The under plate of this style CF hood does not have clearance for the strut tower bar. I tooke it off with a screw driver and cut the low vent under plates on the top 2..

If your talking ebay than yes, he agreed to 225$ on the first day but it was at 280$ by the time I picked it up. The guy told me that he rather just deal local pickup with cash. He had no packing or anything to ship it.

Yea I am adding custom CF inserts to the hamberger top and bottom. Only went with the all white cus of posts on this forum. The grill and lip are segmented for painting dif colors. I would have done the grill in black but the paint guy said there is not a defined line to not paint the lip to. I have seen this done on cars without side skirts and rear done and it does not look good. The all white is the clean VIP look I am going for and it flows with the stock sides and rear.

Oh and I have only had this car a month so dont have cash for sides and rear atm.

Whats with all the emblems?

If you're not turbo, which you don't appear to be, I wouldn't recommend having a turbo emblem on your Z.

Yeah, I should have just looked at your signature and, you know, remembered the pictures of the front of your car I had looked at just seconds earlier, but all those emblems scrambled my brain!
