I've found 2bolt flange 3" diameter 1/2" spacers online. I'd really like a 1-2" though. Also my rear section is a slip over style connection. I was thinking I could maybe extend it out a little that way..prolly wouldn't be anything for a machine shop to make a couple of widened flanges to space it out though.

They are rubber so there is a little play, plus I was already looking at one and it was kinda pulling to the front of the car. After the adjustment it should hang straight down or a little to the back. My back bumper is so ate up around the tomei it's not funny. I actually started to look for another oem.

The v2 def has more air flow through the intercooler. This new bumper is a bit smaller it seems. I don't track my car so I'm not to worried. I am keeping the v2 after I get it fixed. The inlet on this new bumper bumps right up against the intercooler, doesn't really give any room to go around, under, or above. Makes the air go directly through the cooler. So in that fact, that may be a bit better for cooling.
Wow, your Z sure has come a long way! Good to see your Z looking better each step of the way.
