body kits
hey guys
im thinking body kits
since most are only front lips ...
im really liking the nismo front lip
the greddy one is hot
but it looks tacky how it is just an add on
the nismo one seems to flow better
not that i care what anyone else thinks.... but
my thoughts atm are
nismo front lip
greddy side skirts
no rear wing
stock rear bumper atm.... the nismo pods are ugly imo
and greddy again is just a tacky add on
mixing body kits could be seen as a bit stupid
but i think i have vaild reasons for it and i think they would look fine together ..
any thoughts ?? opinions ....
no offence will be taken for the thought of mixing body kits

Its always going to be a bit of a risk. I agree with you choice of body parts (side skirts & front lip).
How do you know if they both come down to the same height? One could be alot lower and that would look wrong.
I wouldnt risk it based on this, id just find a front lip and side skirts that go together that I was happy with. There are alot our there and the list keeps on getting bigger.

hmmm
i would like a full kit, not just the lips
but there are a lot more expencive, and i dont want that at this point in time.. so the lips are my option for this week
untill i change my mind again
i like this pic.. i wouldnt get the grille though, as i have my grille tech, and i dont really like that nismo thing they have
they height yeah could be an issue... but then again you would think they wouldnt be too much differance ... maybe just mm out ?
but definatly something to consider ...

Nice photo, see how they waited till sunrise/sunset to take the photo. Sunrise or sunset are the best time to photograph a car. There is no harsh sunlight directly hitting the car, no harsh shadows or reflections etc, it makes the car look very smooth and makes for a professional looking photograph.

far out thats cheep
does anyone care if its a copy ??
as long as it seems good quality eh .....
250 is a bit steep
as long as its well packed... then again it needs to hit the panel shop before fitting so a few minor bumps wouldnt matter
but that wont happen if its packed properly
if that is with the rear wing that is great...
imo im not a fan of the rear pods too mr rizk, weird
if i get the nismo kit it will be without wing and rear pods
hey zuffy was that the spolier shop who quoted you ??

Carmate has imitation Nismo kits for the 350Z.
I asked about the rear wing and it was $380. Since I just replaced my front bumper (and have 2 spare bumpers in the shed), I don't want to spend money on another one....although I do like the Nismo kit a lot.
