...and I think it might look a lot better when matched with the same color hood, preferably one without the bulge.

Bad PS, but no splitter, no bulge.

i think the front bumper w/o the splitter would look good if you were not going to add aftermarket sides or rear since you would be retaining factory bumper height off the ground. but if you do have aftermarket sides or plan to get them the splitter will make the bumper closer to the ground to even out the longer side height and/or rear bumper..........
i like the splitter but not those metal things that attach between the splitter & the bumper....
this bumper has grown on me alot since this thread started, i really like it now!
lastly by the looks of the stillen pics the splitter is part of the bumper, unfortunate for some & not so unfortunate for others........

According to Stillen, the splitter is not part of the bumper. It's an options that's sold separately.

Wow, actually looks nice! I think the splitter looks great with this bumper, as long as it can be installed securely without needing those "straps".

Again, I am not a big fan of body mods -- but the Stillen body changes are simply excellent, IMO. I also like the front spoiler splitter -- very different and nice.

My favorite total body changes to date are..

1/ this Stillen (including the hood with a SC) - no grill needed
2/ NISMO and a close 3rd...
3/ Tommy Kaira

does anyone now how far the nose hangs down over stock. Or what it looks like without side pieces. I thought it might look good with veil side v1 sides left in carbon fiber to match the splitter if you can get them that way.

I first saw this kit on Redline TV. They had a nice, but brief interview with Steve Millen. It was great, because following his latest SC 350Z was the Greddy 350Z TT. Anyway, I thought both cars were awesome, but the clips were too brief for a Z owner. Teasers. Thanks for the stills... gives me plenty of time to linger over the lines. I'm iffy now, but I bet ChinaClipper is right about it looking better in person.

I have yet to see any mods on a Z here in Las Vegas, except for a few grotesque sets of chrome wheels. Well, last night, I saw a Silverstone with the new Stillen nose. No other body mods, just the nose. It was parked, so I got a chance to really check it out. My opinion? Mine in is on the way (no splitter, thank you)....and this is coming from someone who detests body mods.

It's aggressive, and really looks better than the original. I'd say it's about an inch longer, but seemed to be the same height from the ground as the rest of the body, so it stands well on it's own without the rest of the kit.

ZZ ... congratulations !

Looking forward to seeing pics of the Stillen nose on your PPW - particularly since that will be the only body mod.

Really interested in seeing how the profile line flows .. from the nose to the back.

I just fond this Pic of a G35, It looka allot like the new Stillen Z front end BUT with a molded on Lip. I think this is perfect, just what i want. I really like the Stillen Front end but not the lip. I think i need a lip to match the rest of my Body kit. What do you guys think, is this sold, or would i have to have it custom made?

I have always loved the Top Secret G35 front bumper and the wide body 350z.

Chazzg, you may want to look at the Kei Office kit.
