Teeth or no Teeth? Photoshopped Grill
My first post. I did some quick work in Photoshop to see what the Z would look like without the teeth in the grill. What do you think?
I much prefer the version without the teeth.

funny how the only way the new Z looks remotely nice IMO is after its chopped the f*ck up.

I think I read that Nissan claims the teeth actually direct airflow to either the air intakes or to cool the front brakes.

Your first post is a FAIL. What are you trying to do, make it look like a 350? Idiot.

Why not just paint the teeth black ???? No need to change the front. And like someone said, they are functional.

LOL, my first post as well. Although I have owned a z31, z32 and currently drive a VQMax.
I liked the no teeth look.
So I took someone elses photo and PS'd it with further recesses headlight deck(ala r34), carbon fiber to hood, tint, the gt-r "wingettes" and sharpened the angles of the front clip, debadged and added a nismo decal.
Kinda ricey, maybe a lil too s2kish- but i think it looks ok(esp. for the 10 mins I spent on it).

Perhaps someone can PS CF lip on the 370Z. I'm eager for this. Plus, what happens when you add in the CF hood ducts from the GT-R? It's much more subtle than those crazy JCGT types.
