I will install my Borla True Dual exhaust on saturday! i am not happy with the battery/fluid cover trim panels, they will be repainted to match my wheels. painter decided to use a gunmetal color he had on hand instead of the graphite metallic(dodge color) i asked him to use. strut bar will be painted the same graphite metallic color. i am currently debating how to finish off my engine cover. i am thinking of having some air brush work done to it or some vinyl work.
future mods: i have some little things planned to do next, mainly cosmetic.

Careful with that exhaust. The tips are shorter than your bumper, so over time the bumper will melt/burn. You might want to get a shop to make some custom heat sheilds around it, or atleast look into it if the Borla doesn't fix it.

btw, do you guys think a CF hood would go well with my car. i'm talking about either an OEM or other style CF hood? my theme is PP white with carbon fiber/glossy dark gray but i am not sure if the CF hood would over do my theme or not! also thinking about a set of canards (specifically the ones on wing west's blown DB 350Z) and veilside graphics. but with the veilside graphics (in dark grey of course) i would have a vinyl shop continue the pattern through the area where the veilside decal would be. i also have thought of just painting the indentions on my OEM hood a color close to that of my wheels.

Tim'sZ: thanks for the compliment. i really like your Z, you are more of a master at mixing kits than i am! you have great taste!
vice86: you won't be dissapointed at all by the data systems wing. the quality is top notch and the fitment is out of this world! easy install, no holes necessary!!!
btw, i installed my borla td today. it was an easy straight forward install. fitment was really good too. it sounds really nice! just like others have said, the sound is a little different than stock. not loud at all!

well, i came across his name in a search on yahoo or something a while back. that is why i changed my screen name to ZEALOUZ(my license plate) on all the other boards i am on. i was thinking that my name was unique and original, guess i was wrong!
is it possible to have a mod change my screen name on this board to ZEALOUZ also?

If you get the CF hood, I think you should paint part of it. Just leave the center CF or something and paint the sides.. kinda like a CF racing stripe or something.... Looks cool, seen it done a few times.
