tint was 20%...I wanted to go 5% but the rear view in the Z is lacking already...

how much was the install of what? The tint ran me $100 Canadian dollars cuz I knew the owner. All the mods I installed myself in my garage.

Thanks for the compliment man!

Nice looking Z man. What size wheels do you have on? They look like 18's. If so, can I ask why you stuck with that size instead of getting 19's? I'm thinking of getting wheels soon. Congrats again.

great job alex. seeing your car makes me miss my old setup. so jealous. i think my wing will look sick on the car. even the cwest will be fine on the car bro. another thing you can do is have new stands machined so it can be lower then have it powder coated black. if you need measureent of my wing or a template fax to you of my stands let me know. you still have my cell #.

Very nice! Heavily modded yet still clean - the way I like it. If I remember correctly you were the guy who posted something like "2 weeks until i get my Z" and had a TON of mods just waiting for it. I replied briefly saying I'll be gettin mine soon as well.

Man, you work fast if you're that same guy! I just got mine last weekend but still need to give her the first coat of Zaino and snap some snazzy pics..then I'll post. But it's no comp for your ride. Good job.

They are 19s...19x8.5f and 19x9.5r.......they just get eaten up in the huge wheelwell tho. And having a lip makes them look a bit smaller. But trust me, they are HUGE.

oops sorry I missed your post. Yea I'm the same guy. Been ordering parts for 9 months before I got my Z...haha.

Thanks for the compliments! I'm sure your Z will turn out to be a sexy ride as well! IMO, with the Z, no matter what you do to it, as long as you keep a theme or stay with simplicity, it will always look good, so you have nothing to worry about! Good luck with your Z bro!
