Hmmmm...I'm really disliking that front. Way too catfish-like. The rear is ok though, with the contrasted black diffuser. Still don't like the scoops on the sides though. Way too F&F for me.

Just wondering if anyone had to remove the foam to make it fit properly. Thanks...
Hmm...thats news to me., take a pic of the area in question, i guess at this point though you do what ever it takes. My installer said there were no issues w/ mine even w/ the intercooler.

Other then that the only fitment thing I had with the front was the driver side next to the headlight didn't line up exactly with the hood. Not really noticeable, but enough that I noticed.

+1. The rear kit IMO is the best made for the Z.

It is definitely an attention getter, because it looks great!

Ok, guys....after almost two weeks of anticipation, the car has finally reached its last stage. Basically, the body work is done. Just waiting for the shop to install the miscellaneous exterior accessories and the under tray. Here are two teaser pics........as soon as the car is completely done, the finale will definitely be posted in this thread. A huge thanks to Andy@performance for the great deal and service. Definitely an A+++++++ in my book.

NICE.... That is a tease bro...I could'nt resist - I had to do a levels adjustment in pshop to see what the whole bumper looked like...nice work.. the fitment seems topnotch on the sides as well. Glad everything workd out for you. Its cool to see more of these on the road, the quality is def there. It sits a little lower than my old JP lip but def worth it. In for MOAR pics... and I'll keep you posted on the oil cooler diversion panel I'm fabbing ..just wrangling parts for now.
