Very nice work on the interior. It is hard to take a car that is so strongly themed and keep everything consistent when adding to it.
I think the theme is very unique, very well done, and a definite eye catcher. The only thing I'd question as far as making the interior flow is the Nissan emblems that the birds are carrying. I get the idea, but I think for the flow of your theme, the birds alone would have served you better.
On the other hand, very few people are creative and artistic enough to even conceive this car, let alone create it.
The level of detail is amazing and I love the idea of the etched glass.
Along with most of the others, this is not a car I'd drive as a guy, but the quality of work is commendable.

This car looks amazing in person...I saw it at THE RUN. At first clance you say what was that person thinking and then when you really take the time to look at it and understand their goals, its truly a work of art.
Congrats on your car show wins.....

Definitely not my style (being a man and all), but I can appreciate the craftsmanship involved in it. And yes, it needs a set of wheels. The ones they throw on at the dealership are pretty weak looking.
As far as the shows, you know my opinion on it... Any show that you can pull a stock car off the showroom floor and win a trophy because it is detailed is not an enthusiasts show to me (like the shows you are winning at). For reference, I pulled in one of these shows with some other Z's and we had stock Z's winning "best in show" because they were clean and easy to detail. It's more of a detailing contest than anything.
Have you entered any real competitive car shows yet?

This is simply a beautiful car. I had the good fortune of meeting one of the owners at a car show event last year. Sure, the car doesn't follow the typical path that many on take on this forum, but she definitely draws a crowd 
To the op, awesome interior, I am sure I will see you and your husband at future shows.

Not working for me, sorry. Yes the rims make me angry, but besides that, the paint doesnt even flow well. It looks like they painted just the sides without ever fading/matching for the front and rear. It might be a really nice picture, but it looks out of place. Not to mention the fact that you went with the stillen SC. I dont know...nothing about your car is doing it for me. Ok, I like the interior but you totally fcuked it up with those birds. Sorry but if your husband posted this same thread under ZPrince, he'd be flamed like no other.

I'm sorry, but that's the ugliest thing I've seen. Where do you live? The Florida Keys?

We hire only the best people to do the work, who have proven themselves. Both the graphics and the interior were completed by professional artists who have well established reputations and credentials. All parts are brand new.
Oh by the way, our car is clean to be sure, we do not spray anything on it to cover the dirt so it looks clean. We clean it extensively.

There are always going to be negative comments from those people jealous or with no appreciation for art.

I'm glad you enjoy doing what you're doing so whatever floats your boat. However, I've been told by some of the locals (not giving names) that you come across as a bit arrogant. I can also see this in your posts. If you're going to give people that impression then you may want to have a good basis for doing so...

Thanks for the initial compliment.
