Bull's Top Secret Widebody/Turbonetics 350z
That is the nicest Z I have seen. Wow, great job.

Those and a titanium tip exhaust would be killer.
Everyone says get rid of the amber in the headlights... but I think it looks awesome, I say leave it. Or maybe go with 06 head and tail lights...

It looks STUNNING, but with that drop and tuck... I don't see anyway you could drive this on the street without worrying constantly about damage being done..
FYI: That paint job is just beautiful..

damn very nicely done, very tasteful, what size are the rear wheels. a buy here has the mastergrade widebody kit and has 20x13s in the rear. those dont look quite as wide, i wonder if the MG kit is wider than the TS kit.

The ONLY thing I can possibly think of is a subtle silver pinstripe at the paint line. Just to make that break a bit more crisp.
This car is proof that subtle can be stunning.

There's already a ghosted pinstripe on there. Its very subtle, but it doesn't quite pop as much in the pics. Take a closer look at this one:

I was going to suggest these to him. I think the polished grex brakes are extremely hot and also not too loud.
well first off great freaking ride i love the fade to carbon fiber. as far as the wide body goes the top secret kit doesn't have flares in the back so it easier to fit the wheels. I have 19X12 with a 5 1/2in lip in the rear and a 0 offset and still don't clear the rear by about an 1in. but back on topic this is one of the sickest zees out there

You know, those would look pretty good... I was just thinking though, that despite the blue color, a project mu bbk would be teh hotness. It would look amazing. Either way its going to look awesome and either bbk is pretty rare to see. The grex would look awesome against his wheels with polished lip. (chrome? whatever...lol)
I agree. A project U kit will be a stunning look to the car. The teal will actually go really well with such a hot kit! Just give me a call and I'll give you the best price possible!

I would like to thank everyone for their comments on my car. I know there are a lot of questions. Here are some answers. Yes, I do have custom made hub centric wheel spacers on the car. They are 1" in the front and 1.5" in the rear to push the wheels to the edge of the kit. The 20" Volk GTC wheels are 9.5 in the front and 10.5 in the rear with a -7 offset. The tires are Michelin Pilot Sport with 245/35/R20 in the front and 275/30/R20 in the rear. The body shop who installed the kit and the custom paint was Ronnie Setser's Customs in Tampa Florida. The owner is a perfectionist. As to the rubbing of the wheels, the front fenders are replacements with the edge of the wheel wells taken off. The tires go up into the wheel well and do not rub. The rears are put on top of the stock quaters and they were cut very high and the interior of the top secret quarters were cut like the front. The wheels do not rub after a lot of testing. Believe me, this car will never see a steep incline or a speed bump. As to the dyno test, the ECU was sent to Turbonetics with none of the other mods listed and they reflashed it to the turbo with a stock kit. The car is running extremely rich with the gain on the boost controller set at minimum. The car dyno'd at 329 hp to the wheels. I am in the process of adjusting the boost controller to lean the car out and also thinking about sending the ECU to Tech Squared for another ECU reflash. And yes, it was mad money for this 8 month go around. I am not sponsored. I am looking into sponsorships and magazines. With the help of my friend Carlos, Jason and other member of the 350Z club of Florida this car would not have been possible. Thank you for all the great suggestions and all the compliments definitely made all this worth it.
