John- I'm with Aloha. You know my stance on the wing, same as I've telling you for months. The rest of the kit looks very nice.

whatever and failsaf: well i decided to put the rear wing on, just to complete the r-tune look.

anyways, just came back from the bodyshop and they have to do a little more prep work to the body kit parts that need to get painted. a few pinholes needed to get filled. if i would of kept it all cf it would of been ok and i would of been able to just slap it on the car. but i think the all cf look on my car would look tacky. only the lip parts need to be shown in cf i think. anyways, i won't have time to slap the kit on until wednesday or thursday of next week. so till then, ttyl.

car will look like this pic.

what do you guys think about the nismo graphics? maybe next week too!!!

moodie - i can't wait to see the body kit on my car. it's like having a new car again.

and when the graphics come in, it's like having a new car again too. those nismo graphics change the car a lot and makes it look very aggressive.

can't wait to see you and the bay area guys again. i really miss seeing you guys.

also, there is a pretty good # of 350z and g35 coupe group in sac now. hopefully we can all meet up together for a big meet!!!!!!!

jfive - lol!!! hahahahaha!!!!! your killing me!!!!!!!!! i hope you find the right kit or front lip for your car. i know you have the modification bug like me and want to buy something for the car. but i told you my stance on things, wait until you really like something alot, then get it!!!!! i've always liked the nismo r-tune look because of the carbon fiber on the body kit and the kit is not too aggressive, but with the nismo graphics that is a different story.



I FORGOT TO GIVE PROPS TO BIGBADBLACKTRACK.
if it wasn't for albert for the photoshopping, and both ben and albert for their thoughts, i would still be thinking on what kit to get for my daily driving needs.

konverter,

yes, i am putting the rear nismo spoiler to complete the look of the nismo r-tune.

hey konverter, don't you have a replica nismo wing? so you like it and how is it holding up?

dont mention it! you know were always down to help a fellow Z owner. youre one of the few people that understand that modding a car is more of a passion rather than a hobby. Big **** indeed... besides you need a real cool ride to deliver it to the ladies. Hahaha.

Now its been a week wheres those darn pics!? We are all eager.

I've been looking for you. You must have changed your name since you posted that gallery. Anyway, I'm very interested in this kit, but I haven't seen any up close pictures to show the quality of the fit and finish.

Could you send me some, along with your comments, good and bad, with the VIS kit. How long have you had it? How has it been holding up?

John, how's your installation going? Do you think it will be done tomorrow?

Thanks in advance,

Roark

hi roark, brought my car to the bodyshop today.

it should be done this afternoon (hopefully).

i saw my painted parts this morning and i was excited.

believe me guys, if you like the nismo 350z, then you will like the outcome.
