Not to change the topic but in that pic, doesn't it look like they ran over the little Nitto plaque under the front lips and bowed the lip???

Yeah, the doors, seen'em like 20 times. Seems to be an ongoing issue. They cool, fun, showoof material. From what I gather they are a pain for day to day parking...(so i've heard-NOT personal opinion). One thing I am not still clear on is if there is still modification needed for the install? As far as fender cutting or what not.?

I have that kit on mine now that i sold the car i still have the kit for sale. Check out my post. And they are not as bad as you think they are, they actually swing open pretty wide for the person to get in and out! the dealer didn't even KNOW that i have the kit on! Unless you are over 6' tall and weigh 400 lbs then we have a problem. But all in all the kit is awesome!But i had to get rid of my baby to make room for a new member soon. Needed rear sit.

I was thinking about this kit, but I would prefer a kit that allows the door to open up without having to open them to the side first (or at lease open them like at most a foot). I'm sure there would have to be a modification to the door pannel but I'm willing to do it. Does anyone know if this kit exist?

Right now I think the kit that's out you have to open it wide enough so that you don't even need to open it up...so why even have the kit then?

So....Does anyone know a kit that I explained in the first paragraph?

p.s. --> I think this is the point that "ZpEeDRaCeR" was trying to make.

ZpEeDRaCeR, I think these people are playing around with you because no one is answering your question. I did a little search and found this: https://my350z.com/forum/showthread....threadid=43931

hypersonicaz seems has something that resembles what we want. I too am searching for this conversion kit, but I'm going to wait until they have a full door conversion kit where they change the door for you also (I dont want to mess with the panel myself).

That's actually a pic of yoonakron's Z. I'd agree with you on having the panel already fabricated; I know Car Excess is currently working on one right now.

They're custom made 3 piece chrome rims by Raceline. They were made for my car to fit the widebody. The rear wheels are 20x11 with a negative offset. The front are 19x9.5 I think.
Anyway, Raceline will be releasing these wheels in the correct offset for the non widebody 350z soon.

The lips on these rims are huge. The valve stems are behind the spokes.
I know, I know.....We are working on some big brakes and a suspension.
