Default Depo lights, fitted, with pics

Very pleased! Look a lot better in the flesh! The illuminated Z's when braking and with lights on are a bit cheesy but put a huge smile on my face - hence mission accomplished









You can see that fit and fitment is good. It's not perfect on the driver's side (i.e. your passenger side in the US ), but it's still sealed and leaves no gaps. I give it a 8/10. Time and experience will show how it survives rain and stuff like that, but it just got jetwashed with flying colours, so it's going well so far.

If you smoked it out..I think it'll look much better. Nice job

Simple plug and play type? How long did the install take?
Take some night pics.

Good for you man - you gotta do what you like. I agree the tinted overlays would add a nice touch. The bulge in the transparent part of the light housing looks good with your wing.

nice job, i do believe smokin out the lenses might make it better especially since your car is silverstone.

btw- do you have any idea how that rear lip lines up with the nismo sideskirts? kinda like the look of it.

Looks nice!! I agree with the others about the overlays. I think it will enhance the effect of the taillights!! BTW what wing do you have?? I really like it.

Its from a company called Spoilerdepot. Disturbingly cheap, and astonishingly good quality

It sits over the existing spoiler, as you can see on the 'overhead' shot.

Hey can you get a side shot of the whole car? I want to see how the spoiler sits from the side. Do you have the link to the spoiler you got, I like it.

Is the spoiler screwed on or just attached with some sort of 3M tape?

i dont think bats overlays will work unless he has a cutout for those lights.

nice seup. I like the wide bumper plate look.

i take it you made it say Z350 instead of 350z on the rear trunk deck?
