I really like this front, I think it is on my to-do list. I am pretty fair in photoshop, but not good enough to change the color to Winter Frost. Could someone that is better than me change the color so that I can get an idea what it will look like? Thank you very much.

I agree with the side skirts as well.

I can't say yet what we have in mind for the side skirts as I don't know yet. I can say that with the 350Z we have a few different styles with different ways of attachment. One is an overlay, another is a direct replacement with factory mounts.

Yea that works and even earlier if possible. I need to know a couple hours before it comes in also. Cause i live a couple hours away and i need to get off work and come get it before you guys close. So if it comes in Tuesday or Wednesday i need to know that morning so i can leave around lunch and be down there before you guys leave.

kyle@stillen wrote:Hey guys,

I'm glad you like the fascia. We are VERY proud of this piece and I am very glad you all like it so much. We actually spent 10 weeks on this fascia. Normally we can make a new part in only 2-3 weeks, in fact our previous longest was about 6 weeks. With this one we wanted to make sure that everything was spot on and we feel it is the best fitting, best designed fascia we've ever made.

If anyone in the So Cal area wants to see it in person feel free to stop by our shop. The blue Altima coupe is now our pride and joy and sits out front of our lobby every day.
any plans for the sedan? from what i've found out there are 2 differences between the stock coupe bumper and the stock sedan bumper. the first thing is the headlights... if you guys were to make more for the sedan headlights it should fit perfect. and the only problem is that the coupe grille and the sedan grille are different so that has to be made bigger...otherwise it should fit perfect...hopefully you guys will make a facia forr us sedan guys too...and also one more thing. i've sent an email long time ago inquiring if you guys are going to make a newer version of QR pro for the 2007+ model...i never recieved a response so since you're on the boards here too i hope you give me an answer.

In regards to the front fascia for the sedans. I don't know just yet what the plan is. I don't want to say yes without being positive that we are going to come out with something for it. I can say that we are going to look into it and because we have pretty much all the work done on the coupe if we decide to make a matching fascia for the sedan, it won't be a big deal.

In regards to computer tuning for the Coupe it's too early to tell. Right now we are looking at a lot of different options. We are going to be having a new product meeting here soon and I will bring up both of your questions to Steve at that time.

thanx for the reply, you guys are one the very few people who make mods for the new altimas. it seems like since intakes and catback came out all performance production from other companies came to a halt...keep on adding mods to the list and i promise that i'll buy

Stillen Supercharger, turbo would be nice but man do those things get hot. No question the power coming out of a turbo is second to none. I just wish Stillen had a fuel managment system that was much less labor intensive with all the wire cutting (350Z). But I agree with what's been said, great to have a company comitted to making a variety of quality parts.
