sorry I didn't elaborate a bit more but I think
bmccann, jcity, boomer, terrasmak pretty much covered all points.
only thing I think wasnt mentioned is the green can work, just really think the oem brembo color doesnt compliment it.

Doesn't this belong in the "why 17 year olds shouldn't drive Zs" thread? lol.

Bro, this doesn't look good at all. I think you could make the color work with the right setup, but you don't have it. The rims are awful, the headlights look cheap as do the tails. I would take your factory wheels, paint them black, throw those on. Put your factory tails back on as well.The headlights can prob stay.. but save up and get some +06 headlights painted with the black housing. Your car will only impress high school kids. Anything beyond that, will be hard to be taken seriously.

I know a lot of people on here are doing their best to be political, but I believe cold honest opinions are more effective.

Whats funny I had the +06 Headlights with black housing and HID but changed them out for these, lol. I agree with the B-piller being green its a little much was thinking of painting it back black, it was never supposed to be green in the first place the body shop did that without consulting me. As far as the rims I am NOT a fan of black rims, So black is out of the question. I actually like the rims over the factory track wheels, and I hate chrome so they were what I was looking for aluminum 20" staggered wheels. Oh and yea not 17 I have over $10,000 invested in modifications alone!

Nice car by all means... the only cons I will point out:
Those tail lights scream RICE.
That spoiler screams RICE.
I'm not even saying those things to be a troll, they honestly look terrible.

Get rid of that rear wiper. Youll be surprised how cleaner it looks afterwards. And the wheels... not the biggest fan of them.

i think it looks nice, you put some work into it, im a OEM kind of person
would suggest what others have of changing both headlights/taillights to 06+ OEM parts
loose all the tint, even the rear blinkers, things would look very nice with all the lights turned back to stock

I like the color! imo Z's can pull off colors that most cars can't so why not!?

I love the tail lights with the Z's.

Gotta polish the plenum!
