mazzoo,
I like the wing a lot. Reminds me of a 911 Turbo. If you're looking for a nice noticeable color, I suggest something like techno violet, or a candy apple red, maybe a gunmetal with blue and green pearl...

i like the wing..as fo the color, the crazier the car is the better it will be with a dark or non-showey color
dark blue is cool...howbout a really metallic white..yellow is too overdone
anyway...keep us updated

You should paint it a nice deep glossy pearl white. i havent seen any show Zs with this color and it looks great.
Think pikes peak white but deeper and creamier.

Well Nissan is coming out with yellow for '05 so you probably want to avoid that. Orange is close to LS.
Silver is boring.
Lime green, uhhhh, no comment
There was a program called sswheel that allowed you to play with colors on a Z but I can't find it for download anymore. I can upload it somewhere but it's ~40MB.

Ok some new pictures of the inner back fenders. For people that don't know the back fenders of the 350 have 2 parts to them, the inner fender and the outer fender. The inner is the wheel well and the outer is the nice part you see. 
This is before the welds were grinded smooth and the metal was grinded clean.

Shweeet!!
Looks like the fenders are coming along nicely!
That Wald Wing, however is FUGLY!! I realize that since they are your sponsor you have to put it on... but man, that is just hideously ugly. Looks like it belongs on an Evo or WRX or something. Definitely NOT a Z.
The Wald Sideskirts and Rear Valance are BADA$$ looking though!! Do you have any pictures of the front? I am curious to see what that looks like

Sorry, I don't know for sure, but there have been some posts on this and they seem to think so

Is that true? I looked on the Nissan site and couldn't find anything about it. If that is the case I may reconsider from Redline to Yellow.

I'm way jealous of your widebody... but I'm doing this Wald kit w/o the wing since it's nasty... gonna keep the wing simple... maybe a Stillen type 1 wing. Anyhow, I'm so bagging my ride. I want it to hit the ground when I get out and set the alarm. I want the remote to let the air out. I'll put up picks when it gets done. It won't be til the end of summer. I'm still trying to build my new business for now. Check out v1direct.com for your Wireless Acc. Electronics. Ink and Toner Needs. MotorSports coming to v1direct.com soon.
