Oh shoot. I just noticed you dont have the fake third light in the bumper. Looks much better imo.

Yeah early models don’t have it. Funny you mentioned this because I was just looking to see if there’s a way to add it LOL. Just because most cf diffusers are for ones with the third light. Also maybe doing the f1 blinking brake lights might be cool.

But I think my only option would be to get a bumper with one so it’s ok I’ll keep mine haha

That little enclosure WAS available as an individual piece but has since been discontinued. Non OEM alternative is EVO-R, but you will need to cut a whole on your bumper to allow room the fog light housing.

Slimmer profile rear led fog lights (non 370z specific) are available though.

Thanks for the info! I’ve seen the EVO-R ones but have seen a lot of mixed reviews about the company and its products.

Have not seen other slimmer profile rear fogs though, I’ll look into that and see how I feel. Thanks!

Had my EVOR on for 10 years. No issues, so far.

Probably the best looking car here. I'm afraid it will make me go for Nismo V1 wheels and spoiler....

Alright, i probably did something that's not very popular, but I am not a big fan of the single walled titanium HKS tips. Yes i know they are signature HKS and they are JDM af, but I prefer the stainless steel rolled tip look more. So...I cut my brand new HKS exhaust and welded new tips on

little nervous in the beginning...

the welds

Now it's perfect to me

also replaced the OEM heater hose connector with an aluminum one

another shot of the v2 Nismo steering wheel since i didnt love the first shot i took of it.

I think the single walled tips look good on a smaller diameter pipe. If it's larger, then it needs to be rolled. I'm with you on this mod.

Rjk370z · 03-03-2025, 01:39 PM

Dude, im really digging your car. Nice work

ed_423 · 03-03-2025, 10:16 PM

Thanks guys! It’s pretty good the way it is now. I’m not sure if I’ll do much else to it…

Though the urge to get some v2 NISMO seats and some te37sl’s lingers
