Somebody please point this guy to the closest airport in Arizona because that Z looks like it's about to take the f*** off....lol J/K.... Lose the rims and go with a staggered setup...then you'll be doing a whole lot better. IMO

nice pics. If you don't take criticisms too well, stop reading here.







If you want some opinions (given you posted it on a public forum), then I would say...
1. Don't like the grille.
2. Hate the rims.
3. Detest the wing.
4. With such a crazy kit, DON'T just do the front. As others said, finish it off.
5. Lose the licence plate.

But of course...to each his own I guess...

I don't shy away from criticism, but in response.

1. Me either, grill is gone.
2. Agreed, rims are as good as gone. It's the next thing I do.
3. Personal preference, I love the wing.
4. Also agree, the rest of the kit is in my garage and waiting to get finished.
5. Personal preference, but thanks for the opinion.

The car is a work in progress, obviously not done yet. I appreciate the comments made about ways to improve rather than the useless ones. Also, I did a quick photoshop of the rims I am looking at replacing with. Probably go with 20x8.5 and 20x10 to get the staggard effect.

I would like your car if it had BLACK WHEELS - the CHROME WHEELS don't tie in anything! I would also like to see racing seats in YELLOW. Don't like the headrests.

That looks great bro, good choice, once the kit is on, with those wheels, and finally F/I you are going to have one of the nicest Z's around, I'm sure if you have those wheels, full kit, F/I, people would take the wing in a lot better...I know I would

wow guys lay off a little bit.... damn i think he gets the point. I mean **** most people on here dont have **** done to there car. No need to beat it into him about his grill and his wing. If he put it on there then hey he must like it. I think its orginal looking man. I Like the exotic extreme look. You went away from the vizage kit and vertex kits like a lot of people have. If your happy man stick with what it... im sure there is some good money put in that car. keep it up

I'm not personally crazy about the wing... but that's just my preference. Here's an idea for ya....



I couldn't decide on anything for the back and I didn't want to take too much time on it.

the wheels are R25 Ro_JA by RAYS Engineering and I found the pics I used here: http://www.350zonline.com/gallery/album629

good luck with the build

The wing is ... O.K.
The wheels must be black
The seats should be Sparco
Finish the kit

Wow, those rims look great too...may have to look into those also. I also like what you did with the side skirts. Thanks for taking the time to create the PS.

So, why WOULD you come on this site expecting total agreement?

I think that the car doesn't look that bad. Even though I am interested in the complete opposite, performance >looks , I think it looks alright. First off I have always hated the Veilside kit, but with the overall look of the front with yellow, it really seems to fit what he is goin for. I will agree however, that the chrome rims gotta go, spoiler ,I know my opinion, but to each his own. Anyway keep it up.

there is a difference between people opinions and peoples rude comments. such as wow i think i threw up in my mouth a little bit, or things such as wow why would you do that to your car... drive that thing to a airport. Im sure that guy put some good money into his car... say if you did that and you had 15 replies saying that **** to you... how would you feel? feel like you just damned waisted a lot of money. We all do these things for our car for us, and for people.... Thats the whole point of a Z club. to make us stand out, for us to work TOGETHER to help. not be *******s. so instead of everyone bashin his car that he worked hard on lets give him some damn credit for what he has done

a LOT better! Also check out the Volk SF-Challenges in black. Dunno if it's something you are looking for, but I think it would look great.

Z owners are hard to please when it comes to looks...i say just roll with the punches...performance guys always bash the aesthetic mods whenever possible...i've gotten used to it
