Default Stillen license plate relocation kit

Does anyone have the Stillen license plate relocation kit?

http://www.stillen.com/product_detail.aspx?sku=105350


Just wondering how far it makes your license plate stick out from the bumper.

I didn't know it was only made by stillen. I know I saw it on the performance nissan site one time, it went on the bumper support.

I saw the same front plate adapter used on a pic of a JDM s-tune 350z with the V2.

from what i understand the v2 is like 2inches longer than the stock bumper, so that would mean they would have to add 2inches to the bracket of the stillen one to clear the v2.... or they have one made for the v2. dunno... just throwin that out there

If you actually look at the V2 bumper, the bottom is longer than the top. Which means the 2inches that is measured is measured at the bottom and not towards the top where the support is positioned.

I think this license plate adapter is the one they used on the RS Concept.

yeah, but the actual metal peice that you screw the bracket INTO, is still in the same position as it would be on the stock bumper. that stillen peice goes into part of the cars core support, not the actual bumper... it screws right into where the tow hook goes.

I think thats where the RS concept is attached to, because it does not have mounting holes on the bumper itself. Plus the V2 has a opening for the tow hook.

It depends on what state you live in.
