agree with most, the rear end of the car is completely disgusting, the front is nice but wouldnt matter how nice it looked, that back is of the ugliest ive ever seen. Sorry dunno what you were thinking...

I like the diffuser and exhaust, I think if you were to get a more flush spoiler, and put the stock tail lights back on, it would look great.

Is it me or is the front bumper not color matched at all? It's about 2 shades lighter.

Yes you are correct in regards to the spoiler for the coupe not the roadster, strosek has a similar design for the roadster, but mounting points are completely different. Normally I love the strosek spoiler, but because of the wrong install on your Z it just looks horrible.

Out of curiousity where did you source the spoiler because if you wanna get rid of it I may just take it off of your hands.

Spoiler loss
Tails LOSS
Fairlady emblem on the side of the car LOSS
Body kit with stock wheels loss
Dual spoiler loss
Color matching front loss
fitment of sides loss
Lots of losing on this car man.
You need to work on it quite a bit more before you unveil again.

The Strosek spoiler is design so you can adjust the angle of the spoiler . It has 3 different angles . The reason the body shop chose that angle on my car to get maximum down force at high speed. I like personally like the angle seen on Strosek web. It might not look the greatest the front bumper and the rear diffuser was chosen for more functional than look.

I like the V3 on the ZR but yea the tail lights with that 3d bubble is sad. But I would stick to what you like and not what everyone else says unless you plan on showing your car in a comp. I have the same aftermarket Z emblem on my V3 but I painted mine to match the car. You might want to consider painting it as well as the finish of the crome is very cheap and will wear out fast.

I expected the criticism that is why I posted those pictures. I have put back the stock light until I can get the 07 led stock tail lights. The reason why I chose those bubble tail light for its brightness because most of my driving is at nights. I agree on your idea about those Z emblem because Fairlady emblem are all fading, I was thinking removing them too. I saving money to get the Nismo Z edition side skirts. It is a little pricey but I like OEM better over after market. It doesn't fit right. It took a long time to find the rear
Strosek spoiler so I might keep that spoiler until I can find a different one. The ZR back is so flat unlike the coupe when the roof is up that why I needed a spoiler that goes up to the front a little to fill in the space from the trunk to the roof. It is very hard to find the spoiler for ZR. There is very few mostly made to fit coupe.

Much better!! OEM lights do make a difference on how the roadsters look. While you're figuring out which spoiler to go with, have you looked at Stillen spoilers? My boy has one on his roadster, and it looks much better in person. In regards to side skirts, I think V2 USDM sides match the V3 bumper better than the Nismo V3 sides. Keep us updated with your project.

Looks surprisingly good. The V3 front really flows with the ZR it seems. Just loose the tails and the wing and you're set.
