My 350Z Photoshoot
I just got my 350Z back from the bodyshop who prepped, painted and installed my NISMO V2 replica front bumper, NISMO side-skirts and Carbon Ltd Seibon V1 CF rear wing. The shop that did the work was Exotic Customs, they are like the Unique Whips of West Chester, PA. 
I am no professional photographer, but below are my before and after photoshoot pics. There was a professional photographer there that snapped a few pics of my car before it left Exotic Customs. It was nice that a professional photographer thought it was cool enough to ask if they could take a photoshoot of it, but I am not expecting it to show up in any magazines anytime soon. It was cool though...
PLEASE, I do not need my whole thread filled up with people who do not like my tribute to Corvette Racing at LeMans fender stripes. You are welcome to have that opinion, but bottom line, I like them and I don't want to hear it. I don't expect anyone to like them. I like them and that is all that matters.

Sparco Pro 2000 Track Seats
I installed these in December. I was able to shave a total of 34lbs (17 per side). What a PITA, but well worth it in the end (especially since I track my Z).

NICE........now for Some Black rims.................and NISMO 380RS engine and you will be set.
I like the "tiger " stripes its adds more aggression to the look, kinda like air vents in the vendor.

i can definitly respect that...and as far as graphics go they arent bad at all.

I really like these wheels (Volk RE30's in black). https://my350z.com/forum/wheels-and-tires/235341-volk-re30-s-are-here.html Or Time Attacks (but not sure about the red painted ring on the rim) or maybe some CCW Classics with black centers.

So black wheels are next on the mod list, but I am already getting the "hairy" raised-eyebrowl look from the Mrs. with what I do so far, plus just trading in my old POS daily driver for a leftover new 2006 400hp GTO isn't helping my case much either.
But hopefully the stock Rays aren't totally out of place with the silver "Z" hamburger emblem on the front bumper, the silver door handles and the silver Nissan emblem on the back hatch.

But I like all three of those wheels (I'll have to search and see the Rota "wannabe" NISMOs in black), but like everything else it will boil down to money and what is the best deal I can get on any of them when I'm ready.
