Default Top Secret Z34 Front Lip

As many of you are aware, we are also Top Secret's US office and international distributor. Details are sketchy at the moment because the lip is still undergoing R&D. What we do know is that this is a revolutionary front lip for the Z34 that will act as a front half spoiler, covering/overlapping the teeth in the front grille.

For those of you that are unaware of Top Secret, they are basically one of the six titans in the world of high end tuning. Everything from 2JZ-GTE swaps in a Z33 350Z to a V12 turbo'd swap in a JZA80 Supra. The icon of Top Secret is Smoky Nagata. Highly revered, respected, and worshiped in Japan, he can hardly ever go out in public without being trampled by fans and his own personal paparazzi. In order to simply acquire Top Secret paint, the person has to go through an entire qualification process only to have Smoky either approve or deny paint to the inquiry.

Here are a few pics to give everyone a better idea of how Top Secret chooses to represent their company.

Pics of the finished product; notice the carbon fiber cover for the front teeth.

Hi,
Will you be making a rear diff as well? I had both front and rear on my z33, would love the that combo if I move to the z34 platform.

Question,
I thought BPA was the US office/distributor to NA, for everything Top Secret....

At this point in time we are unsure about everything Top Secret will actually be producing for this car.

You are correct; BPAuto is Top Secret's North American office. 370ZTune is simply another branch of our parent distributor, Bulletproof Automotive/Bespoke Ventures .

I see some extra inlets down in the corners of this lip, are those functional for brake cooling (well, at least capable of being made functional with some ducting?).

Great observation. Yes they are. Top Secret incorporated a similar design in their lip for the R35. A definite plus IMO.

Not bad, but think I prefer the sunline front lip. I'm assuming the two are comparable in price.
