Its cool dude I didn't care for the fender, B pillar, hatch, and wheels. I know it sounds like your whole set up but hear me out. The kit looks great... if your car was gray or silver the exposed area's would look more natural.

So if it was gray or silver like your car it would look better. Ok.

I like 95% of it. White with bits of exposed CF is one of my favorite looks. The nicest 370 around here has the same scheme going on ad it looks amazing!

Of course the wheels and ride height need attention, but those have already been mentioned.

I'm curious why you painted the b-pillars white instead of doing CF or just leaving them back. They stick out like a sore thumb to me.

Also, the spoiler looks good by itself and from the side. However, looking from the back, you get a < > effect that would drive me nuts.

The B pillars where CF but as I could find nothing of quality it messed up the pillars. I was going to have them painted to match the roof but everyone primarly has CF or black. Not many have Pearl so in the end I decided this was one of the parts I was going outside the herd on.

I am planing on powder coating the rims pearl and keeping the ride hight till I change Jobs and move. If I lowered this I would simply be destroying my bumper on either the drive way at home or work.


Glad everyone likes the car but it is time for me to say goodbye to my350z. This forum pales in comparison to what it once was and thus has inspired me to wrap it up and say deuses. So peace out.

No thats not what I meant... And you know it ! I love the set up but would've done it all in white minus the B pillar. The hatch CF line is the one that really made me cringe because I personally love that hatch. I'm personally going away from the CF look with my new INGS kit when it finally arrives minus my diffuser, b pillar, and roof. I just think it would've looked better all on color.

I agree, this ties it all together...finishing it off.




A clean set of wheels would really tie it together, but of course you already know that. Good job man.
