Default C-West PFRP Half Lip Kit

Just picked it up today from Titan Motorsports here in Hawaii. PAID FRICKIN' $1400 for it shipped here. The buggers shipped in two huges *** boxes about 5ft long for each. I went down to the shop with my Z, and I underestimated their size as this is the first time I'm adding any type of body kit to any of my cars. Had to go back home and grab my dad's truck.

Yes, I got raped on shipping- $400+. Absulutely hammered and sodomized on shipping cost. Got my HKS dual exhaust shippng also, again, raped for shipping. At least my Varis air duct shipping was cheap.

Anyways, enough of the references to bodily violations. Can't wait to slap this thing on! I'm thinking of doing the prep work myself after I do some research on just what is done to prep the suckers, then letting the pro's do the paint.

Being a newbie to body kits, I was thinking JDM stuff would be perfect. I guees all manufacturers will have imperfections. I tried fitting the front lip, but I scratched up the front bumper a little, so I'll wait till later and maybe tape up some of the bumper surface to protect it from scratching, or remove the front bumper all together.




Can't wait to see the Advan/C-West combo.

I'll be updating this thread when the kit is on, and how fitment was like.

Glad to be in the club brah. Again, awesome car.

Hurts to live in Hawaii brothers. Seriously. We PAY for living in paradise.

Can't wait for my Blitz spoiler to arrive from Blitz USA and see the C-West/Blitz combo. Seen a couple PPWs with the PFRP kit, so I have no doubt it'll look great. Just need to find a good paint shop/body shop here in the 808.

How the F did you get sideskirts in your Z? I rushed to the shop excited as hell, and when I saw the boxes... I was like, "sh*t." Especially since traffic in Hawaii is hellish to say the least. You must have had those skirts and front lip hanging out the back with a red scarf tied to it.
