I didn't know how they mounted with the fangs for their bumper until I ordered the fangs last night and looked at the pictures. The fangs have circular openings on the back side that the hose attaches to, so no bracket on that side of the kit. However, when I added in the fangs, it was actually more expensive for me.

Woo I like this. I will probably order one before my next track day. This will allow the pads to last a track day or two longer easily

We're changing the images on the website now. Yes, the STILLEN fascia does not use the smaller brackets. As Mike pointed out, the STILLEN fascia inlets already come designed to incorporate the ducting.

We are looking at what we can do for the Nismo cars. The biggest problem we're having is making it look good. These integrate pretty seamlessly into the factory and STILLEN fascia, unfortunately the Nismo fascia does not have a good opening for this.

...guess this will present the stock bumper folks who are using those holes to route cold air to the engine bay with decisions to make...

My concern is how the tubing will route through the passenger side since my oil cooler lines run through the same space.

We have not looked into the G37 yet.

Realistically, if you have a G37 and/or a Nismo 370Z, the STILLEN fascia kit will be the one to go with. The backing plates and hoses will all work fine, it's just a matter of getting the mounting bracket for intake to work. The big problem we're having when looking at the Nismo, is making it look right. And to be honest, we haven't looked at the G's yet.

It can you will just want to make a custom front bracket, and maybe get air either in the side scoops or paint it black and do a fitting/scoop on each side of the lage opening.

Kyle,

Can you please comment on compatibility with your oil cooler kit and the lines running around the passenger side? It seems like the oil lines and brake ducting need to go through the same area.
