since you have somewhat of a black and blue thing going on, do you plan on smoking you tails?

As for the v2 front bumper I would definitely just get the whole center + the lip painted black too like this one below. It looks beyond siiick I would definitely do this given the chance to redo the paint work on my kit.

Also, if you want to do the grill paint scheme I would suggest do the middle bar like I did, I photoshopped a version with only the two sides painted and it made the car looks "chubby" whereas the horizontal piece painted made the front bumper looks "wide"

Hehe, I was standing beside the guy that took that pic.

you know to be honest, i dont care for them that much either. i used to like them, but to me in doesnt look right on a Z unless it is done right (like maximumsportz's ride).

i had mine smoked then got rid of them.

i feel the original chrome housings provided a better contrast with your wheels and emphasized the high details of your stepped wheel lip and work rivets; it's all about details. I still love the car though, haha

I like what you did with the rear bumper! Makes the single exhaust looks much better. Man, those TEs look rgeat too, one of the wheels I wish I have had a chance to try on the Zs I think you got a good plan, it'll look sweet!

I folded it, and ued a metal bracket with three or four screws through it to keep the bumper even. if there was no bracket the bumper could have bubbles between the screws, and there would not be enough material strength to keep it from ripping possibly.
