why did you take off the vortex generators in some of the pics?
I never really saw it w/out them, I was just curious.

looks nice for sure - I sorta like it better without the side generators as it just looks cleaner to me, but either way it's a nice unique part.

Still debating over the rear fog for my own car........another nice unique touch

very nice, may i suggest switching your v1 sides to CF for the "complete" cf look? They'd probrably match the vortex generators quite well

i think nitrouz's thunder is completely stolen at this point for *this* thread. But he's gonna get it back once he starts is monster thread after his car is completed...any ETA on that?

depends...

Have a new kit coming in, and a new stereo install. Everything should be completed in January. However I may post a thread in December after the current stage is done.

Thanks for all the comments, my main goal was not to go overboard with the add ons. Hopefully I can stop soon, it's very addicting.

omg. installing this thing is the biggest pita.. you can barely fit your fingers between the bumper and the diffuser for the rear center piece... i finally installed mine the other day after getting the Z back for the xmas holidays...

it does look very very sick. but i'm kinda worried about the stability of it at high speeds..10 bolts for mounting seems kinda weak if its supposed to suck your car down.. hm...

Sure is sweet looking tho - worth the trouble I am sure. Nothing out quite like it.

I hear you on the attachment - I know I would hate to see a $1200 piece of carbon fiber in my rear view mirror @ 166 mph.

Haha, I thought yours was already on or I would have warned ya. The nismo left absolutely zero room. I ran out of cuss words and had to start making up some.
