Got a replica C-West bumper installed. Thought I'd add it to the gallery. I got it from 350zforums on this board. Fitment is above average and it turned out pretty good for what we started with.

 

Nice, I like this front end but I had a question about it: does the "air intake hole" have a mesh screen behind it? I definitely want a front fascia with the hole, will go great with my JWT cone and heat shield setup. I think a mesh screen of some sort would be really helpful to stop rocks, debris, and even disperse water and help keep the stuff out of my cone. You said this is a replica, do you know if the real C-west fascia comes with the screen?

I also like the Vissage (spelling?) one, it too has the air intake, and some pretty cool looking fog lights. Don't like the Stillen ones.

 

Yes, this bumper has a mesh screen that covers all of the openings. Even the main radiator entry.

I do not know if the real C-West bumper has them.

 

The fitment looks really good, nice lookin kit.

 

Where did you get that I am looking for a new bumper that looks good with the stock sides I think you said it was a replica too? and how much?

 

Its a "C1" bumper by carbon creations. I got it from 350zforums, a vendor on this board. It was around $300 bucks. It needed about another $300 to correct blemishes and straighten.

 

More pics???

Looks real nice. Good choice - I've always thought the C-West would be my choice if I went FI.

 

Looking good... now finish it off with some C-West sides.

 

Thanks guys! I'm not sure what to do about the side skirts yet. I'm not sold on the C-west ones. But I do have the "Italian Kit" rear valence on order. Also I can't make up my mind about headlight color. So here's dark.

 

i like dark...especially over yellow..that wing looks really nice....i think esprit or ings sides would look good...something very subtle with not too many ups downs ins and outs...nice wing too

 

Dark over yellow def!!

 

does the headlight tint diminish the brightness of the headlights? Looks really nice though.

 

wow that dark head light look is awesome, mean looking. I LIKE !!!

 

Yes, the overlays reduce the brightness of the hids. Thanks for the input guys. I'll have to take a look at some of the kits mentioned.

 

out of curiosity...which overlays do you use?

 

They are the Performance Nissan overlays. I tried BlueBats, but they were too thin for me to apply myself. I read in the instructions later that its recommended that you have two guys to install. The Performance ones can be installed with one guy in about 20 minutes.

 

wow that is a sexy Z... love it man. just curious, what kinda wheels are those? i usually dont like mesh but they look real good on your Z... what size also? and tire specs?

 

I was going to reply the yellow ones...till I scrolled down and saw the pic with your wing...definitely the darker ones...has an overall better look ot it.

What tint lvl is it...6/10 or 3/10???

 

Thanks! The wheels are CCW's. Complete Custom Wheels. 10.5"/18 and 9"/18. Offset 30 in rear and 25 up front. I normally run 295/35, 265/35 Toyos, but I've got my race tires on in the pics so they are Pirelli PZero Corsas, 255/35, 265,35.
