I like the rear valence especially

[SVTCOBRA]

Very nice!! I also like the rear!!

Looks great!

I'm trying to make up my mind if I want to put a diffuser on my Z. Looking at your car from the rear is helping me make up my mind!

[sniper27]

Thanks everyone. Ya, the rear diffuser helps break up the rear end a little. Doesn't work so well on a black car though. lol

[370Z/28]

Did you have to put screws in your bumper?

[sniper27]

Well, the diffuser is attached using 3M tape along the top edge. It uses 2 existing bolts on the bottom of the bumper also to hold it in place. Finally, finished off with 2 clips on the outer edge/corner of the diffuser. No holes were drilled.

[370Z/28]

I was looking at some good install pics on another site and the diffuser comes with 5 bolts. One goes in the factory drilled hole that is right under the fog light. I don't know where the heck the other 4 are supposed to go. Everybody complains that it comes without instructions. Surely I can figure it out.

That is one of the main reasons I want one. I hate that #@&% fog light. I don't know why Nissan couldn't have made a different bumper for USA cars.

[sniper27]

hmm...must be different for your car. mine only came with 2 holes for the 2 existing bolts. maybe you have to drill under the bumper.

those overlays on your tail lights are tight... cause you have a white care it stands out... idk how itll look on my black G37x

[sniper27]

here's how they look on black

I had a set of those. Installed the passenger side without a hitch. Got to the drivers side and the backing had gotten too wet and crumbled crud all on them and would not come off so i ended up ripping the good one off. Damn shame.

Personally I'd rather get a solid cover instead of the GT-R versions.

[sniper27]

I had my installed at a shop. It was only $25 for labor, so that was a no brainer. A solid overlay is a little too much for me. Not to mention police here in CA will pull you over for that.

[audtatious]

Yeah, lucky for me I don't have to deal with that here
