Default wanting to change the look

i've been wanting to change the look of my Z to a more aggressive look or maybe just adding a couple of pieces to complete it. I just feel like its missing something cosmetically but i'm not sure what.

I was thinking of Volk GTM's w/red lips & flat black centers, flat black door handles, V2 kit w/flat black canards & flat black center, vented hood painted red excpet the vents, APR carbon fiber mirrors, & maybe a wing.

Thats the idea i'm thinking of now but thats not set in stone. I'm just wondering if you guys had any ideas on what to do or what you think.

V2 front on it and the nice two tonned idea would be sick

I'm not a fan of red but that looks delicious. I'm not sure on the black wheels, would have to see it... What about painting the mirrors black? Or blacked out headlamps?

BTW what body kit and suspension you running? Looks great! Sort of the look I'd like to do at some point.

I have the V2 on my roadster and I think it looks good. The canards, on the other hand, did not!!!! They just looked kinda goofy on a roadster.

Stillen wing would make it look more aggressive.

I like how it looks now too. You don't want to over do it. Maybe a more aggressive cf hood painted or not would looke nice.

Don't do too much to it, its already Sharp as hell Red and Black being two of my favorited colors for the Z-car or Sports cars period, hell I like them all.

I like it just as it stands maybe a rear wing like SluggoZ has on his Black Roadster and maybe color corridinate the wheels. You are pretty darn close to near perfection right now.

I'll end with SluggoZs 350ZR is so pretty it makes your di@% hard looking at it. Man that's a clean 350ZR, yours is bordering on that right now, IMO!!
