Where is the rear skirt? I like the front and sides a lot.

I would loose the mud flaps for sure, other than that and the rear spoiler I like it.

Do you like it? Cuz that's all that matters anyway.

+1

I would remove the rear splash guards and replace them with rear wings.

Thank you!

I just have an appreciation for a clean sleek look. I have a coupe with the splash guards, and I have a roadster which will soon have the nismo side and rear skirts. I like them both...the way they are and will be. I wouldn't even consider mixing up the two mods. That's just my opinion.

splash guards need to go,with out them the tires look so much wider.
As well i need to know why does this specific type of wing look like it's facing the wrong way!

Turn it around and you have a 100% better looking wing.....

2nd. Those stock splach guards clash with the lines of the rocker panels. Pull'em off. Nice wheels as well. A few too many spokes for my taste, but clean looking, and not ghetto.

Car looks great!

Lose the splash guards the dirt build will start eating away at your paint on the bumper.... How much rain do you all get in San Diego? Rims look good too.

********************************************************

Take a 2nd look at the pic.....The wing IS facing in the correct position. The ends of the spoiler/wing should curve down and toward the car. Though I've seen a gazillion different configurations...some of which are outlandish and downright distasteful.

Personally, this kind of rear spoiler is not for me.....I like a low profile, smaller, LESS of a "look at me I'm a sportscar" type of look for the spoiler.

But, I've seen THIS WING on Z's on the street and actually looks pretty good on other Z's.

The Nismo rear skirts are atrocious. Leave things how they are. Looks good.

Recommendations and opinions are cool but at the end of the day, go with what you genuinely like. That's the most important aspect: impress yourself; life's too short to worry about what everyone else thinks. Would you wear Speedos just because all your co-workers declared them to be hip?

BTW, your vehicle looks sharp, IMO.

thanks to everyone.

funny about the rear flap disagreements. I actually have the nismo rear skirts but have not have them painted yet.

I want to get the nismo sides redone to get a better color match to the car, when I do that I will probably add the rears too.

Also seems like a tinting would be the next mod.

what percentage can I get away with in So-Cal?
