*Custom lip kit with rear diffuser for 2015+ Nismo* Prototype

I wanted to get your thoughts. I spent some time in the garage making cut outs of cardboard to the specs I wanted. It all looks better in person and would be great in acarbon and maybe fiberglass or aluminum painted black option.

The front would help protect the bumper from scraping it up, the sides add a slightly wider look and the rear diffuser would just look gorgeous.

The key would be extremely lightweight and super easy install.

Another shot of the sides. Disregard the box holding it up underneath

The rear of the 2015+ Nismo needs a lip/spat kit that extends the rear half of the sideskirts and rear bumper downward, since the stock body has that "rake" to it

thin lip all the way around doesn't do enough for me

I could easily make a a spat as well. I was working on those for a while and it was getting a bit cold in the garage

The attached pic is what i envisioned. The RCF has a similarly shaped rear bumper. Artisan Spirits has a lip kit with a rear bumper extension

Got it! Give me a couple hours :)

Looks good so far. I do wish more VENDORS offered more for the 15+ Nismos. Look forward to seeing the finished product. :tup:

Thats why the Carbon Signal kit is kind of a disappointment to me

The side skirts are good but they don't extend all the way the length of the OEM side skirt, so it looks odd from some angles

They have a rear diffuser but no lip, so basically its invisible from the side (its black and is just a shadow)

Something that evened it out all around would be nice

Volk Z 03-03-2017 01:03 PM

I agree optionzero, I think I wil do the entire side skirt as well and will add the rear spat which I was thinking about anyway! I actually found one similar for a GTR I like a few months back so we were on the same page.

The other issue besides outrageous price for CS kit is it drops the front even lower...

When I did a diffuser on my sonata turbo daily driver it looked really good... with the nismo it would look gorgeous!!

yeah CS is . . . not that fun to deal with given the price, the wait , and its not exactly what i want

Volk Z 03-03-2017 05:19 PM

Optionzero, do you like the rear fin idea like I have it?
The sides would go the whole distance, front would be the side splitters with an option for middle bar to join sort of like CS does

I have been talking to slickcarbon about some parts. He already has made the front carbon pieces seen below and a carbon nismo replica spoiler 2015+.

I am looking to get some parts made, obviously the more interest the more stuff we can get made. I'm looking to ditch all the red and cover with REAL carbon. He's in it appears so I'm waiting to hear price etc.

Volk Z 04-25-2017 02:26 PM

The wing pic would be basically what I would have him do for the add on of the 2015+wing.
The other pic of the front is his work.

OptionZero 04-25-2017 04:37 PM

I don't want to lose the red in front, so that piece isn't for me

What's going on with the spoiler? The 2015+ is totally different from the 09-14 nismo spoiler.

Is he doing a copy of the carbon signal cover? If so, i'm down for that, i'd just need to find an older nismo wing.

I don't know how that would work for our spoiler, i'd need to see what it turns out like.

OptionZero 04-25-2017 05:00 PM

Found him on instagram. What he did is an exact copy of the 15+ Nismo wing, but in Carbon.

Really not what i'm looking for, since i already have that wing from the factory and just changing to carbon does nothing for me.

i'm planning on going with either an Ings+1 Z power wing or a older nismo wing with the CS cover anyways

Volk Z 04-25-2017 10:13 PM

Yeah I'm cool if I'm the only one covering up all the red with Carbon :). I just wanted to put it out there for some people.

Yes so since he has the mold for the wing I want to see if he can do an add on for this wing. I tried to do the trade a hatch deal but it wasn't working out so a carbon addon works for me :)

2015nismo 06-22-2017 03:15 PM

Anything going on with this? I like the rear diffuser and how it leaves the red visible.

Deqos 11-21-2017 10:18 AM

Any update on this? Planning on going the nismo bodykit and would love some rear spats! Only like one place makes any lol, and I want to go carbon fiber on all the accents as well.. Please don't give up on this!!

I had a custom carbon diffuser made and all my red is gone thankfully.

God-Speed 12-20-2017 06:12 AM

Volk, looks good. :tup: Any word from you guy about a rear spoiler add on for our cars?

PAYCO 12-20-2017 07:16 AM

Does anyone out there make front canards for the 370z Mk2 Nismo ?. Would love a pair but cant find them anywhere.

Yes I have 2 guys here in so cal that can do it but I don't have time right now for my car to be the guinea pig. They can do a prototype and then go into production. Anything we want.

So if someone in so cal wants this in can put you in touch with the guys that made my diffuser

PAYCO 12-20-2017 09:18 AM

I am based in the UK but would be very interested if this product ever reaches the market.
