-hopefully youll be able to some time they really do make these cars look better im sure youll love it if you get a chance but abt the vinyl i bought it at a local shop ((5'x2'=$30)) but ik they have them on ebay alot cheaper. i just didnt want to wait around for the shipping. it didnt come precut i had to lay my pieces down and lcut around leaving about 1/2 a inch around to tuck it inside. was tricky at first since it was my first time using it but its actually easier then it sounds

+1 on the wheels having to go, they clash with the Z in my opinion.
Nismo and chargespeed bumpers look good.
Upgrade to the 06+ oem headlights/taillights, they're a must!

You have to sand the pieces down tho so think its sticks good if not it really wont stick and stay on very good

Looks great and it appears paint matched well also. Don't worry bout the wheels if you like its your car enjoy it.

Default New photos today

After church decided I'd look for a few spots for pictures but ended up at the same place that I used to go. Not the best quality taken with a note II.

I know what you mean about pulling over to take pics - it always makes me self-conscious too.

The Z and the pics look fantastic!
