Default HELP! Z Undriveable

OK guys......I need your honest opinion.

I sold my Nismo body kit to switch to a Veilside Vers 3 replica. At the last minute the company I bought the replica from closed and wasnt able to ship me my product.

Now im without a front bumper, skirts, etc. I just bought a GT-R typ wing by the way. What do you guys think I should go with. Im strongly considering a Carbofn FIber kit in either Nismo or the Carbon creations one with the c-west front bumper. What you guys think? Would it look good or not? Here is a pic of the way my car was for your sugegstions. Or should I go back to Nismo in Silverstone but with a JDM front bumper? Help me please. I already placed 2 orders for a kit and both times something happened.

I do have 20s in the rims, which I took a lot of heat for from certain people. I do liek 20s on this TSW on the Z they dont even look like 20s. OR SHOULD I GO BACK TO THE OLD LOOK? Plz be honest no hurt feelings.

Word. If you like it, who cares what everyone else thinks. Besides if you got it to impress everyone else, you got it for the wrong reason

Ok guys here it is. I may be using this bumper in the front and then this wing in the back and the side skirts will be CF as well the nismo CF ones. It looks pretty much done. I may go pick up tomorrow. Or I may use the same Nismo kit as the pic above but instead a JDM replica front bumper.....but then would th enismo kit match this type? of wing? Hmmm..........I think that wing would look better with the first option in CF.

Thanks for your comments. What u think?Oh and a bit of a bigger drop? Aggresive?

I just found that they do the JDM front bumpers in urethane which is good. Hmm something to consider.

you sold your nismo, so why go back to it and lose money. move forward, take this opportunity to try something new. I say go with the cwest carbon fiber kit. Your wheels look good for non volks.
