I like the aggressive look and knowing it provides great airflow is the big plus

Also since its designed with the G3 in mind the design is completely functional as well as aerodynamically tested

I really like the idea of the hole to pass air through directly to the filters. It's too bad there aren't more bumpers that have something similar or the option to do that. Our Z's seem to have no direct air flow to the intake filter area. Even more so compared to the G37's which have a separate grille, making G3's placement more logical.

No issues with sagging on mine at all. Again, done by a very capable/professional installer. It came in 3 pieces, and I have not heard of that changing in a more recent version. Have to bond and blend the pieces together.

I'm not going to bond mine together. It's really not bad at when not. I want to have my car wrapped so maybe something can be done there.

Carbon signal already has one in frp and carbon I believe, however I am not convinced with their business model and customer service. From what I have read they have a problem with keeping in contact with customers and lead times

some pics of mine, ignore all the road rash/chips etc. Stock windshield wiper reservoir is on the way, you will need to trim around it. Also I plastidipped it black because it sticks out like crazy... I also posted some pics so you can see the 3 piece and how it sags a bit.

You can hear the intakes a lot more with the Stillen bumper. Now I need to wrap it matte black but its gonna be a PITA.

What are you saying that sags? I've seen a couple of kits that have some gap near one side of the headlight but that's no big deal.
