Do you plan on molding the rivets in the future? I think it would give it a much more complete look. But it still looks good like this.

Naw I'm not planning on molding it at all. To me the flares make it stand out more. Molding it would make the work put into it not noticeable. In my own opinion.

The sparco seats, harness bar, and widebody say "lets race."
But the heavy wheels, zero suspension travel, and stretched tires say "don't beat me up, just take my lunch money and leave me alone."

Yeah I should be on unified z/g. It's my daily and more for show purposes. I don't race, track, or attempt to drift. If you saw it you'd still turn your head to look at it regardless of what you may think my car was built for. I built it for me not the Forums.

Looked better the other way IMO. But if you like it that's all that matters!

Mad LOL's.
I liked the car before, it looked tough with the flares black. The picture with the red wheels looks amazing.

The look I'm going for was chopped by Vex. But I'll let him post his master piece photoshopped pics of my Z. Thanks Vex.
