Yeah I had a billet grill in before I got my bodykit done. I liked it at the time but now you wouldn't pay me money to put it back on. So all in all if the front end = stock then a billet grill is ok in my book.

And mirror tints are just straight up gross looking!
There is a big difference between a GTR and Skyline. A g35 and skyline v35 are the exact same car! So now are you gonna tell the people who put fairlady badges to take em off since its not a Z anymore?

1) Non-painted exterior Carbon Fiber parts - You don't see people sporting non-painted fiberglass exterior parts, do you? Well, ok, you do, but I don't think it's because they believe it looks good.

2) Nissan bagding on a G

3) Black rims w/ silver rivets - even if they're functional (2 or 3 piece wheels) I still don't like the look. {runs into closet to grab flamesuit}

4) The "Stretched Tire" fad that seems to be making its rounds. WTF??? Why would you want a tire that's too narrow stretched out over your wheel like a insert humorous simile here? I just don't get that ****.

^ so then bmw should have painted the roof of the m6... mitsubishi should have painted the wing on the evo?? i could go on but some cars have unpainted cf parts from factory... its all on the person. if its good enough for bmw to leave the whole roof of the m6 in cf then im sure some unpainted cf on a Z is ok.....

Two benefits from installing carbon fiber on any vehicle:

1} To allow heat to escape in a faster manner compared to other materials.

2}To reduce the overall weight of the vehicle!

How the **** is paint over carbon fiber, going to benefit your vehicle; with performance in mind?

Peace!

1. chrome rims.. ( especialy with the blue and orange(kind of) 350z)

2. drop tops! i think the z is one of the best lookin cars , but for some reason the convertable z looks so ****in bad, it irritates me seeing them around town, im not at all a convertable fan, but the z wears that **** the bad .. sadly one of my buddies got one

3. one covered in race stickers, it looks so ****in dumb, the z's not an 88 honda accord, it makes the z look so cheap

and the reason i chose those three, i actually saw one adsactly like that this week(it was blue) i wanted to take a picture it was that bad

My Michelin PS2's fit like this on the rear of my GT stock rims. They're the same size as the stock tires, but stretch a bit for some reason. It's not enough so that going to a wider tire would fix, however. The front tires fit normally, which makes it a bit irritating.

I could count milliseconds between the times that I read something dumb on this forum, but it's pointless. I'd need to write a program to count them all.
