Urethane

You may often hear how STILLEN® Products are designed, engineered and manufactured in Costa Mesa, California.  In this video, we are going to show you what that looks like by following the production of our polyurethane styling products.

STILLEN Polyurethane Body Styling

All of STILLEN’s designs are originated in-house and put into physical form by our craftsman in our modeling shop. First Articles are carefully scrutinized by the entire STILLEN staff before the final design goes into production.

STILLEN Polyurethane Body Styling

STILLEN has perfected their proprietary blend of polyurethane. The material has an excellent balance between rigidity and flexibility. This prevents the cracking or breaking often seen with fiberglass or Carbon Fiber materials. STILLEN’s Polyurethane products can be ordered in a raw finish; for easy prep and body matching color, or be ordered in a factory quality matte black finish.

STILLEN Body Styling Polyurethane

STILLEN Body Styling is designed to have an excellent fit that is designed for your specific vehicle ensuring a trouble free; simple installation.  Every STILLEN product is test fit in our R&D facility to ensure proper fitment before going into production.

When you choose STILLEN Body Styling Products, you are choosing a premium USA Designed, Engineered and Manufactured Product.

Front Lip Spoiler:

Enhancing the aerodynamic performance of such a finely tuned car like the GT-R is no small feat.  When developing the car Nissan did a great job of developing an aero package that works well, but left some room for improvement for the true enthusiast.  One of the most common complaints of GT-R owners is the car has a tendency to “push” when exercised hard on a race course (understeer).  Two ways to fix this condition are through the suspension, or increasing downforce via aerodynamics of the car at higher speeds.  Increasing the aerodynamic downforce keeps the front end of the car planted and therefore improving front grip, reducing the “push” effect.


The STILLEN Urethane Lip Spoiler adds 2″ of length to the OEM fascia, and installs directly onto the vehicle over the factory piece. This lip spoiler is designed to hold additional air onto the nose, with flares on the side corners producing a canard effect for extra control.


Another major benefit of the front lip spoiler is the durability.  Constructed out of high-quality polyurethane, this front spoiler is nearly indestructible and carries a limited lifetime warranty. This means it can stand up to the hazards of the race track or the drive around town with 100% driver/owner confidence.
Also available: 2012-15 STILLEN Nissan GT-R Front Splitter


Side Skirts:

Continuing the aerodynamic stabilization of the GT-R, STILLEN has developed new 2009-15 Nissan GT-R side skirts with a 2 inch ledge built in to apply more downforce to the car.  This design comes from the testing performed on the legendary IMSA Nissan 300ZX, campaigned in the IMSA sports car series at Le Mans, Daytona, and Sebring.  Tested in the Lockheed Martin wind tunnel, the Nissan engineers found that by enhancing the side ledge on the rocker it applied a incremental amount of downforce at higher speeds thus keeping the car planted and more stable through high speed corners.


Another major benefit of the rockers is the greatly improved appearance.  Offering a much more aggressive look and race proven engineering these rockers are sure to catch attention and compliments.

Just like all STILLEN body work these are manufactured in durable polyurethane, ready for paint, and offer a limited lifetime warranty.  Perfect for daily driving or track days and utilize the factory skirt mounting points to ensure a perfect fit and finish.

STILLEN Dealer Profile: Infiniti Melbourne x STILLEN Q60 Red Sport

Infiniti Melbourne x STILLEN Q60 Red Sport 20170715_145747

The twin-turbocharged Infiniti Q60 Red Sport has been gaining traction with the aftermarket as development progresses on this exciting new luxury coupe. This is evident to us here at STILLEN, as we get feedback from our vast network of partner dealerships. One such dealership, Infiniti of Melbourne in Melbourne, Florida, has seen an increase in the sales of the Q60 as its popularity surges, and reached out to us to collaborate to create this Melbourne x STILLEN Infiniti Q60 Red Sport.

STILLEN Unpainted Front Bumper Splitter for 2017 Infiniti Q60 [V36]

Every enthusiast knows, a car that stands out from the crowd is the car that’s going to capture your attention. When you think about why we modify our vehicles, one of the biggest reasons we do it is to look good. Melbourne Infiniti is well aware of this, and so fitting one of the Q60’s in their showroom with STILLEN Unpainted Front Bumper Splitter for 2017 Infiniti Q60 [V36] was a no-brainer.

Infiniti Melbourne x STILLEN Q60 Red Sport 20170715_145744

Body Styling and Lowering are on the Rise

It’s an unspoken rule among auto enthusiasts that every car looks better with a set of gorgeous wheels and lowered suspension. Therefore, it’s not surprising that with this rise in sales, there is a corresponding increase in aftermarket upgrades purchased. To give this car that oh-so-desirable lowered stance, a set of RS-R Lowering Springs for 2009+ Infiniti Q60 were fitted, offering a 1.2in drop up front and a 1.0in drop at the rear for a sleek yet understated look. A slick set of semigloss black Vossen Wheels completes the aesthetic.

We spoke to Infiniti of Melbourne’s Parts Department manager, Luke Degraff, who shared some of his observations.

“The increased sales of the Q60 coupe, along with its sedan sibling, the Q50, have led to an increase in aftermarket parts sales, especially the STILLEN Unpainted Front Bumper Splitter for 2017 Infiniti Q60 [V36] and the STILLEN Rear Valance Diffuser for 2014-2017 Infiniti Q50 [V36]. A good number of customers have also chosen to lower their new Q50 or Q60 with a set of RS-R Lowering Springs for 2009+ Infiniti Q60 [V36] RWD (N120D). We chose Vossen Wheels to complete the showroom model. The presentation has been very well received!”

Infiniti Melbourne x STILLEN Q60 Red Sport 20170722_220700

The STILLEN equipped Q60 was a hit at Infiniti of Melbourne’s Cars and Coffee event this past Saturday, July 22.

Infiniti of Melbourne also regularly hosts a Cars and Coffee event at the dealership. During their July 2017 event, the STILLEN/RS-R/Vossen equipped Q60 certainly drew plenty of attention from visitors checking out the vehicles on display.

STILLEN Dealer Profile: Holman Infiniti X STILLEN Q50S AWD

IMG_6747

 

The Holman Group is at it again! Knowing what the customer wants and working with the right companies to showcase what can be done is what Holman Infiniti does well. Kevin Shaw in the Parts Department looked at the Iridium Blue Q50S V37 AWD that was sitting on the showroom floor and saw the opportunity to do something eye catching.

IMG_6746

IMG_6751

The amber turn signals really stand out against the red lenses.

Holman Infiniti has used STILLEN products on several of its previous showroom queens, making the body styling decisions for this Q50S quite easy. Kevin started with a Sport Front Bumper Splitter (KB11225), and Rear Valance Diffuser (KB11222MB) followed by an Infiniti Sport Exhaust. Then, to make it really stand out from the rest, he ordered up and installed the first known set of JDM Q50 taillights in the USA. The dark red lenses with the amber turn signals stand out from the typical USDM Q50 variants.

The following images show the difference between the USDM factory taillights (bright red plastic with red turn signal) versus the JDM taillights (darker red plastic with amber turn signal).

The US Domestic Market (USDM) Q50 V37 taillights are red on red, including the turn signal.

The Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) Q50 taillights feature an amber colored turn signal.

It’s bound to happen, you pull into that parking stall in a hurry, clipping the parking block and hearing that dreaded grinding noise.. Or seeing that impossibly sharp driveway, gripping the wheel tighter as you slowly creep over it, hoping the front won’t get damaged too much as you hear the scraping happening and you’ve already committed..

STILLEN has developed a protective skid plate made from urethane to combat this exact problem.  This piece is designed to conform to the bottom side of the front fascia, and protect against scraping and bumps.  It’s designed to be sacrificial, and made from durable urethane that can stand the abuse, leaving your factory bumper free from mishaps.

This item is very easily installed, and can be done quickly at a shop, as well as in your driveway with minimal effort.  Everything needed to install is included in the kit, and provides full coverage across the bottom of the front fascia.  These are available and shipping now, pricing and ordering information available on the STILLEN website.

A little while back we had a chance to meet up with Matt Farah and his awesome crew from TheSmokingTire.com and show them around the buildings here at STILLEN.

Matt and Steve then jumped in the bright orange STILLEN GT-R and took a run through some of the local canyons.  See below for the video!

Matt started The Smoking Tire video series last year, and previous to that was the driving force behind Garage419.
