Default New Guy with a question

I am going to be buying a Daytona Blue 06 Z here in a month or two, and was wondering how much a few additions to it would be. I LOVE the look of the blacked out brake lights and headlights, also the black door ***** as well as the black 350z logo and badges. I was also wondering how much it is to buy the nismo wing for the back of it and roughly how much it is to get all that stuff installed. I can post pics if im confusing anyone. Thanks for all the help guys!

LOL you're just like me, I was planning out mods before I even got my car!

Zilvia's right, you're gonna want to get Blue Batmobile's overlays for the headlights / taillights / rear turn signals. For the front side markers, you can either buy smoked markers, carbon markers, or get another overlay from Blue Bat. Of course tinted windows (probably 15%)

I think that Bat is still working on his website, send member Blue Batmobile a PM and ask him about ordering.

Any shop should be able to paint the door handles and emblems for you, I wouldn't imagine it would be too much.

I think performancenissanparts has the Techno-R (Nismo replica) wing for $275, plus shipping, then you'll have to have it painted and installed... probably another $200-300 for that.

Overlays are practically the same as tinting ... on the Z you've posted, all the lights are overlays, except maybe the headlights (housing painted) ... here is a link to blue batmobile's work http://photobucket.com/albums/y42/BlueBatmobile2005/
