Default 350Z Convertible Amuse

06 350Z GT Roadster Amuse

It took me 3 weeks to finishing this project and here are some pictures of my Z. I couldn't find any Roadster Z with Amuse.. I hope mine is the first one!!! haha i've heard people got amuse on their Roadster but no pictures!

Special thanks to the Tri-Circle team.
No more hamburger logo!

I hope you guys like it (:

Looks good!!! I considered Amuse for my ZR too but went with Aerosync. I haven't seen any ZRs with it until yours.

Nice Yogi! Congrats on the Amuse front! And the FD looks awesome! Do you take her up to the DGRR? I keep meaning to bring the RX8 to that rally.

Looks like you are taking pics mid-day. (When the sun is mid-sky) Since you have a black car, you need low angle sunlight and a circular polarizing filter. Wait till an hour before sunset and take a pic with the sun behind you. (You may have to plan where you will take this pic so the back ground is nice and the sun will be good. If you have a 35mm digital, use the polarizing filter (about $35) and rotate till the black looks nice and deep. It will make any swirl marks or imperfections disappear. If you have a car with tinted windows, it will black the window out versus seeing through it.

Try different angles when taking the shot. You don't want a shadow in front of the car. If you have that, you're shooting the wrong direction. Don't be afraid to get low to take that shot. Just the right angle can make your car look low and mean.

The car looks great, now you just need the right photo to show it off!

Keep up the good work and hope to see ya at ZdayZ 2011?
