I like it! I can't wait to see the final version.
The front end is one of two areas of the exterior I don't like about the non Nismo 370Z. The other is the area around the exhausts on the rear bumper cover. I like the Nismo look better.

Thanks so much for posting a partial version. Stillen gets points from me both for sharing partial progress as well as for inviting input during the design process.
I like it. I'll wait for the final to see if I'll be getting one, but I like it. A top priority for me is the brake cooling. Trans and power steering are nice, but the vents do seem like a bit of overkill. My preference would be to include a somewhat-disposable bottom lip for the inevitable pavement encounters. I really like that about the stock design.

any more progress on this bumper? I am just finding this thread for the first time. Personally I love the simple and aggressive design of this fascia. No fangs, huge functional side vents...love it! Maybe make the bumper slightly lower or add an optional lip/splitter to bring the visual height down a little with a functional aero undertray? I would like to see the wheel arch character line meet up and flow with the crease on top of the side vents ala Nismo as well. Well done overall!

The fangs are modular. They posted a thread a few weeks ago to finalize the fang design. You can get the fascia with, or without.
Urgent help needed!!!

i am liking this a lot. stillen has always had my attention and i mention them to all my buddies who have or are getting a Z.
anyways im in for final results as well, i wouldnt suggest making it any lower, and if u did maybe just a very very small addition. |

Nice concept but the side vents are a little too overstated, if the edges were taken off the square lines of the vents it would look better and blend with the lines of the car. Stuttle lines would be a good things for those big vents.
