i cant stop anyone from taking pictures of my car, or posting them... in fact, I encourage anyone who took pics of my car to post them.... i have a nice Z, and I want everyone to know..
brad's pics are different... i told brad to post those two pictures, since i didnt want to hold out all pics, and thought it was a nice gesture. obviously, it seems now we should not have posted anything... some people can't seem to appreciate things.
and anyways, do you see the difference in total quality in brad's pics to scott's (i believe) pic?
m
ps: thanks for all the nice comments people... mcduck: painting was about $1300 and included re-spraying the rear bumper and gas cap. this is at the best shop in dallas.

btw, if you are going to use that beautiful car for some professional pics, you might want to use a different background, it takes away from the lines of the car.

you mean Dallas, NC... right? 
Oh well.. that would have been too easy on me... Dallas, NC is about 15 minutes from my home... Dallas, TX... well, that's a much longer trip. I'm sure I can find someone local to do it if I get the kit...
Hope it looks as good on brickyard as it does on Daytona Blue... got my checkbook ready... now I gotta find someone who has the best prices on the Nismo kits. Suggestions anyone????

Man... every time I come back and look at these pics, the more I want the Nismo kit for my Brick!
another pairs of (dumb) questions for sKiDaZZLe or anyone else who has bought the Nismo kit.
I assume that the parts come with mounting diagrams. Are these in Japanese?
Also, piece(s) behind the rear wheels are just bolts ons, correct? They don't look like they replace the entire rear bumper...

they come with instructions in japanese... pretty easy to figure out, though.
the rear pieces are add-ons, they use 1 existing bolt, and you need to drill 2 holes per side (1 hole if you have splashguards already.)

Hey Skidazzle,
I was wondering what window tint you have on there? Also where did you get it done? I'm expecting my Daytona Blue Enthusiast in Late February and will need and want to get it tinted.
Thanks

I like everything on that kit except the wing. I'm not much of a kit fan to begin with, or wing fan for that matter, but I REALLY like that kit. I think it would look KICK *** with the factory spoiler.
Definitely a clean looking ride....nice work, man.

As amazing as the pictures are, they still don't do the car justice. It looked amazing seeing it in person on Sat.
I appreciate the pics posted by Brad. As always, your pics are prime candidates for background, screensavers, etc. The pics I usually take are at the lowest quality settings, due to wanting to save bandwith when posting on my website.

I agree with Josh and the others. Brad's great photos don't fully convey the overall dynamics of Michael's car.
John/Dlovtsur,
The wing looks really tough in person. This is one aspect that none of the photos of any of the cars with the NISMO wing has conveyed. It really adds to the car.
Congrats, Michael....Now we just have to wait for the TT.
