I actually don't think it looks that bad. I think everyone just is getting too hung up on it bearing a resemblence to a GTR, but if you just judge it on it's own merit, I have to agree with some of the other people and say that while it does make the Z look like another car, it still looks way better than some of the other original kits out there. Lol +1 at the veilside fish reference btw

I mean yeah it'd probably be silly once a person starts slapping GTR badges on this but other than that, it actually looks ok I think. Kinda like how I have nothing against people rocking Rotas or something similar, but it only gets silly once they start sticking Volk stickers on them.

Even Project Mu whose BBKs everyone on this site busts a nut over, decided to use this kit on their own Z so go figure...

Dude, seriously?

How many kits like this are out there? Off the bat I can say that I haven't come across it yet. eff that whole poser crap. I saw to the guy that wants to get it get it. At least its not another VS or Amuse car rolling through the neighborhood.

I like the way this kit looks, a little custom fab on the front would be in order prior to bolting the sucker on but otherwise its a good kit. HOWEVER, the Project MU car is hideous in that crapy seagreen and ever vinyl known to man plastered everywhere.

I bet if someone got this kit and got a good paint shceme on it it would rock. In my opinion, which is other than most everyone posting up in here.

P.S. A body kit is taking a factory car and making it look different. Who gives a **** if it looks similar to a GT-R? Similar and are are way different.

if your tryin to pass off as a GTR then ghey... but to just add the front bumper as part of a kit, i think it flows nice aside from the GTR factor... this style front bumper is becomming popular... even the new evos are using the big black open front end

Default GTR?

This Weber kit has a similar style to a lot of other cars and it does look cleaner than much of the other after-market space ship designs.

I suppose if a DB7 & DB9 can look similar and a F360 and a F430 can have some of the same styling qeues, why can't a Z and GTR share anything similar aside from the Nissan name?
