my goal is not to add crap to the car that will make it look cheesy. i just wanted the car to be a sleek black color from front to back with out any distortions. The silver door handles for example. If i were to get something i would have wanted it to be all CF not just the stick ons, that may peel off at high speeds on a hot a$$ day.

Here's a pic of the Z now


Black rims coming soon.

Yup thanks Rick

Here is the only pic I have of them, I can get a better one in the daylight later today if anybody wants them.

This is the kit from the zstore and I was very impressed with the fitment even the materials they send with the kit for attaching the pieces. Trust me these things aren't coming off.

Please excuse the dirty car and crappy pic.

They still appear to be overlays, just one piece.

to the people above me..

he said: "Ture hard cover" (i copy and pasted)
they are not real handles, they are a one piece cover like Spoils said.

However, Im a hypocrite and I want this CF piece. haha. (i always said I would never wear a CF cover.... oh well)

why mister why?

IMO those are hideous...actually CF anything without a accent to compliment it/ and or weight reduction is hideous. The whole point behind CF is to lose weight, not to make your door handle "cooler". Just go get it painted black with a thick clear coat so it will stand up the the opening and closing of the door everyday.
