Default Need reference images for a 3D Nissan 350Z

I have been searching through almost every possible 350Z site and have found that this one by far is the best one. Although there are a lot of images/videos I can barely find any that are detail shots. Apart from that, this is my question: Can somebody find the time to do a close up shot of the side mirror on their 350Z? If possible, the connection point of the side mirror and the door?

I am a 350Z fanatic I love this car and i would own one if i had the money. Yet I'm only 16 and the only way for me to go is to model it in 3D. Hopefully you guys/gals understand.

[Side Note] If people do respond and give me feedback then i will beg for other angles/shots of the car

This is how far i have gone so far....

Hope this helps:

What program are you using? Autocad?

Thank you 350ZTwinTurbo and ZZZealous007 for the response and the images.

@ 350ZTwinTurbo - I have the blueprints already but because i added some contrast and removed some gamma it distorted the image. Thanks

@ ZZZealous007 - That's the image i am looking for Is it possible for you (or anybody else) to take the same pic but of the front of the mirror?

I am modeling this in Lightwave 3D -www.newtek.com

Been using it for the past 9 months

these are also computer models

are you going to put kits on yours?
It would be nice for us to mix and match kits via computer models.
You would be the man if you made something like that for the Z community. For more info, you might be able to get some help in the Gallery section.

@ ZZZealous007 -Its a nicely modeled 350Z but there are some parts of the car that are a bit off - if you notice closely the door handle is not aligned with the door. The Headlights are not rounded enough. (Anyway......)

I am trying to finish up the outside - ie. windows, wipers, mirrors, etc. and then i am going to start putting up some kind of body kits on it. I'm gonna model the mirrors tomorrow after i get some sleep. Good night everybody.

[Side Note] As ZZZealous007 has mentioned that i might get more help in the Gallery section. Can one of the mods move this thread to the Gallery section? Please and Thank You!
