To line up with the theme. I left the under side of the wing/mirror/side skirts, roof, headlight surround, front bumper vents, rear bumper bottom/license plate/turn signal exposed.

Unbelievably awesome job on the car. That two-tone job is gorgeous, I love the flow with leaving the underside of the components black especially on the wing, looks fantastic.

imho, with the rear, i think you should do the entire rear in white, the carbon heat shield for the exhaust tips and the diffuser is enough contrast.. the black line the flap causes breaks up and its hard to see the carbon shields...

Looks really good John

How many hours do you estimate it took total to finish the Z?

Thanks gents.

Chebosto: I'm wrapping the bottom of the rear diffuser in white. I don't mind the carbon not showing, I have little to no carbon on the car. I'm also thinking of changing out the vortex generators to G35 coupe rear mud guards and wrapping them in white.

Waizzz: It took me 40+ hours to do the entire car. Each panel took on average 4 hours. See you at the next meet.

yea i went to one like back in July, and i went to the FRS/BRZ one in torrance last month.. but the next Z one is on 3/2? probably can't make that one i have a friend's daughter's 1st bday to attend.. ever since having kids the Z is kinda a garage space queen. :P.. but i'll try to make it out to the April one maybe. i'd like to meet up! see the wrap in person so you can convince me to do it to my s13. hehe. i really think you did a great job.
