Im not a fan of decals. in select few cases Ill accept them if they serve a strong purpose(ex. performance nissan). but aside from that perhaps a quick history lesson will explain my opinion.

in the 70's as emmision laws crushed the american muscle there answer was if they cant make the cars fast, theyd make them look fast. thus they used decals everywhere.

their a joke; an illusion to cover up the real truth. the Z doesnt need them, it is fast.

not that I think I can sway your opinion, just sharing.

Hate the graphics, but that's just my opinion. Rims are nice. Do whatever makes you happy.

The checkers are a little too busy for me. I would try something a little simpler. If you like those colors, I would probably go with something like this (sorry for the quick chop, but you should get the idea):

Or even toned down more with subtle monotone colors:

I like the original decals, but the red stands out way too much. Maybe go monotone, but start with a ligher blue instead of red.

very good points from everyone. thanks for commenting. i've seen the graphics in game ONLY. not in real life so i'm not sure what im gonna do. i think that monotone wouldn't be too bad. my photoshop isnt really too great. it needs to be a lot more smooth and flowing. i'll see what i can do. i want to keep the entire sorta "connected to the ground." that is one reason why i like the body kits that are very simple but extend the body to the ground. also a reason why i love the stock spoiler and not really any of the aftermarket ones i've seen. the graphics are still a toss off. i'll keep working on em. any more suggestions would be cool. thanks guys!
