well i am sure i will get hate for this but i went with a toyota super white.....paint code is 040 and it is way bright in the direct sun light.....i went with this color because I saw it on a supra and loved it. I think it looks amazing personally but thanks for all the comments guys.....I am sure you will see me more and more with tasteful mods in the future.
Mines is code 040 too...
People like it alot

the work done is perfect, congratulation.
but the Z looks like someone dumped 2 tanks of white paint on it. too much white to me (with the mirror panels, b pillar panels, and door handles)

Untint the tails and remove the license plate cover to add some contrast of other color. Then IMO it needs different wheels and better with a better offset for the body kit.

great looking car plus one of the best widebody kit you can get came out realy nice.
i have few points if i may point them to you
pros
body kit
rims
headlight
color
cons
-too much white maybe an carbon roof will fix that or over lay in black
-JDM rear tail light or non tinted tail light
-keep B pilar in carbon
-keep the door handle in factory color or maybe get GTR35 door handle ( seen them on g35 looks great )

you lucked out with the fatherinlaw help.
i'm a big fan of the white, but a little bit overkill on there - looks chalky.
when you do the carbon fiber (if you must - i'd do the kevlar rather than the traditional), it should go on the pillars, handles, sideview mirror panels.
I suggest painting them a dark metallic gray rather than carbon fiber.
Would put the taillights back to stock. the red would look better than blacked out - imo
get a little headlight work done (darken them up a little as the chrome doesnt help the white) and better wheels and you'll be golden.
Not hating - just the steps I would take from where you are at currently.
