Default My 350z build

Hi guys, just had a few things for the 350 landed today

professor sp1 wheels , original Ings rear bumper and side skirt (i dont have anything against copied bodykits, its just that after you include shipping to New Zealand theres not much price difference between a copied and original piece ) , RSW carbon pieces , Blitz rear spoiler from Evo - R.

still waiting on Nismo V2 front , blacked out head lights from cin city , im possibly going to change my rear bumper to chargespeed instead of using INGS


p.s link to my fortune rx-7 build up for anyone interested in watching : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DzHEs1kEMU

New Zealand? Wow, I never thought of how much different it must be getting aftermarket parts in other parts of the world. How much does shipping run?

I think you should def switch the Chargespeed rear for the INGs+1. I used to loved the Ings+1 bottom rear diffuser-looking piece, but that indention at the top near the connection of the hatch is ugly IMO

V2 Front + Ings Side + Chargespeed Rear = pure SEX!!
