But you don't count!!!
Not everyone has 19 in wheels with an aggressive lip to beef up the look on the back of the Z.

Alot of folks don't have a spoiler to make a statement with their aftermarket ensemble...i think that looks fine.
However, the stock plus non spoiler look just...It looks too bare for some reason. This is just my perspective.

 

interesting you brought up the wheels, cars with Body kits and smaller wheels look even worse, the body kits makes a car look more massive, which makes the wheels look even smaller and more tucked inside the wheel well. Maybe it is just me

 

I plan on getting a Data Systems wing. I really like that one alot...subtle, without any upward angle..just flat and slightly longer than stock. and believe it or not, I am pretty conservative as far as *looks* are concerned. I do like to be different, but I'm definately not a fan of 3ft tall wings, body kits, CF hoods and all the bennihana cr*p...lol

 

The headlight overlays are tolerable, but the rears definitely detract from the Z's trademark rear-end - like bk_r0x said; looks like an AudiTT.

 

I do agree, look at 2003Z's car, he has that wing with a V1 lip and it looks very very clean. I might someday get the lip and see how it looks on my set up, I tend to also like a subtle lip without a wing as well as with a very mild/subtle wing.

 

I pulled the brake light reflector overlays off....

I saw it from an angle I hadn't seen before and it made the rear look frumpy....oh well, I'll take some more pictures when I get the wing installed and the PIAAs

Yeah I know exactly what you mean. I cringe everytime I see big kits on a car and no wheels to make up for it. On a Z, (unless you're totally concerned about performance and track use) you HAVE to go 18 or 19 or go home! Aesthetically ,our pronounced fenders are beggin for big wheels.

But back to my original point... your car looks good without a spoiler because you're rocking those mean wheels. I have wussy little stock 17's and I couldn't stand not having a spoiler. I was starting to have the "porsche boxster sydrome" wondering which end was the front of my car!

 

 

I dont like the headlights, but the taillights look good! I like it!

 

Question for all of those who have commented that they DO NOT like the rear brake light overlays.

Do you dislike them because they only covered the front half of the light, or did you dislike them because they were too dark?

I have a set of Bat's vinyl overlays that are "smoked" and not as dark as these on order and they cover the entire light.

Would your opinion change for these?

Like this:

 

I think the reason is some people had a very difficult time installing the taillight Overlays. It's not an easy kit to install, particularly the back pieces, but a few member son the board gave some excellent install tips. I doubt the darkness was an issue, because they're really not at all that dark. 6 out of 10 imo on darkness.

I disliked them because they only covered half of it. Dark-colored Zs look a lot better when the entire brake light is tinted. DrBonz, your Z looks even better, which I thought wasn't possible!

 

I love everything about the first two cars in this thread...EXCEPT for those headlight overlays. Those overlays make the Z look like the old bug-eyed wrx's.

 

I don't make an Overlay for the tails that cover just half the taillight.

The Z in that pic isn't mine. Mine is a Brickyard with: DR BONZ-Z on the plate. I was just using it as an example.

 

ZXiMan... i agree with you on how ugly the back tail light looks. i wanted to do the same exact thing so i give you much props. im sure it looks MUCH better in real life.
