Default Any suggestions on my Z?

Wanted to share my 350Z and ask the community what they thought, get some feedback. I just built this car so would love some ideas or suggestions.

Here is a youtube video I made I also posted some photos in the gallary.

Everyone has particular tastes in what they want their car to look like.
No matter what is that taste,IMO I think its great to find a central theme or color and carry it through.Your Z's color is not something I would choose.As I have commented before,the great design of the 350Z does not need a wild color to showcase the lines of the body.In fact(again,in my opinion)has a negative effect.
Not a fan of the "Z" tailights either.
Bottom line,its your car,your vision.
Thats all that really matters.

Is that dark tint--especially on the windshield,legal in your state?

nearly every modification you chose to do are not popular items for the car, or the board of forum members. Its like a flashback to 2003 when they mave have been considered popular. .but the market has matured and the available parts have grown, as have the definitive looks campains attainable for the car. This ones kind of all over the place. And thats fine of course.. but as you read around here, you will certainly see a huge distinction between what you built and what is generlaly deemed as generally acceptable to the rest of the enthusiasts.

Wheel choice, lamborghini doors. etc.

A valiant effort, and its your car so if you like it, thats all that matters, but in terms of imminenet flaming, you did post it here, and you did start by asking the forum community for opinions, youre going to be told to sell it and start over, and most will do it in a fairly rude way.. but its our house, so we're kind of allowed to lol. Dont get mad.. its tuff love.



Im not banging ya, just being honest.

Thanks! Negative comments will not bother me, Its what I wanted so I am happy with it. I am open to suggestions or even flaming. Its very flashy, and yea the lambo doors even on my part are well maby that was too much. The wheels are a little big 20" but not chrome just aluminum.

Its your ride - your taste. Unfortunately, not the taste of many on this forum. In the grand scheme of things, as long as your happy and proud of it, thats all that matters. It sure is green..........
