Default No LIP KIT on a Z?????

It all started with my 2000 civic Si milano red, the car was some what built internaly, but the outside was stock, The Outside was stock because my Si had a lip kit that was factory, and people tried stealling it, even random people wanted to buy my lip kit when i was selling the car.

My point is why wont nissan sell a Z with a factory lip kit?, I know it would cost a little more but it would look really "clean". I just bought a NISMO front lip took me a while to find a good paint shop to match the "Sunset Lemans" paint, I will post pics on here of the lip soon as I put it on.

So is it just me? or is the Z with out a lip kit ( NOT BODY KIT) looks really plain and boring?, I dont know maybe cause im 22 and like to modify everything but what do you guys think?

I think that the Z is one of the limited cars that looks awesome without a kit.

The Z looks nice either way, If I had to get a lip, It would be the Ings+1 half kit.

Nissan doesn't want to take a bite into their NISMO performance partner.


And I do agree, the Z's need some sort of front lip. To me, (TO ME) the front view looks like a happy guppy out of the water without one.

I think the front looks pretty good w/o a lip..

But the rear imo is kinda missing something....

I changed the front bumper as the front always bugged me. It looks like a Japanese kid's cartoon to me. I've seen ones on the road behind me and don't care for it.

New front = more my taste.
More my taste = me happy.
Me happy = all that matters.

Still looks like a Japanese cartoon character, but at least one that'll kick some donkey.

From the side it doesn't look so dramatic...
