thank you for doing God's work, sir! I took interest in this car from seeing a picture of a 350z with a similar lip but have never been able to find it. I spread the word a bit so hopefully we can get this thing rolling !

appreciated!!!

well , I invite APT into this thread to comment on how many ( I Will Buy It ) do they want, so they can pull the trigger on the project .

I think they will sell a significant amount of these lips in all honesty.

Hope something comes of this before mid-January as that is pretty much my cutoff date on purchasing a new front to prep for shows in 2017 even if there is word that the ball is rolling by then I would probably hold off a little and do without new front for first quarter.

I don't see this going too far to be honest. The amount of work required to produce this when APT already produces the N3R bumper (which is the lip everyone wants) just doesn't seem worth it. Don't get me wrong, it would be a very in-demand lip. But if you look at it from the company's perspective, it doesn't make a ton of sense. We'll see

It would be great for APT to chime in and say if they will , or will make this.

And or how many ( I Want To Buy's ) they need to see to green light this.

thank you

I appreciate your thoughts .

My comments came after talking with him on Facebook. I think he would need to see a huge demand for them to warrant his time. I could post the render onto the Facebook pages to see what the interest is there. Much larger community, although not as committed as the individuals here.

Yeah, I get all your points. Its hard to gauge the interest though as I feel its only by chance that someone might come across this thread that would be potential buyer for it. As well as by chance they see it on other social media platforms as well. I only caught it here as I was casually browsing for a good deal on a Nismo V3 front. "V3" in title click baited me. I will post on IG as well to direct people here.

Hi All,

Sorry for the delay in input, the holiday season has us going crazy.

CJM is right though, i would need to see huge demand (20+) to make something like this, and then the problem becomes, do I make it for the 03-05 or 06+?

our concern is the price point that you would want this at. We'd have to make this around the 289-339 shipped range to make sense, and for 150 more you could just buy a replacement bumper from us.

Interest over on the 350z page was high. Many liked the render. Only criticisms/comments were thoughts that it may look strange from the side profile (sticking out too far) and wanted to see more angles. However, price point was not discussed with them since I did not know at the time. All in all, nearly 300 likes and 40 comments of interest in a purchase shows strong possible demand.
