Thanks man. I'm currently "trying" to get my Z in an aggressive look. It is for sale right now but if it doesn't sell i'll be changing the look. I'll post up to date pics of it when i get a chance. Thanks for the compliments man! they are appreciated.

If you want to be different, pick up the Mastergrade roadster parts, there's only 1 in the US rocking any of it and that's Stan.

I've already gotten the carbon fiber vented hood from you guys. I'm just not feeling the price for the rear pieces (trunk & cover)

Mastergrade's Tonneau coer is an overlay and cheaper then the Seibon, but their trunk is more expensive then Seibon's.

Don't forget about the A-pillars and roof piece to complete the full carbon top half !

since no one was able to prove me wrong i'm going to assume i'm correct that you can't make a Z roadster look aggressive OR it just hasn't been done yet.

There are plenty of them...
But you dont want to see the modified roadsters thread... or people do not want to post pics here...
There is a magazine.. I dont remember which one at the moment... that have a roadster on the cover. The car is red and is for drifting... if you do not think that is agressive then I don't know your definition for agressive is...
In any case, modify your car and make it look agressive, im sure it will come out good...

I can think of two VERY nice aggressive roadsters on the East Coast.

I guess since you have your own "definition" you should start posting pics to yourself and see if you come up with anything...

In the mean time....some old pics.

Rouge350z, I wasn't trying to be disrespectful of your car. I hate that you took it that way. I wasn't trying to start an argument when i posted this topic either. I was just curious if there was any roadsters out there that look mean as hell. You have a very nice looking Z but i don't see why you think its aggressive. Its deffinetly a show winner but nothing you would see at a track tearing it up. I guess what it comes down to is people's view on aggressive. I did post pics up of examples of what "I" thought was aggressive. I'll probably start a discussion about this in another thread for curiousity.

Not offended. I just think you already have ideas of what you think aggressive is.

My car would not be on the track only because it cost to much (hate to see it hit a wall ). The car has everything it needs to perform well. Full modified suspension, big brakes, and a TT.

Besides who builds a track car out of a roadster. Giving up a ton of weight to start with.

Any car with a big a$$ intercooler upfront looks aggressive to me.

Cool

While a droptop Z can look aggressive and one is on the drift circuit, they look better clean like mine. A simple wing, front lip and wheels. Top up its not so nice, top off...... sweeeeet!

This is an agressive look in my view!
Roadster or coupe, doesn't matter. A nice pair of eyelids, a simple bumper without the yellow cat-eyes, rimms with the proper ET (I think it will also look good with dark golden rimms), all clean black style. Maybe a de-badge all arround.

At the back I don't think it's much to be done. Not sure if a wing will look good on a roadster, maybe just a duck tail.

That's how I want to make mine. I will soon put black foil on the cat-eyes and see how it looks.

And of course, the "I <3 cops" sticker.
