Default CF duct on V2 bumper?

Can the Varis CF duct be installed on the V2 bumper? I have the duct on my stock bumper right now, but will be getting a V2 bumper eventually, can the duct be installed? When I installed it on the OEM bumper, I noticed that the duct doesn't not sit perfectly flat on the bumper, and does flex a bit once the screws are tight on the bumper, but the V2 has a lot more curve compared to the OEM, will the duct flex that much?

I thought the V2 came with one that went to the top of the driver side of the grill in the bumper?

Here's a pic of "THE TECH's" car taken at a local meet.



No offense but I think you need to take your car back to the body shop and have the emblem area worked on some more.

Techs car is a magical car. It is one of the best looking z's out there.

And about my bumper, the first V2 bumper I had was flawless. I took the car to a tire shop and the guy rammed it into the hydralic lifts and cracked the bumper. I got a replacement bumper and paint covered by the tire shop but the body shop that did the work was not my choice. They didn't do a great job on the bumper. Either way the car is gone and it'll be missed.

The vents really look good on the V2's guys. Always try new things.
