You need to form a template out of blue painter's tape first of all. Locate where you want the ram air duct to be positioned. Be careful to place the tape down evenly and level before you cut into your bumper. Acquire a dremel tool as it will speed up the cutting process. I used a tungsten carbide cutting bit to cut the hole in the bumper. Slowly cut along the edge of the tape and follow it like a stencil.
Make sure that the duct fits in the hole. if not, keep trimming until it does.
I used stainless bolts and nuts to fasten the duct to the bumper.
If you have any questions, please ask have fun

I used the 350z duct btw

sorry to go off thread but.... fluidmotorsports do you have any pics of the Carbon Fiber Ram Air Duct and the Carbon Fiber Rear Lip installed?? thanks.

 

^Search deedub he had it on his 8.

 

search my latest photoshoot.

I have the duct.

 

dont know why big pics wont post but i put up 3 links of it on my new car

 

did you align it correctly? I'm trying to picture the engine bay now and I feel like the stock duct location is a bit more to the driver's side

 

yea my duct kind of curves a little bit and it is directed right thru the hole...my first duct went straight but 2nd one i bought was a little different

 

OMG, the return of deedub in silver!

 

offtopic question:
is that a second lip under your appearance package lip?

 

You should check out deedub's ride, he molded his lip to the bumper. Let me look for a pic.
