We know the specs, we've seen the pics BUT

Anyone has any idea what this thing IS or DOES?

You can't possibly be THAT stupid can you? I already answered your question here: https://my350z.com/forum/2009-370z/3...15-08-a-7.html

I see Nissan is once again resorting to their obnoxiously cheap and absurd cost cutting measures again by not altering the rear bumper to remove the rear fog housing on US and JDM spec models.



370Z Euro model with the rear fog light in place.




R35 GT-R with rear fog in place.




Would it reeeeeally have been THAT hard for them to smooth out the rear bumper for the US and JDM models? Either that or at least offer a body colored piece to fill the hole...or just simply leave the red lense there and disconnect the light, although I do seem to recall a certain group of MINI Cooper owners getting pissy when BMW simply disconnected the rear fog on first year MINIs instead of removing the light altogether. They made a big stink about not being able to use a light they have no use for in the first place.


Wake up donkey.

It will be cool to see how people customize this part; back up light, brake light, fog light, back up camera, orange hazard light, or my personal choice - Upskirt Camera.
