New Owner and already need help!
 
Hi everyone! I'm a new owner and already cannot figure out the simplest of things :o

Does anybody know what these parts are for? Thanks!

The plastic makes it a bit hard to see exactly what it is.

Maybe take it out of the plastic and take a picture? but take it out of the plastic carefully in case it is something you need to return.

Front plate holder, wind deflectors, and the longer piece looks like illuminated kick plates.

I'll re-post tonight with the items out the bag, sorry for that.

Sounds good!

The object at the bottom of the pic are the wind deflectors/splash deflectors. They get mounted underneath.

Here is a better picture of everything again, thanks!

So the mod has to approve the pictures, but I've gathered that it is a front plate holder, air deflectors and one chin deflector. The consensus seems to be that the deflectors are not needed and usually just scrape the floor. Do most of you agree with that?

The 370z with the sport package is advertised as having "zero-lift" aerodynamics with a coefficient of drag of 0.29. These additional pieces are required to achieve this.

From the Nissan Newsroom press kit:
"The coefficient of drag remains 0.30 (0.29 with the Sport Package). The 370Z also provides zero front lift and zero rear lift when equipped with the rear spoiler, thanks to extensive aerodynamics efforts - including an "inverse area" front bumper design which smoothes the flow of air to the sides of the vehicle, while the rear design maximizes the control of air flow from the roof to the rear hatch.

Performance body pieces are available as part of the optional Sport Package, including a front chin spoiler and rear spoiler."

You don't need to use them, but you're not getting all of the benefits of the sport package without them.
