be aware that with the piping of the stillen in place the air ducts have only limited functionality even though I think a bit of fresh air in this area is better than none / only from the bottom. As I have installed additional coolers for my AT, engine oil and an upgraded PS cooler I feel it at least cant hurt to bring more air in there. While driving it shouldnt be too bad as there is still clearance.
The installation took me like 5 hours where 1 hour was cutting out the stencil, another hour making the openings a perfect fit for the ducts (the stencil isnt too accurate) and like 3 hours of cutting, testfit, cutting, testfit to make the ducts clear the piping while still maintain the most of the carbon inlet as possible.
The ducts are secured with black self-tapping screws - I didnt use the silver screws supplied as this would have looked too ugly imho.
Fortunately the 370Z front bumper seems to have pretty much the same angles as the 350Z so it really fits nicely if you do the openings and clearance mods right. You should have a very sharp knife/cutter, a file (I used an electric one which made the job a lot easier) and a cutting disc to modify the ducts for the piping.
The idea with the black mesh feels good, I will give it a try soon and post updated pics.
