Default nismo kit painting options on pikes peak white

hey guys,

thinking about purchasing the nismo full body kit.

should i paint it all white, or go with the nismo look and go two-tone with black.

i think i'm liking the two-tone look, but your opinions count for the final outcome. i'm torn between painting it all same color of car or tw-tone.

let me know what you guys think.

here are a few pix on the diffeent schemes.

this first one is fully painted.

PLEASE do it all PPW,..I'm dying to see it done that way,...PHOTOSHOPERS
Please Chop a pick of the NISMO Z33 in white

I'm thinking the same thing!
But Hasemi Motorsports has a front lip just like the NISMO Front bumper w/o the Bumper and Side skirts like the R tune ones--and I'm awating the Price on the Bavaria NISMO look wing sold seperatly!


Should look Killer John!
Never seen a GOOD pic of a PPW Z w/ no stickers w/ the NISMO kit!

color match would be my choice.
I never really liked the two-tone look unless you have a Toyota Camry or Avalon. Even then, two tone doesn't look THAT good.

ew two tone looks nasty. I am not a CF fan other than the fact of how light it is. NISMO kit isnt even CF (or is it?). Unless you are some person that wants to show off that your car is aftermarket and you feel the need to make it really obvious what is aftermarket and what is not. Paint it. btw, cf kits with a cf hood look pretty hot, but not on white.

Black two-tone just hides the bottom parts, so car looks uppered(?) instead of lowered, IMO.

Now, how about red two-tone? Here is QUICK photoshop

A siren would fit the 350Z ambulance perfectly

I know you guys don't care for the two tone but I'm going with black Nismo Style and Top Secret Lip on my Brickyard. The Brickyard looks black most of the time anyway so I think this will be a nice accent. What are your thoughts for black kit (wing brickyard)?

That is an easy one. Paint it all to match. Nothing worse than a bolted-on look. Do it right.

Default NOT TWO TONE!!!!!!

I think that the nismo kit will look nice in white and give it a wider, lower stance-look. the two tone will take away from the lowered look that you might be looking for. where are you going to get the body kit painted? i was thinking of getting a body kit as well but i don't know where they can paint the kit.
