Smile Finally: bodykit is on - cr@p pics, but oh well

Finally got my Greddy kit on. It has been on for a few days, but Nissan, who painted and fitted the kit, f00ked up one of the wheel nuts on the left rear! Don't ask how, just believe me when I tell you.

Sorry about the quality of the pics, I was in a bit of a hurry to take them.








I am all smiles at the mo. Love it to bits. Yeah, a full kit would have been nicer, but for the price i paid and the fact that it keeps its lines, I am well chuffed. Promise to take some better pics.

I am thinking of painting the mesh at the rear of the sideskirts silver, any comments on this? Anybody else done it? need pics to see what it will look like.

I don't know what "chuffed" means, but I like the car. Very nice.

My thoughts are dont *** it up if you are going to paint the sides because that can get very nasty looking

Those pics are not crappy I could link you to some threads with crappy pics lol

Your car looks great!! The kit is clean much better then some of the crazy stuff I have seen that totally messes the Z lines up, do non-US spec Z's have headlight washers?? What are those things on the front bumper?? Clean Z!!

Nice, I think the kit looks best on darker cars.

I'm sure in the desert you have some wide open spaces for acceleration!

Giua Cuzzo rear spoiler. Will set you back around Euro500 to buy it and ship it from Germany/Austria, unless the price has dropped.

Cheers Enzo

Zilvia,

Sorry, not sure of Euro to US$. I think somebody mentioned that the cost of the spoiler was like US$500, wich is around Euro380. I might be wrong, it was a long time ago.
