What they told you is correct. It's part of the sport pkg, so if you don't have the sport pkg., they shouldn't have put that front spoiler in your car (hence my 'freebie' remark). But you should be able to still get it on. Just because you didn't get the sport pkg doesn't mean the mounting holes aren't there. Indeed, I'd be very surprised if they manufactured a different front fascia for cars with sport pkg vs. those without, as it's more cost effective to just make one.

Thanks! I found a few on FB, they're kinda random though. This one has the most members.

Congrats on the car. It brings lots of smiles, the harder you drive it the bigger the smile.

Random is right. Judging by the number of high school kids I would say only a small fraction are actually owners. Need a 370Z Owners group.

Should we maybe start a thread in the General Discussion section to 'advertise' this Facebook group? AK are you cool with that or is that a no-no?

Windows are tinted, intakes next. I'll look around and see what everyone has done. What else? Do we have a facebook group yet?

Welcome to the forums

. Can you post picture of the chin spoiler?Because EVERY Z comes with a thin long air dam/chin spoiler. The spoiler on the sports package is two pieces. I didn't install mine because roads here are not good.

How about some pictures of your car?

We have our own facebook account. I'm using a computer with firewall that blocks it. I'll post later.

You sure about that AK? I'm pretty sure the front chin pieces (3 total) only come with the SP. See the screenshot below I just took from the nissanusa spec page.

That's the one I was talking about. It comes stock with all Zs. Maybe dealer got lazy and didn't install it.

Actually, if I remember correctly, that lip in your pics is part of the front fascia. Like when you pull the front fascia off (to install intakes), it comes along for the ride.

Edit: the pic below shows my car with the front fascia removed. Notice that the lip in your pics is in front of the front bolt holes for the undertray. In my pic, you can see those holes, and see that there is no lip attached in front of them -- that's because the lip is attached to the fascia.

I agree. It's going on.

Here they are:

I can't keep up with you guys. Thank god I got my work done before I got on here today.

Yep, those get mounted in front of the tires. No need for any special tools. Regular sockets work just fine (10mm, if I remember right).

Good looking car!

LOL I always enjoy the walk back from the store to the car. I have really missed that the last couple months.

AK370Z · 06-11-2009, 01:20 PM

Car looks nice! Congrats!

Yes, you DO have the sports package chin spoiler. Are you planning on putting it on?
