do side scoops exist for this car? i remember seeing one body kit that was like 3 grand that put side scoops on the 350z. i'm also familiar with the "top gun" side scoops but im undecided on what thatd actually look like.


i know its a long shot, but does anybody have any links to maybe a body kit for this? if it exists? if not, someone should invent it and theyd make alot of proft

hell no no Borla on mine.

the 'screaming exhuast' thread was about a S2k iirc, with the video sped up to make it sound crazier.

just custom piping with a Vibrant muffler.

The sides look cool..maybe a little more subtle, but a trick alternative to a fugly widebody kit..it be cool if the air flow could be funneled some way.

wow and I thought ricers couldn't do many more pointless things to their car. That looks freaking fugly. Side scoops are for cars with rear or mid engine mounting anything else and you're just retarded.

well merlin considering i came from owning a 2005 mustang, and i havent done ANYTHING to "rice" out my 07, i guess you can't call me a ricer the point is, i like the looks. did you know at least 2 out of every 5 people who manage to see my car dont even know what it is?

i like the attention of a nice looking car, and besides, side scoops are not only for rear engined cars, they also can work as a stream of air for the breaks. i guess things like side scoops arent for everybody XD
