i like them but at the same time...im not so sure about them

but props to you for doing something different, and it looks pretty good for what it is
Same here, something different I guess to offset the trendy ricer style roof.

in no particular order

1. fog lights

3. neon
4. fake fender vents
5. pep boys chrome wheels.

edit, i left one thing out .... eye lids.
Fog lights are hit and miss IMO
1. Paint hood/roof black or unpainted CF panels.
2. Huge wing/riced out body kit
3. Strobe or Glow lights
4. Fake fender vents
5. Pep Boys, ADr, XXR or Tenzo wheels.

Hmm...not too bad I'd say~ I think yellow might be a better contrast than orange for the JDM look~ Not RICE imo, I've seen plenty of worse stuff done to a Z~ Gd Job for a personal idea/taste

IMO it just looks tacked on to the car and doesn't flow. Im not saying all fog lights are bad, but on a Z, it takes a certain look to pull it off cleanly.

If i were to do fogs, Id have a strosek front bumper and put the fogs into the two circular holes in the front. Now that would be a VERY clean fog light setup.

+1 very true, I'm not saying that you're talking about my car nor setup, but for my case in particular, I didn't want to drill my NISMO OE bumper and that's why I decided to put it where is it now. I got my idea from this, pls take a look and I think that it is a VERY clean fog light setup like u r saying now. At least I think that it is a VERY VERY CLEAN setup. IMO.

I think this looks pretty good. Yellow was the way to go with HIDs, so good call.

Would i do this, no, but either way props. Like other's have said, best fog light setup ive seen on the Z besides the JP Type A bumper fogs.

I am surprised to say that I actually like it. In the first pic with the bumper cover off the car I wasn't on board but once hung I think it actually looks pretty good.
