What bothers me is the way the paintline is just where different body parts end, looks like someone got lazy after all that great work. I think the blue shoulda been a nice diagonal line down the side or something...
i saw the car in person and i must say the body work and interior work was flawless. But they could have painted this car with another color scheme it sorta reminds me of Micky D's.
wow...those pics change my mind...the original picts make the yelow look very dull...i still like the color of the wheels and i love the yellow...just dont love yellow with the blue...bodywork is def nice but obviously that thing cant be a daily driver...can it?
This car was at Nitto's booth. I spoke to Ian from Car Excess. Very nice guy. I must say this car was done in very good job. The edge of the Veilside wide kit was done smooth. No waves. Interior was nicely done.

The first pics made the yellow look like ****-yellow (a la M2 or Volvo)...but the second hand of pics are alot closer to what it should be.
Isn't that yellow/blue Nitto's company color scheme??
I think the car looks sweet! Just my $0.02.
Oh, and as for the OU/A&M game . . . . damn I knew the Sooners were pissed about last year's loss at Kyle Field, but 77-0. DAMN. That was just an old-fashioned *SS-WHOOPIN'!!!!

Hey mike nice man, u used my left ova paint for the blue didnt u, haha. i cant beleive they got it ready i was positive they wouldnt be able to finish it. exspecially with the interior too. DAyum now i gotta talk to jerry see what he can do for me make me betta then u lol!
Yeah, that game REALLY didn't make my weekend. My car was broken into Thursday, and I found it Friday night. They got all my interior stuff. Gauges, turbo timer, stereo, etc... They popped the hood, but I guess they couldn't get it open. They would have had a field day.
That game was the worst in A&M history. We'll pull out of the rut soon... er, next season, maybe?

Hey Guys,
Sorry I haven't posted in so long. I litterally just got back from SEMA (Monday night 2000 hrs). It was a loooong ride. 46 hrs in a Ford F250 pulling a 44' trailer
Anyways, thanks for all the positive responses. As for the negative responses, I fully expected that also. The car does look quite a bit better in person though.
You would not believe the amount of work we got done on the car in the little amount of time we had. The car was painted inside and out in 2 days. The paint was still drying when the car was put in the trailer.
As far as the color scheme, the color it's going to be did not arrive in time from Germany. So we had to improvise. The blue accents were a "hey, lets try this" at the last minute.
We used every spare second of time we had to get the car ready, and actually rolled in to SEMA a day late! We had to get permission to get the car in, as the carpet had already been laid. Talk about a stressful event!
It's over now, and as far as I'm concerned, everything went better than expected. I now have several sponsors lined up and the car should be really awesome at the beggining of the year.
We have the Veilside Version 3 w/ carbon fiber wing at the shop, but decided last minute not to use it. We already have a different spoiler lined up and it should really add a nice touch to the car.
The wheels on the car were sposored by Raceline, and look incredible in person. 305/25/20 rear w/ custom offset to fit the wide body. 265/30/19 in front.
I'll post more pics soon, but I'm going to rest up first.
Oh yea, it was really nice meeting all you forum members at SEMA. And I have to say that the 350Z was very well represented!
