If you don't want to go through the hassle of paint and fitment I suggest
- Chargespeed bottomline sideskirts.
- Rear diffuser.
I can guarantee your car will be even more dope.

@YellowHoodie.
I KNEW white on white would be dope.
My friends looked at me like I was crazy when I said I wanted white!
Sadly, at the time, I cared about what people thought about my car, and went with gold

I've always wanted to post my car in here.
I feel that it's now finally worthy to be shown.

IMHO.
If you go two toned, go all the way around.
To each their own, some people like having their lip a black color while the rest is matching with their car.
Screw the TE37's. Keep what you have. Get them powder coated gold (or DIY) and keep the lip polished

Well I had ordered it with a black lip originally then after a few days wanted to go with a white lip but it was too late It looks alright for now but the paint is all chipped up from rocks and the usual daily drive bs. Anyways, I will eventually redo it probably sometime next spring. As for the wheels they are mediocre they look alright but are really heavy. Track days I use the stock gt wheels but just really like the look of the te's especially in gold. I would probably skimp out and get the knockoffs unless I were to run into a large sum of money heh.

PPW all around? Including canards?
What about center grill? Keeping it black? Or PPW as well?

Damn rock chips. Hate those. I've got a few decent ones on my bumper already.

+1 on the PPW with gold TE's.
I really wanted them but I didn't want to curb rash expensive rims.
+2 for knock offs

Center black as well as the canards just paint the lip white, I don't mind the way it is now though the 2 tone ings looks pretty good. If I keep the lip black I am going to probably coat it with linex or rhino liner or something to keep it from getting chips and cracks.

Thanks! That means a lot to me! I'm happy where I'm at for now. I had some varr doggies and loved the 0 offset on them, but GT-S has been my favorite wheel since I got my Z. Dream come true to get the Mag Blues too.

The only thing I might look into is swapping my EvoII exhaust for the Bassani...

And selling my Varrs.
