits regardless of LED's (they may have to be moved or taken out completely).

On top of this please utilize the search button for certain kits, some people have build threads that let you see what they had to do to get what they have working, it can prove useful

This.

Unless you want to customize the body kit or the LED's, you will have to remove the LEDs. the only body kit that utilizes the Stock LEDs is the new version of Varis.

If I recall correctly, VeilSide updated one of their 370Z body kits for the DRL wiring.

I think it's this one.

Costs as much as a used car though.

But I don't think those are stock DRLs.

They aren't the stock DRLs, but he did say "wiring" so perhaps the Veilside aftermarket DRLs use the same connectors as the OEM ones.

Thanks for the reply! Awesome that you spend the time to answer my questionWould you rather have the body kit you pictured or an Amuse Body Kit? I know for a fact I am going to be ordering a body kit the week I get the car so I'm just wondering (: Thank you so much again!

I am getting the Amuse. Going to try to see if I can make the DRLs work in the Amuse vents. There are two members here that did it - Simota and Majestik. Interestingly enough majestik switched to the varies kit recently.

Your other options are Fujimura:

Old



and new.



New Central 20



Rowen (formally known as Tommy Kaira)



AB Flug



Or just a Varis lip.

I'm a big fan of the Fujimura front or the Varis lip on the stock bumper, personally. Both seem like decent options for keeping your DRL's.
