That really looks good. Goes well with the rest of the body. Sides tied it together.

I think it fits well w/ the greddy sides..the vents are roughly the same size...good job. it look even more pimp to fill in the upper c-speed vent on each side.

I love the Chargespeed rear bumper! I've thought about getting that one myself. How was the fitment?

I was told by the bodyshop that the fitament was dead on. The only thing that need modification was the area by the license plate. There is a gap that needed to be filled in and a mounting bracket had to be fabricated for the plate itself.

The Chargespeed is my favorite rear bumper for a stock bodied Z. Would love to have one but concerned they couldn't match the paint good enough.

May sound crazy but that all makes sense and flows almost perfect.. Paint looks a bit off on the skirts though.. maybe

+1 for the Chargespeed. It's my favorite rear bumper.

Looks great! I have also considered getting this rear to go with my Greddy sides, but my car is black and all of the details might just get lost.

^^ Same feeling here, love the bumper but I have a black Z also, and wonder if its worth it without the shadows from the vents as they would not really show well with black. Still might go for it tho!
