are these old or blind men complimenting your Z. I'm sure the amount of negative compliments surpass the positive compliment given to your Z.

OP check out the site and you will get an idea of what a well put together 350z looks like.

Everything has to flow together and nothing on your Z accomplishes this.

lol, that is actually good price.500-600 for a good quality paint job with good paint on the front bumper. if not, you'll end up with paint that gets chipped up by rocks and debris easily.and telling from your taste, they will have to put a lot of type making it fit and smoothing out the bumper

We're not here to put you down because you didn't created this. Whoever you got this Frankenstein from go back and knock some sense into him!

If I were you I would get the V2 front kit, take off the headlights cover you don't need glasses, change the hood, and we are not joking about this STAY AWAY FROM CHROME! I really want to see the interior now out of curiosity.

Hey guys. I bought the OEM 06 bumper from ebay and prolly get it sometime late next week. In the mean time Im looking to get a lip. Do you guys think a carbon fiber lip will look good with brickyard? also if i get a CF lip(v1 or mines) do I have to get it clear coated or is it good to go? how much does clear coat cost for a lip?

If i dont go with CF how much will it cost to paint a lip?

Evo-R make's a good replica of the Mines lip. I've personally had 2 Evo-R's, Top Secret, and a Chargespeed Bottomline... though my CS is my personal fave the fitment of the Evo-R is stellar out of the box.

They're made in the same place... it was said that Mines would hand pick which one's they badged.
Here's some fitment pics of the Evo-R on one of my old set ups:
