Yeah its dope.. you do have to buy a full do luck wide body kit tho as well.. factor in that a replica is still 2500 bucks.

Money sent..Stardast fenders are a go.

This is how I roll... saw pics of this car yesterday ..build changed in an instant.. money sent not 24 hours later

Route the filler over to where the tag is, then put it on a hinge like on the old cars.

^^^ You run on hopes and dreams. MY hopes and dreams.

Great choice on those Stardast overfenders bmccann.. They're going to look amazing

When you're done with it all you've got to drive out to SoCal and display it at a proper show... I'm sure many of us here would love to see it finished in person.

^^^ Have you considered the catapult method?



I'm sure you saw the gorgeous Powerhouse Amuse lugs that Mike waited months for... Genuine parts are worth the wait. But yeah... May have to wait until next show season to see it lol

Wait my friend Matt brought up a good point.. You're not doing the 370 facelift as well, right? You're doing the OG long-nose 350Z front..?

" Hey i want one too, where do i order exactly what you just bought and havent even installed or had press coverage on yet".
I have 6 PMs in my inbox asking the exact same thing lol. Meh.. when youve done a big build.. you know what i mean when i say this is BEYOND annoying . Is what it is, cant control it, but grrrr.
To those who just support and watch the build calm and casually.. thanks for the support.

Damn that sucks. I'll go back and clean up my quotes. It's BS that people feel the need to simply follow. I'm sure this will cause us to be left in the dark a bit but I can't wait to see your car finished. Keep up the fight man.

Thank God, I'm not a fan of the identity crisis facelift either in all honesty I'm glad you aren't going that route.

And that's sad to hear but can't say I'm surprised at all.. Keep it up man.. Us lowkey fans will always be here for support
