Looks good. I like the blacked out headlights and the seats. I do agree that the grille doesn't quite belong. Atleast it should be easy to remove. The factory grille behind it is just fine.

Isn't there a law against having convertible tops up in California? LOL. Congrats on the new ride.

The general impression is that it looks like something purchased at Home Depot. Even the billet aluminum one looks bad. It just makes the front of the car look too flat by closing up the inlet.

On the bright side, the grille is handy if you need to grate some cheese.

Personally, With the headlights, I find the chrome (stock) headlights look best if you have polished wheels or a fancy grille. It carries the theme well. If you decide to go black wheels to coordinate with the headlights, then I'd suggest painting the door handles black and do away with the grille (But that's my tastes.)

You are lucky to get those seats. They are the best. Do you also have Brembo brakes or the standard floating caliper style.

yeah well thats how it was in the beginning and im slowly working towards that black wheels etc. but i dont wanna ruin the chrome rims lol but yeah now im for sure gonna get rid of the grill. and i was gonna color match the lights but the black was cool for now yeah i was thinking about painting door handles but i dont want them to flake like i saw on another z owners car. yeah the seats are the best lol, and no sadly i dont have the brembo breaks but i was thinking of doing a swap

Interesting choice of wing Gunninit. Is it bolted on or attached by doublesided tape? Personally, I'd look to remove it. It really takes away from the rest of the car. (Just my opinion ... FWIW)
