Talking Is the Z too "happy"?

The front end of the Z is a little too happy, is there any way to make it look meaner?



I hate the new 5 series, but that front end does look pretty agressive

Dude, the Z is agressive looking in it's own way. As for the question, i'm sure a bodykit would do wonders. There are bodykits out there that are subtle, and not loud and drastic. I couldn't point you to them, cause i personally like the front.

You should have gotten the SB...it looks absolutely sinister from any angle ;-)

It'd look even happier with the Tommy Kaira front end

That front end reminds me too much of the rx-8. It is just too pointy or something.

Throw on the "custom grill" and it looks like a lil youngin Z with braces.

I guess if you really stretched your imagination, my Z looks like it's playing peek-a-boo coming out of my garage (I really need to stop drinking before I go to bed at night)

I would be happy too if I were my Z, after all there has been a lot of hot a$$ that has been sitting in that passenger seat.
