Front Bash Bar Development

I have been reaching out to companies to develop certain items for our platform and a front bash bar is something that Street Faction stated they can do for us. They need to get some interest to design and produce it and if all goes well this thread will go from an interest gauge to a group buy.

Street Faction produces a front bash bar with different options to include a jack point, tow hook area, and bumper support. It protects the VQ heart of our rides!

Here's a good example of what they can produce


These are great if you want some more core protection or need something up front after going force induction.

Post up if you are interested and what options you would like to see. I will add you to the list.

I would be down with all options if it fit right and allowed the same space up front. Im guessing similar pricing to whats on their site, which seems fair. Put me down for one.

Yeah, they will develop it so it should fit perfect, their chassis mount wings are nice so this would be too. Pricing should be about the same which isn't too much to get some protection and added goodies.

Anyone? Pretty cheap bolt on front bash bars. Great for drift/track/or protection from road hazards.

This should work for all trims and years for the g37, correct? I know there are only a few of us that track our cars, but I was hoping we would hit the desired five. Follow-up question: If they do the lower jack point do you know if we would have to modify our lower splash shield? I mean, I imagine we would, just trying to plan on cutting the metal shield I just got, lol.

I would have to check, but I think the front bash bars are the same across years. The lower jack point extends down a good amount so yeah the splash shield would need to be modified. Hopefully more people show some interest.

They may, but pricing would be higher most likely. I may reach out on FB and see if I can get more interest built.

Still no luck drawing up interest. I'm hoping street faction just makes one for us on their own.

I emailed them inquiring if they might, here's their response:

Hi Jarrett, we currently do not make a front bash bar and haven't had a high demand to make products for that car. Due to our busy schedule, we won't be taking on new product requests unless a deposit is made for at least 4 orders for this product. Please let me know if you can gather enough interest to make this happen! We do make a rear bash bar for the G37, let me know if you have any other questions! Thank you.
