GQ 350z... Here's a picture of the same car from the rear 3/4 to see the rear lip but not sideskirts hehe.
And the orange car is another guy who doesn't have sideskirts. Pictures aren't the best they can be but it shows a good side profile to see how low each piece is as well as front and rear 3/4 views.

Thanks for the pics!
I've seen the black car before, but the orange one is new to me.
Is it just me..or does the front lip look kind of retarded on the lemans z? Just doesnt look right. In some pics the ings lip is so ugly, in others its clearly the best one for the z.

Yeah, it looks especially "tacked on" in that picture. Like the line between it and the bumper is over-exaggerated for some reason too. I have another picture of it on a lemans car (ZRAYGO's car) and it looks alot better there.
His car was actually quite an inspiration for me, he had the entire kit including the hood/fenders like how i wanted to go. Just can't decide 100% on wheels yet and if i remember correctly both you and BashaZ are rolling on SF-Winnings aren't you? I'll try to change it up, or there'll be 3 different coloured Z's with the exact same kit/rims here haha.

Okay, This has been the most useful thread for me in months!! Two questions. 1) Any idea of aftermarket exhausts that will NOT work with the rear piece? 2) Where can I find the poly or hybrid for the best price? (dont mind if its a replica as long as its not TOO bad)

And... the old Injens that come out at an angle might not fit through the opening very well. Same with all of the single exit, angled exhausts. But those are just my thoughts, haven't tested them out to be certain. The dual tipped exhausts wouldn't look very good with this rear piece either.

dkny_boi: I've never seen the orange one before either. And yes, you and Ravi are right, the front lip did look messed up when I first saw it, but it could be the angle causing a shadow, because that's where the lip curve up towards the actual bumper. That would be funny if you also went with the Winnings...mmm..now THAT would be a sweet picture! LOL
cbrflyer919: I don't know of any, but if you go with any kind of angled exit/tip exhaust, those might not fit. Stock fits fine, as does the Fujitsubo. I'm also guessing HKS shouldn't be a problem. Nismo may or may not, as it kind of angles upwards. Injen's old angled exhaust probably wont fit either.
Ravi: definately leaning towards the +17s in the rear...damn I'm going to lose soo much $$$ trading up! Oh well!

Do you guys think this kit would look better with 19" or 20" wheels? The Z on the Ings site looks like its sitting on 20s. Any thoughts?
Also, does anyone know where I can get an Ings +1 trunk emblem? Have you guys seen an Ings emblem on the fender or sideskirt?

I honestly think it'd be fine with either 19" or 20" wheels... all depends on what you like. The wheels on their site, both style volks, are 19's.
Not sure where to get the emblems, but i have seen pictures with the emblems on the fenders and on the rear bumper.
-edit- BhashaZ, i'll remember to PM you when i need those emblems too
