Who wants 2015+ Nismo Canards?

Over the past year or so I've been getting requests from people wanting canards for their 2015 Nismo Z's. If we can kick start this project, who's serious about this?

Default Who wants 2015+ Nismo Canards?

Over the past year or so I've been getting requests from people wanting canards for their 2015 Nismo Z's. If we can kick start this project, who's serious about this?

Style:
Currently there are styles such as:
(1) Simple (Looks > Function)


(2) Aggressive (Function > Form)


Single or Dual?

Let's start a discussion and entertain some ideas here.

Front of the 15+ nismo is busy area, probably good pic of setup for both options would be good to see to decide. IMO

I do agree with Bboyz about the front of the 15+ Nismo. I do think less would be more. Like the ones that came on some of the Porsche GT3 rs.

the space for mounting is limited, or at least a wierd shape, so i'm interested to see what you can figure out

and hey, if u wanna make a lip/splitter that looks good and is cheaper than the stupid Carbon Signal deal and doesn't leave a gap like APR . . .

Here are some examples of canards on other cards with bumper openings roughly similar to the 2015+ nismo

I think this is the only option for the 2015 Nismo bumper. Under the DRLs.
