Can you give me shipping cost to H4M-2Y7 (canada). Add me to the list for the full kit, and what is the best way for me to put down the deposit? also do i get a huge discount for the first Canadien buyer?

Here ya go:

The actual unit can be bought from www.splparts.com go to Fairlady 350z > Exterior > Aero

I called them and it's listed for $500, trim to fit, but I talked with the guy and he said he could do $425 shipped which is still too ridiculously expensive

i think he's saying you get the big square of carbon and you trim it to fit the front bumper. complete waste of money IMO

That's the problem, it's not even carbon fiber! It's "Fiber Reinforced Plastic" and you need to cut it out yourself which is super ghetto. I suppose different people like different lengths? Who knows, but can you guys make a CF version? I'd definitely be interested.

Now that I think about it, I dont even think the picture above is of the Do-Luck, it's the APR Carbon Fiber Wind Splitter sold at Intense for $250, I didnt even know this would fit, but the logos seem to match, take a careful look and tell me what you guys think: http://www.intensepower.com/aprcafiwispw.html

Just to clear up things. The picture of the car at the top is Ron's. That's the APR diffuser, that was especially made by APR for the Do-Luck kit. I have one sitting here waiting on my kit. You can get this by calling Intense and speaking with Darren. This isn't a stock item and is made by APR on a "case by case" basis.

The diffuser abui01 posted is more on the "underneath" of the car and isn't visible from looking from above.

Hope that helps.

The Do-Luck official diffusor is actually suppose to look like Ron's APR diffusor pictured above. Even though I don't have the diffusor in hand, I know this piece is meant to be visible like Ron's because of 1 key element: the grooves! If you look underneath a Do-Luck front bumper, it isn't totally smooth/flat where any ole straight piece of CF can be applied there, there are grooves and bumps that can be filled in by that specific diffusor. I'll go under my car and snap you guys a few pics to let you visualize what I'm talking about when I get off work.
