Sorry I did not get a chance last night for more pics (w/o flash). Def. will do tonight. Also, keep in mind EVO-R stuff is stick on even though real CF. Jay can do custom work like this with the pieces wrapped and molded with real CF but I believe a higher price.

Where can I find these at?
Hopefully they come in black carbonfiber
Tried SP-Powering and no luck
Would you guys believe me if I told you that this car is outside my house right now? Turns out my little cousin's friend bought it off of a used car lot in NY. Weird! Here are some horrible pics I took really quickly...

Is it the real do-luck or did someone copy the car? Should have Nismo on both sides of the front bumper and no side graphic, unless its the wide body then it should be on double sixes and have side graphics? either way sweet ride infront of your house and I want it.

I remember seeing the car up for sale a while back, in one of those adds in the back of most tuner mags, modified cars for sale or something like that.

I am pretty sure it is a copy. Here is the shop that I believe did most of the work on the car. Well at least here is the link to the car in the shops gallery:

They bought the car and put their name on it. It is one of two made. The other identical is on the West Coast. If I remember correctly, it was made for a video game like NFS. They've(Desmond) have tried selling it numerous times. I have lots of pics of this car when they just randomly showed up at our car show last year for the Carolina Z club in Charlotte. Not long after that, the car was shipped to NY or NJ, I can't remember which.

No, it's my understanding that a shop in Cali built these two identical cars for one of the video games. I'm not sure if it was used in the game or just for promo. One is still in Cali. One was in NC(the owner of DesmondPerformance) moved here from Cali, now it's in NY.

EDIT - Found it on their website:

Two Desmond cars were shown, our 04 350Z and 04 TSX. Desmond Performance acquired the Do-Luck 350Z built by SP Engineering (CA) for the promotion of "Need For Speed Underground 2"
