That's a shame! I would have thought that Stillen's stuff would be of higher quality.

Same story with their splitter. They don't make good exterior components, only good engine ones.

hey rfisc2170, Im in a similiar predicament. Some Dbag hit my bumper in a parking lot and messed up the whole allignment of my bumper as well as slightly cracking some of it. Needless to say i hope he gets hit by a car himself. regardless i just looked up the price for the bumper and its roughly 500$. They have 3 different options though, one for base/touring Z's (no year specified). 1 for Nismo's up till 13' and then 1 for nismos and 14' model or newer. heres the link to nissans website where i found all the info

Nissan USA eStore

hope this helps. Its a little confusing on the site but they have all the parts there.

My status has been "Contact Customer" for several days now and they have not reached out. I need to take a break during work and figure out what's going on. This is a first for Z1, they are usually on top of their game.

I talked to Z1 today they don't have the pricing for the 4 mounts that go under the fascia yet. Not sure if you guys ordered those or not but they are still waiting for those prices.

Are you making or having the CF pieces made or is a company doing it for mass production?

Martin when is your estimated delivery date? Going to test fit? Interested to know if those under mounts are needed or not.

I would guess it's shipping fedex ground so almost a week or so to the west coast.

I can make the front wing pieces out of CF or any laminate for that matter. I will have to see how they are attached, convert the wing pieces into plugs and make molds. Basically I will make complete CF replacements, either with prepreg 1k plain weave or 2k twill CF, raw or clear gel coated,etc..Not wrapped or overlayed originals parts. I'm going to be ordering the '15 NISMO kit in a few weeks from Juan in the vendor section for my own car and also going to prototype new items with them using my Z. This sounds like something I can make relatively easy. If there is enough interest you guys won't have to worry, I'll just make them. Pricing would be up in the air until I can see the original in person and see how they mount exactly. Anyways,not trying to thread jack,cheers'
