Had the Vertex lip put on the car yesterday. Took some shots with my iPhone. I also had the front reflectors smoked and the emblems painted magnetic black to match the car.

I've had a lot of requests for pics of this lip to see fitment so sorry for the barrage of pics ;p

 

Close up of emblems...

 

Fitment pics...

Last one looks like the paint is messed up near the lip. It's just a reflection of the white lines in parking lots.

 

Last set of fitment pics...

 

i like how the emblem and 350z paint. if i were you, i would paint the black chrome

PS, Z letter is upside down

 

Oh wow, you're right. lol. Looks like I'm making a call to the shop tomorrow. I didn't even notice that.

 

Looks good, you should do your headlight too to finish up the front, not smoke them but take them apart and paint the insides

 

Thanks. I keep debating whether or not I want to paint the headlights. I don't like the 06's when everything in the housing is painted. I've been trying to find pics of different styles to see if I like anything.

I'm also worried about resealing them incorrectly.

 

Looks good, we need to do something about that fender gap and painted OEM's

 

Those two problems are directly related.

I didn't want to get rims because I don't want to lower the car. I don't want to lower the car because the roads in Atlanta suck. Especially now with this lip, there's no way I have room to lower the car and not shatter it into a million pieces.

Honestly, I love the look of the stock rims. I may consider swapping them out, but at this point it's just not practical.

 

It's all good, no rush to do anything.

The roads are bad here as well but I just don't go into certain areas and try to plan out my routes. Once you get used to driving around with a lip on your car and feel comfortable with it you can start to think about getting wheels.

Best of luck

 

Looks good..are your wheels powdercoated?? or just DIY black?? Looks good regardless..its growing on me thats for sure~ Keep it up

 

Had em powder coated. Still no problems with cracking after a year.

I guess if they crack, I'll HAVE to get rims ;p

 

the powdercoat still looks fresh. and the lip fitment came out great.

 

looks very nice! i myself have the same lip

from one vertex lip owner to another... clear bra the lip!

its a rock chip magnet.. at first i just resprayed once in a while at the shop but it racks up fast! i regret that i just didnt clear bra it when i first got it installed and painted!

 

I like it, good job man

 

One of my favorite lips for the car. It is nice and subtle.

 

Had it for two days...already scraped. No visible damage. Told ya our roads suck ;p

 

where did you get your wheels powdercoated?

 

Looks nice.
