Default Bumper w/ Front Air Intake?

Forgive me if I am missing it in the search engine, but where could I find an OEM front bumper with the hole for added air to the intake? Also, is the hole called a front air intake? Any help would be awesome! Thanks!

Just get a pair of tin snips and a screwdriver. You won't even have to pull a drop cord.

The big hole in the front bumper is called the grill.

"The big hole in the front bumper is called the grill."

Wrong. The big hole is just that--a hole. The grill is what goes in it.

OP, I have never seen an OEM bumper with a bulit in air duct. Titek is one of the most popular that I know of. Many of our vendors sell them in the Marketplace. Good luck.

Perfect! That's exactly what I was looking for! I also found the DIY which cleared up quite a bit. I was misinformed by a neighbor who said the Fairlady Z came with the air duct in the stock bumper. After image searching, this didn't seem to be the case (and obviously isn't), which led to my confusion.

Anyway, thanks everyone who contributed!

(Edit: Also, sorry for posting in the wrong forum!)

Yes, Titek CF air duct is the way to go. I've had it on my Z, for almost 3 years now.
