I don't care for the stand outish air duct. When I get my V2 Bumper, I'm getting the V2 air duct. Less intrusive and very low key. blends in quite nicely

Good job on buying an orange Z... They arent too common... However; I don't agree with painting areas you feel should be accented "GLBL..."

If I may... How old are you?

Perhaps it would have an influence on your decision on the modifications you deem tasteful... In no way am I trying to insult you... It is your car... and you may jack it up as you please..!

Let's say you bought an Amuse body kit (or other tasteful Body Kit of your choice).. Got rid of those Airducts... and get the roof painted correctly, sand down your handles back to silver (or paintmatch if you must)... and remove those black emblems... Perhaps we may have a winner here towards a classy and tasteful approach...

What's next on the 1337 mod list...?
Blacked Out Rear Tails..?
Blacked Out Side View Mirrors..?
Blacked Out Stock Side Skirts..?
Blacked Out Rear Blinkers..!?
Black and Orange Interior...
or perhaps Blacked Out Rims with Orange Tires...?

It is a 350Z... Not a Chevrolet Cavalier/Cobalt...

Carry on ol' Chap!

Cheerio!

I remember when u posted when u did ur bumper, roof and added the eyelids.. I still think u should remove the eyelids, but i like where the cars going. You should definitely paint match the ducts tho for sure.. Naturally the solar can look rice if you aren't careful, the eyelids are really pushing it. How old are you btw

Not trying to put you down but chances are if most people don't like something on your car its because it probably doesn't look good, obviously i don't expect you to go running to change it but you don't want to be know as the guy with the nice car and the ugly dual cf intakes, + that color stands out by itself .

IMO, everything looks really good i wish my z was that color but the cf intakes look a little of the ugly side.

Not digging the stock wheels, or the nostrils, HKS is one of the best looking exhausts for the Z but the sound is bleh to me.

Love the black roof. I want to do that to my redline.

Can you post pics of the rear diffuser from normal viewing angles and from a bit farther away? I have always liked that diffuser.

I like how you don't care what other people think.

Express your creativity however you please...

Not bad looking at all. But I have to agree, -1 on the air ducts. Maybe if they were painted to match. But not a fan of them at all. Although, it's your car, your money, and you see it everyday, so do what makes you feel happy at the end of the day.

I thought the point was to blend them and make them less noticeable..

These pictures are only as a reference as to what an "orange" car can look like and still have a classy apeal to it...

Just for you to get an idea of what I'm talking about bro...

It looks like your intentions are good.. You need to have a goal before you start doing random builds and mods... I didnt mean to sound rude or harsh... But if you post pictures on here, and people bash them, perhaps there is a reason for it... Ease up on the defensive... No one is here to argue...! Just trying to help!

looks like you're doing a lot of inexpensive mods first. my suggestion to you would be: instead of doing a bunch of little mods, save your pennies and do one expensive mod thats worthwhile to you. maybe coilovers, wheels, brakes, or engine mods.

i'm not a fan of the nostrils but since you cut your bumper, there's not much you can do about it short of getting a brand new bumper. the painted door handles are going to chip. you should have gotten them powder-coated as that would be more durable.
