Good call on the cleanness of the widebody kit. Non functional intakes are ricey.
Youll have a car that Porsche and M-3 owners will be jealous of. Cant wait to see the finished product.

Thanks joust75
I like your idea but I don't think I am going to have any logos on the car.

Yea it does look like a vent but if you look at the picture below there is no vent. It is very funny how that looks so much like a vent. I could not get my flash to work and that may have helped to make it look like a vent. Let me asure you that if I was going to make a vent it would be a working brake cooler or something. I don't like non-working vents. hehe

I am as curious as to how they are going to look too. I have given the bodyshop, for the most part, full control on this car. The guys that are working on my car are some of the best around.

talk about scary. That thing is going to look great. All of the bare metal is kinda freaking me out though. Looks like great workmanship so far.

I'm definitely going to have to track you down one weekend in H-town and check that beast out when it's done... it might inspire me to be the first wide-body G!

I also think the 350z looks good just how they come. I just wanted to do something different with my Z. I did not want to use a "kit" that someone can just go and buy. My car is will be one of a kind until someone does what I did. I respect everyone’s comments about my car. I know not everyone is going to like it and that’s cool with me. All that really matters is that I like it.

Why don't you actually wait until it is finished to see what it willl look like. Then you can make an INFORMED opinion.
This widebody is going to be alot cleaner than the Top Secret Kit, with their unfnished looking front fenders.
