don't have any pics up yet because the kit is being installed now but you can check out www.vertexmotorsports.com and they might have some pics of before/what they're doing now. It's the mastergrade widebody think it made about a foot wider up front and a little more in the back. As far as fitting fat tires out back i should have no problem fitting 315s and once all is done might try a little bigger.

Toby,

I was there last night. (Nice to meet you ComebackZ.... )

The kit is going to look pretty damn awesome and I have to admit, it looks like the room in the back and front would allow for A LOT BIGGER tires all around... 315 should be easy to fit back there...

Good luck guys,

This is the only private(non pro circuit) wide body 350Z that I like:

(warning, huge pictures)

I like it because he did it the right way(and expensive way) It's a one of a kind, no kit. All the widebody kit out there, I find destroys the line of the Z while the above wide body Z keeps the original lines but just enhances it.

I couldn't agree with you more!!! I wish someone would come out with something similar for the G. We only have 2 options and IMHO they both look like ****.

Nice to meet you too and again your car is amazing can't wait to see it when it's completed. How is your hood coming along? Steve really does good work and is easy to work with. I was thinking about 265s up front because in a previous thread on one of the forums someone said that any wider would hurt performance when entering a turn and it would cause to much drag. If that is wrong please correct me. IMO the other widebody kits look good and I'm sure perform well, however the matergrade kit looks like it belongs in Super GT with testing and quality to back it up. Check out the kit www.mastergrade.net I don't feel that it destroys the lines of the Z but to each his own.

The top secret for the Z looks sweet! If the rear for the G matched the lines of the car like the Z does I would buy it in a heart beat!
