like James suggested a dark metallic blue is cool or maybe a dark maroon color (not like brickyard) but like a really dark red/maroon.
I like the dark red idea...I may just paint the whole thing graphite..kinda of a reverse of what I have now...still up in the air

OMG.. hope you don't use it as daily driver haha. I just slightly cracked my veilside front today. I can't imagine how you'll drive with that thing. Don't think you'll be going to tracks anytime soon either. That's pretty unique body kit.

Very intresting project!!

I really like that whole look with the venom kit and widebody + those killer wheels!! Pretty serious stereo stuff going on as well!

I think this can turn out to be one of the nicests agressivly styled Z's around if you patch evertything up well, so far its looking good, im looking forward to following the development of this!

Keep it up!

I do like the kit, and even thoughg you are going FI with FMIntercooler, the openings on the side of the front bumper are still to wide. At least your engine will get great ventilation.

As mentioned it would be the best looking aggressive kit, much better than the V3.

Keep us updated.

While this kit isn't something I would do I like to think I can appreciate the level of craftsmanship involved. It looks like a quality kit and whoever is putting it on looks like they know what they are doing.

PRIMAL EVIL......
The rims are amazing, and the way i see it you should go with black rims and a dark body color, like Lambo purple or nissans midnight purple (i love dark metallic purple), any how, the kit looks amazing, a little hint, it would look even more amazing if you install brake cooling ducts in the side vents or smaller intercoolers for say oil cooling, just try to fill up the space with something other than the stock plastic containers....

Good luck and props on a VERY cool design....

just the 350z community in general, it's nice to own a car with so many enthusiasts, it would be hard for anyone to get sponsors if people didn't enjoy looking at the Z

I hope you aren't having "XS Customs" do your body work. After the way they f***ed me over, I don't think I'd wish the experience on anyone.

I'm also still a bit angry that you recommended me to that hole of a "shop".

Oh, haha. I thought you meant your "community" as in your home town. That makes much more sense
