I love the hood. The wing looks great too. I think its among the best for the ZR.

Thanks Mike, it took some work to get the wing to fit and the hood was gel coated 4 times to get it perfect.

Default Nice Looking Car!!!

You have a very nice looking roadster there. In a few years do you plan to trade it in? If so do you think the dealer will give you the amount that put in it for the modifications?

Hey Three Fitty-
Body kit and new hood look excellent on the ZR. Who has the Visage body kit ? I went to Visage web site but it only shows Mercedes,VW,BMW's bit no Nissan's.
Im looking for similiar body kit as you have for my ZR so need your help.
Thanks,
Ray

muscleknight- Glad you like it. My car is in Turbo magazine this month and is scheduled for another magazine shoot after the new mods are complete. When I do sell it I'm hopeing that these shoots will help in the resale value to a private buyer. Aftermarket parts really hurt the trade-in value.

rapidray- I ordered my kit from Evolution Autosports ask for Jeff (703)961-9090. If you have any questions let me know.

Best looking roasdster I've seen on the east coast! Keep up the good work. Can I ask how much you've spent in total for mods. It looks like around $12,000-$20,000. I just traded in my 03 DB coupe or an 04 SB Roadster. I have spent around $10,000 with rims, body kit, exhaust, CAI, and internal mods. I will probably due the same except for TT. It gets costly at times but you only live once!

If I had a roadster, I'd want it to look exactly like that. Good job.

Thanks, as of right now my reciepts total up to about $30,000. Your right though, you only live once. Good luck with the turbo, I heard that the SEMA show had some incredible kits.

I had a friend paint it for me, he said the hardest part was getting it smooth. It cost me almost $400 for the gel coating and blocking to get it smooth and $200 to paint it.

I couldn't have said it better myself. Your roadster kills the rest...
