So I bought my Z last October, placed my deposit for a set of wheels that I fell in love with and its been a 9 month wait for me to get these in with every reason imagionable as to why they took so lond.

I must say, that overall I am VERY happy with my ride and I would love to know what you think..

All you have to do now is take off that spoiler and you're done.

Hot car man. I dont personally think the Nismo rear flows well with the Greddy sides at all but other than that very nice.

I like the side skirts a lot. I prefer the track wheels and not too crazy about the lip. But looks well done!

I have to be careful but its not to bad. Now that the Prokit is on its much easier than before with the Sportlines. Thanks for all the feedback so far! i waited on those wheels for what feels like forever and I think the wait was worth it now...

Looks real nice bro, I'm not a spoiler fan but won't hate on yours. I like that head unit and just ordered the 9856 myself.

Everything comes together in pics 4-6. Not a fan of large spoilers, but teamed with the other exterior mods, it doesn't look out-of-place to me. You can really see the difference the led's make comparing pic 3 to pic 4. Have wanted to keep my SB 35th AE as stock as possible, but am seriously considering the led's

Good work...

Not feeling the spoiler, I like the first "Before" picture, the car looks more slicker and sexy with no spoiler. Nice wheels though.

You should also get some front angle shots that are not right to the ground.

Ya, I was on the fence about it but thought I would give it a shot after I got rear ended and the ins. company was going to pay for it.

Here are a couple more that you might like.









BTW - streetracer, the suspension is stock other than the Eibach Pro Kit

Thanks for the input everyone!!
