if shine ever decides to produce this kit, I am in for front bumper, rear bumper and side skirts, but NO wing for me.

I would be willing to put a deposit down to make this happen.

My preference would be for the upper intake hole to be filled leaving the two lower holes as the are on the current kit. I am happy with the flexible FRP that shine puts out and would like a single material vs having a CF lower valance

Dude, WTF, Wald is probably the best looking kit out there. That and the Ings half-kit do such a good job accentuating the Z shape... Can't you just leave well enough alone?

the wald does look nice, but the front bumper and lip is starting to show wear. also, the Wald sides don't secure as well as I would like, so I have replaced them already with nismo. I am happy with the wald kit otherwise

The strosek kit is the kit I wanted from the start, but never gave it a second thought based on the price. I have seen the shine quality and think this is a viable option for me now

Actually I just looked at the side by side, Strosek is beginning to grow on me... The rear is a bit too Porschesque, but still, the whole Z is a bit Porschesque. Ever since I put on the coilovers couple month back, the car's new stance is simply begging for a body kit, so probably after winter I'll look into something. Also, your remark about about Shine auto's product quality mean a lot, given your choice of other mods. But don't get too proud b/c you are still an APS nuthugger... (j/k)

Thumbs up

OK so it looks like theres AT LEAST:
14 for the rear bumper
11 for the sides
8 for the front
18 for the spoiler/wing
and another handful for the hatch....
and I'm sure theres other lurkers, ebayers and random people who would be interested

I'm ready to put down a full payment as deposit on the full body kit plus wing if it happens and price hovers below the 2k area...

Looks like some pretty serious interest to me

You are one lucky guy to be able to enjoy the Z on the autobahn, my friend! I, on the other hand, have to contend with using "350Z Autobahn" as a search string on You Tube

Everything from Germany is expensive, LOL

Anyway, just sent an inquiry to Strosek for the side skirts. Since I have already bought the rear bumper and rear wing from them a year ago, I was able to ask them to give me a special discount of 25%. Guess how much is total price including the 22% VAT + shipping to Poland? 730 euros (around1000 USD) !!!!

By the way, I also learned that these are not replacement skirts. Strosek calls them 'side flippers' and they are to be mounted beneath the original side skirts using the original screws. i know Strosek parts are expensive (spent almost $3000 for the rear bumper and wing) but $1000 for a pair of small add-on lip is quite hard to justify.

Seems like I have to wait for SHINE to complete my kit

I have a feeling if Shine replicates these parts they will sell more than just the people who have shown interest, especially once others see pics of the parts installed on our cars.
