I'm not a big fan of headlight/taillight covers, but those look pretty good with that bumper cover.

me no likey.

looks extremely stuck on. it clearly covers the reccessed area of the housing, like functional area and you can see in under it.

also... wouldnt they glow at night right over the HID like that, and also kill your light pattern...

those might be the Prodrive wheels?

If that's the eyelids... I guess some bonnet manufacturer might want to integrat those eye lids with the bonnet (hood) when they produce those, so there will not be two extra lines at the front end.

cheers,

Meh, looks ugly.

They look pretty cool... until they become common, that is. I see he's got a drilled front bumper... on an aftermarket bumper that is... (why?)

I think they have to drill it because it's a japanese Z and they need to fit the Number plate

I've never been a huge fan of eyelids but i'd be more inclined if they were a little more subtle on the Z...something along the lines of this...
