What to do about front-on view of the Z?
I love this car like my life depended on it. She's a beauty, EXCEPT for the front-on view! I actually HATE this angle of the car. I think it looks like a little narrow box, particularly the further away from the car you get. Is there a kit out there that will change the front end geometry to make it more appealing, or do the hood length and cabin compartment angles just doom this car to being boxy from the front view? I'm also considering a vented hood if that'll help the car visually. Please help, I want to adore the 350z from all angles! Pics of any front views that are bad a$$ would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah, a front lip of a full aftermarket bumper replacement will change the look of the car completely. Start shopin', bud!

After I got my flux capacitor, I had the Wilson hover conversion done.

VIS Racing V-Spec Lip Carbon Fiber. I had the sides painted to match the car and just left the center carbon.
