Body Kits and maintenance
Hello All,
I was planning on putting a full bodykit on my 2006 350Z. Wondering if there are any issues or problems when it comes time to oil changes or warranty fixes due to problems with getting the car on the hoist without damaging the body kit's plastic/fibreglass/polyeurethane etc..

It depends on your ground clearance with the bodykit. It would also depend on the bodykit material. In my case, the car sits very low with an FRP kit and there is no way I would ever take it to Nissan for any work. The risk is too high. For oil changes you need very low profile ramps just to lift the car enough to get a hydraulic jack underneath.

Oh God, so true!
My advice, if the car is a toy, weekend cruiser, or show queen, go ahead and do it. But if she is a daily driver, it will suck all the fun out of the car.
