I'm only 18, so getting a 370z will kill me financially.

Then don't spend 4k to make your 350 look like a 370.

...and there's the kicker.

Everyone is telling you not to do this.

If $8K will "kill you financially," $4K on a body kit is beyond ridiculous.

Imo leave your 350z headlights the way it is. Save your money for something more practical.
You're 18, so unless you're parents are throwing money at you. Spending $4k on a complete headlight conversion to make your 350z look like a 370z, would not be worth it.

Does the kit come with instructions? I would think the information on how to install the headlights would come with the kit. It doesn't look like the 370Z lights come with the kit so buying them will probably set you back another $1000. This project doesn't seem to make economic sense.

Money is still an issue, it's just your parents' issue. Goof.

Wrong answer. I'll put it another way newb. You are going to rear end someone in that Z or drift damage it so why waste your parents money. I think it looks great. I love the 370z lights and dislike that *** of them. This would make a cool car. But not for me and not for you dreamer.

There's no problem with that, Phannfan. It's your car, do what pleases you. We were just posting our opinions. The kit does not look bad at all and I'm sure it will look nice if done properly.

Remember, when you start adding exterior modifications (kits), if you do not have a nice set of wheels and a reasonable drop it will not look very good. If you do not already have a set of wheels, keep those extra expense in mind.

Please go through with this kit, let the haters hate, prove all of us wrong. Besides, why buy a 370 when a 150 shot is so much cheaper?
