I am getting ready to get my car painted from an accident.

HERE IS WHAT MY CAR LOOKED LIKE PRIOR TO THE ACCIDENT. I WILL HAVE THE SAME HOOD ON THE CAR. SO THAT WILL BE A REFERENCE AS WELL.



The bottom two pics are with my new AERO, This is what the car will look like when its done depending on what accent setup i choose.

Photo A is with just the inside part painted black.

Photo B is with more black accent

I am not sure which way to go. I wanted a general consensus from everyone what they thought.

Someone through out the idea of painting the roof black as well?

PHOTO A.



PHOTO B

 

can i vote for different bumper?

 

umm, me as well.

why would you get that terrible bumper? I mean, the JP type A you had before was terrible, but this is just making it worse.

the paint match you had was great though, very hard to find a decent paint match on PPW.

 

Def get rid of that bumper, I agree with those guys^^

 

Id go with the first before the second tho not my style

 

If you're going for maximum ugliness, either A or B will do nicely.

Why not step it up a notch and just get the whole Ihberdesign (however you spell it) widebody disaster?

 

I think there is more to this car than meets the eye...

Does it turn into a robot?

 

Listen, guys, you don't have to like the kit.

And I didn't ask for your opinion on how you felt about the kit.

I merely asking which black accenting looked better.

I realize that this kit isn't the norm but I don't follow the norms. I am not one to be a trendy person either. I have spent alot of time and money in my car. I am sure that alot of people who have something negative to say about mine probably cant even afford to mod theirs.

Didn't your moms ever say to you, if you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all.

I was looking for ONE OF TWO ANSWERS.

A OR B, THAT IS IT!

Now guys, without being an A$$, can I get some real answers.

Thanks!

 

Thanks, this is what I was looking for. I feel the same way. I just am on the fence about it.

I appreciate your honesty.

 

if you're going to paint the lip black, why not do the bottom half of the sides too? just below the crease. i vote B. and pay no mind to what others think of your car. if it still puts a smile on your face, go with it.

 

Ahh, thats a thought, I might have to get my guy to photo shop that so I can see what it would look like. Thanks for the idea.

 

Not feeling the kit, but I think the 1st pic looks the best! GL

 

There are too many openings on A or B for additional paint accents....maybe the roof only.
I like the side skirts in B....save money & get the side skirts to add to A.

 

A, The black accent will chip too easily. It's the lowest part of the bumper and where a majority of road rash occurs.

 

Stephen, I'd go with B

And to Stephen's defense.....actually the kits......I to thought the kit was butt ugly when I first saw a post on it but after seeing it up close on another friends car, it's not bad at all.

 

I like B better...and you'd have to see about the sides lower part lined up in black also...prob. would not look bad except that there's not a "line" already on the skirt to make black like there is on the front and back bumpers...

Sick kit though...put down the hater-ade people...This kit in person is top notch.

 

You know that you need to make the last call on it. But just remember that WE do not follow other people they follow us. Do and get what you want.

 

Dont like the kit much, But I would pick B

 

Stephen, I'd go with photo "A", but I would do the lip the same way as photo"B" and carry that to the skirts, painting the lower edge in black. IMHO photo "B" reduces the areas o fthe bumper that are body colored. Either way enjoy. You have a nice Z and that's ALL that matters.




Just remember: YOU drive a 350Z!!!!

 

I would honestly do the black accents if given the choice. It is the first area to get messed up though.
