Hi Infiniti fans,

I am from Germany and new to this forum and the world of Infiniti. My 2014 graphit shadow QX70 will arrive in about two weeks, and i was looking for some additional stuff. I saw the thread about the 2012 graphit shadow FX and the OEM Aero kit. This is excatly what I am looking for. In Germany they don't sell it, they even don't have any information (our Infinit community is pretty small). Will this one fit to a 2014 QX70? What is the average price for the kit, and where can i order it (shipping to Germany)? Sorry, i have not 10 postis yet, so i can't direct link to the thread, but it is on the front page. And sorry for my bad english :-).

Andor
 
Thank you very much. That sounds great, will ask for shipping costs. Do you know which color i should choose for the original graphite shadow? I have heard that Nissan/Ininiti uses a special anti scratch paint, does the bodykit painting supports this feature?
 
I don't see your color code (I think yours should be KAD) on that site. The scratch shield paint was only offered by Infiniti on the 2009 FX.
 
I searched at google, at it seems that the graphite shadow is not offered, because they didn't have official "fx facelift or QX" versions? Anyways, i wait until the dealer gives me feedback. Thx for the help.
 
The dealer does not offer to offer unpaited parts :-(. Any alternative dealer?

Do i need both parts: "Side Sill Protector" and "Door Under Molding"? I would like to stay with the original side chrom bar.
 
interesting post - i'm considering ordering the same for my qx70 here in the UK, fortunately i'm malbec black so I can get it pre painted... i'm curious as to what your shipping quote will be!

that followed by an AHG titanium DPF-Back exhaust and tuning box would complete me... oh and maybe some OEM 21" darkened rims... oh and maybe carbon dip the slats of the grille... oh dear where does it stop.
 
I have found a chinese manufacturer, claiming that his company produces this kit for Infiniti. They would sell for 350 US Dollar unpainted. But i am unsure if this is a good idea.

That is really cheap, I guarantee it would not be the quality and fit of the OEM aero kit. Yje OEM kit is easy to install and no adjustment or fitting is necessary.
On the other hand, if you do buy the cheap kit and it is no good, you would not lose that much.

would always be OEM for me. IMHO I think the full kit is pretty cheap, especially compared with what other manufacturers would charge for something similar.

Darren, your FX must really stand out in England. My daughter lived in Chelsea, now Cambridge and we visit once a year and I have never seen an FX on the street over there. Post pics when you get enough posts.

Yes you need both for it to work. You can't have one without the other. The aero under door moldings do come with a thicker chrome strip.

unfortunately infiniti of troy wont ship the kit outside of the US. Andor - have you found a supplier willing to ship the kit?

@ all, any other suppliers in the US you could recommend?

I too have bought my infiniti new and would be concerned of the quality of the Chinese kit fitting badly and making my car look crap, is the kit PU or Fibreglass? if fibre [fiber] it would certainly be a no go for me.

@ gee.. Thanks! I will post pics when I get the chance and the post count! the infiniti fx/qx does look quite special here, quite imposing and a change from the usual evoques, RRs and Cayennes which seem to be everywhere. I find mostly Evoque owners tend to take a long hard look trying to figure out what it is... Porsche owners tend to turn their noses up lol sometimes cars primarily intended for the US just look weird here - an extreme example being the hummer, but the qx looks big without actually being that big.
 
Nope, i haven' t found one yet. I have to make the decision on the Infiniti QX or FX anyways first. Will start a new thread to discuss my options.
 
Well, it will be a graphit shadow QX70. Now i need a dealer who is willing to ship to GermanyGermany, maybe someone working at a shop offering the kit?
