Well, after 6-1/2 years of ownership (I actually pre-ordered March, 2002) I decided to change the look of my car. I didn't want to go too extreme as I didn't want to ruin the lines of the Z but I did want a more aggressive look. I am very happy with the outcome.

Thanks to European Motocars in Middletown, CT for the great job they did. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for bodywork in CT.

Also, thanks to my wife for putting up with my zaniness as I must've had her look at over 1,000 pictures before I made a decision.

Okay, here are the exterior components:
Veilside V1 Front Lip Spoiler
OEM Front Bumper Repainted with grill also painted Chrome Silver
Seibon Carbon Fiber VT Hood Painted
Ings+1 N-Spec Hybrid Aero Side Skirts and Rear Bumper
Stillen Type 1 Rear Wing Spoiler

Hope you enjoy the pics.

 

And for my final project, rear spoiler emblem:

 

very tasteful

 

Looking good!
What a way to keep your car fresh.

 

what kinda wheels are these?

 

iForged Aeros (brushed aluminum face)

 

very nice! A+ for u!

 

Your car looks great. I think you should remove the grill in the front bumper.
Totally. Just gut it. Toss it in the can. If you feel like spending any additional
coin, buy the '06+ headlights. Overall your car is definitely top tier.

 

What a sleeper! You can't even see the intercooler!

good work!

 

Nicely done.

 

I like the '06 lights but $1200 for them is a little too steep for me right now.

If I were to gut out my front bumper grill I'd have to remove my laser jammer and I don't want to do that.

 

Clean man, clean. Chrome silver is my fav and it looks so good when it's not overdone.

 

I really like the look. Everything flows together really well - nothing looks tacked on. Very slick. I really like the angles in the second pic.

 

very nice i wish u left the vents on the hood carbon fiber but everything looks nice

 

Very nice!!!!

 

It looks alright...not my taste, but to each their own. The back left corner of the hood doesnt look like it fits properly. Wheel offsets could be better.

 

Looks pretty clean. I was gonna say the rear seems like its missing something, like a badge or something, but you included a post with that badge, so..

 

I don't really like that hood... your car is really nice and smooth and the hood is very busy. I think the '07 and up hood would look really nice and smooth.

Overall good though!

 

Thanks for the comments.

The Seibon hood is a little off on the passenger side but there is nothing I can do about it. I guess it's part of the risk of buying aftermarket. I've actually seen worst fitments of carbon fiber hood than this one. It actually looks worse in pictures than in person.

I know the look of the VT hood is not for everyone but I like it's aggressive look. I thought about leaving the vents with the carbon fiber look but after looking at pics. I liked the look better of a completely painted hood.

My wheel offsets are:
19x8 +18 Front (245/35/19 Tires)
19x10 +29 Rear (285/35/19 Tires)
I did have to get narrow spacers in the front to (I believe 3/16") to clear the Rotora calipers)
Do these look wrong?

 

The car looks great.. Im thinking the 06HIDs would make it sickerrrrrrrr!!

The offsets dont look as you noted honestly, because +18 would almost touch the fender.. Mine does..

Thats the only reason I didnt opt for iforged.. They dont tell you the offset nor do you really get a choice..
