Most kits have a certian flow to them and you dont want to mess that flow up by mixing and matching but I've seen some people do it and it comes out good but be carefull its a risk!!!!

Nothing wrong with mixing and matches, so long as they all somewhat flow together. There are many successfull mix-matched combos.

I want to do the greddy front lip and sides with the sazuka rear. I just dont like the greddy rear, but dont like any of the rest of the Sazuka.
I can never seem to find a kit that I like every part on, except for one. After seeing the Asuka kit, I might just go with that whole kit, thats the first one I can say that about.

You should do the Do-Luck rear with that combo. The one with the CF difuser.

Im actually going thru this now myself...

I am going to try to use the Nismo front spoiler along with the Veilside Version 1 side skirts... I think they will flow okay, the V1 sideskirts look similar to the Nismo sideskirts I think...

My suggestion, what Ive been doing, look at a LOT of pictures of kits on cars in the zmodified.com gallery...


Best of luck!

I have the V.2, but cant decide on sides! I like the V1 c/f Veilside's, but dont know if it flows together. I might have to go all Nismo, which I dont want to do.

Thats a good combo, one question though. What makes you choose the greddy sides over ings? I personally love em both and had both of them on my Z.

i have seen lots of body kits looking real nice when mixed. it's really all personal preference. for me, i'm going with a veilside v1 cf lip, greddy sides, and veilside v1 rear vallance with nismo v2 replica spoiler (cf center blade).
