STILLEN 370Z Urethane Fascia - Sneak Peek - In Development

This is kinda an off question, will Stillen be releasing any details so that a pattern can be cut for clear bra placement. Spent a boat load getting the Z's

This is kinda an off question, will Stillen be releasing any details so that a pattern can be cut for clear bra placement. Spent a boat load getting the Z's clear bra put on. Would hate to get this front end on and painted. With no way to protect it.
Thinking I'm waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay ahead of myself.

It's interesting that you mention that. For a long time Josh and I have been trying to work with a clear bra manufacturer to see about offering clear bra as an available product for our urethane. Unfortunately we don't have a 3D scan or anything like that which we could email or release to suppliers but we're hoping to work with a company like 3M to give them a fascia and they could simply sell it to their installer's.

So basically at this time, no, we don't have an easy clear bra solution but we are working on getting that setup.

That price is well within my price range. I have recapped some Q & A’s to keep them up front for future development.
Great job Stillen!

This would def make up my mind to pull the trigger, if the facia will house the Injen CAI system. Not to mention, increasing your client base.

Count me in for a bra, my vote would be for Venture Shield film.

Well, I am very excited right now! I have just come back from our modeling shop and this fascia looks fantastic!!! There were just a couple of little areas that we weren't 100% happy with so we wanted to spend some time massaging the mold and making sure that everything is perfect. Everything looks great! Fit and finish is very nice and the mold is flowing nicely.

So, for those of you who have pre-ordered your fascia's they will be shipping in the next day or two. I'm having the guys take a look at the grills right now and they should be done with them soon. I think we have enough time to shoot and clean a couple parts today but I dont like rushing the cleaning process.

Thanks for your patience and I am confident that it will pay off!!!
