Just wanted the opinion of the forum members on something. I've got a black Z with the shine amuse replica kit. And i'm going to be using the car for timeattack this year and next, so i wanted to spruce up the exterior a bit, and i was wondering what you guys thought of the nismo graphics kit (only using the stripes and hood decal). Any thought are appreciated.

Attached are a couple of pics of the car (before everything got painted)

Looks good as is, IMO the nismo vinyl would ruin it

crappy fitment on your kit also mismatched on the color, very easy to see. Too bad too, cuz that's a very nice body kit. Whassup with the unpainted wing, are you just test fitting it ?

Try a big Nismo windshield sticker if you want, see if that does the trick. If not, then powdercoat your wheels black and do a red time attack stripe to match your brakes.

obviously you guys didn't read the full post. These pics are all before the car went to paint. The fitment looks off because it's all being held with only a couple of screws, so that it's easier for the body shop to remove everything. I assure you the fitment is spot on.

The windshield has to be left for the timeattack logo, and i'm not going to powdercoat the wheels, because i love the gunmetal colour.

+1. I think you should just leave it after it gets painted.

Leave as is. Looks awesome.

I don't think graphics would look good at all.

Maybe drop it some more, an get an aggressive hood. Also adding the diffuser to the front end would help as well.

Other than that, car looks gorgeous.

I was gonna mention this. Clearly didn't look painted. Anyone with a brain should have noticed that, along with the absence of screws on the upper corners to the fenders.

If it's a look your after your good to go...

I wouldn't worry to much about the outside for a timeattack

Yeah i'm putting on the coilovers this week. hopefully on thursday if they arrive, and i will lower the car a tad more. I also have a split carbon fiber splitter on the front and the carbon air duct. I will be changing the hood out for a carbon piece, but i want to keep it OEM looking because i like the way the amuse front flows with the stock hood.

If anything, I would get the amuse splitter and fill that hole in your bumper

The hole is filled. A carbon fiber air duct. And there is a splitter on there now. Just not the amuse one, as i have "other" plans for the underside of the car

So i've still got the itch for graphics. I know, some of you think it's rice. I was wondering what the nismo RS concept graphics would look like (without the RS concept writing).
Anyone here able to photoshop the graphics onto my car?

Also, does anyone know a decent graphics shop that would be able to replicate all the graphics (sides, hood, roof, back)
