That looks KILLER, dude! I am going for a similar look w/my PPW Z (tho bronze TEs instead of black). A couple questions for you:

1. What suspension are you running? How much drop?

2. Did you leave the front lip unpainted? or have it painted black?

3. The headlight overlays look MEAN! How noticeable is the decrease in light output as a result of having them installed?

Again, car looks SWEET!!!!!

That looks fantastic!!!

I would, however, think about shaving the hamburger. It sort of fights with the Mines duct IMHO.

First I tried to install it dry, but I found it difficult, so I used a spray bottle so I can move it around. Then you gotta a stretch it a little until it covers the headlight.

I was thinking about shaving the emblem off, but then I didn't want to take a risk and not be happy with the results. But if I ever go to the body shop again, I'll do that.

Did anyone ever think of doing a replica of the air duct, 500 for a piece of CF is a bit much.

i ordered this yesterday. it is a whole lot cheaper than the mines air duct. the CF goes with my Z's theme. i have CF eyelids and a CF jdm finisher on my veilside version 1 lip.

Carbon Fiber Air Intake Duct-$140.00 if ordered/Discounted from $163.80 if on hand





if you are interested take a look at this thread
