Sorry about that richie. If you want, take a look @ the Zele Rear bumper and under spoiler. See if that's something you like. As far as more G37 Exterior bits, now that the 370Z has come out, you will see more stuff come out for the G37. When the 350Z first dropped, it came out first then the G35 Coupe if I'm not mistaken, so parts were more available for the G35 Coupe right away. But since the G37 Coupe came out first, a couple of great JDM companies going down and the economy in general, we haven't seen the rush of great products we saw with the G37.

I've seen those lips a while ago and it has been discussed over at G35Driver for quite sometime. I believe it was RobbyG35 who brought this to our attention...
I also believe the price for those were quite high and was outta reach for most of us here in the states...
It'd be nice if we can get some competitive price for those soon...., but I doubt anything bulletproof sells will that much cheaper.

P.S. I'm looking into potentially sponsoring the site. You all deserve the attention and I'll make sure to do that.

Yea the 370Z and G37 Sedan came out after us and they've already got more parts than us! Talk about being the red headed step child!
I'm still waiting on a carbon fiber rear valence like the ones for the G35.

As far as carbon valances and diffusers, I've talked to a couple of guys over in Japan late yesterday afternoon and it boils down to this:
#1. People in Japan are scared to make parts for the G37. Look what happened with the Top Secret front lip. The fact that it fell through and the fact that it's already been knocked off for urethane kits has made most of the top tuners in Japan hesitant to make anything for the U.S. In all honesty, for now, Zele has the best kit for us. Top Secret Japan will only sell it in Japan and we won't touch it till maybe July-August just so that the whole controversy boils over. Their Carbon Fiber hood is by far one of the best carbon fiber parts for the G37. The weight savings are there. A high quality carbon fiber part is suppose to be not only lighter but stronger then OEM parts. I've seen in the past where lesser quality carbon fiber hoods weigh MORE then the hood you're replacing it with. And then you have crazy fitment issues like say a 4inch gap when the hood is closed relative to your grille and/or headlights. And that shouldn't be the case. Enough of me ranting, on to the pics. Bear in mind, All of the parts on the Top Secret G37 (front lip, rear bumper, spoiler, side skirt, spoiler) are also available in Japan in Carbon fiber. Problem is, They have no intention of selling it in the U.S.

Well, I like the hood because it's aggressive and as you can see, the fitment is spot on. The spoiler is clearly the best option out there. It looks better then the Zele and Impul spoilers that they have out. It's aggressive without looking ricer. That's why I like it. in the end, it's all a matter of opinion.

That's good stuff right there! How long have cheap knock off's been going on now? And where do they usually come from?
