I love the side shot with the carbon doors. I have to be honest, it's not an authentic mastergrade kit unless it was purchased 1.5 years ago. Keep up the good work and get some better pictures up during the day !

So, post pics of it with those wheels or you'll just get crap about those tiny Axis wheels.

With that said, it needs real wheels.

even if u got 20s now u need the BIGGEST wheel spacers availible. And +1 on the mesh in the from to cover those huge holes. IMO I think CF or 2 much CF on cars just ruins the look.

dude... you need to learn to read, i no longer have the axis rims because they were not meant for the wide-body kit. i switched over to HRE 595 20x11 and 20x13.

the sonic sticker that is on the hood because Sonic Motorsports is the company that built my complete motor from ground up. because of them, i am doing 525 rwhp and 500 ft-lbs of torque. after i switch from my GReddy Ultimate to the UTEC, i will boost more and try to hit 600 rwhp.

i am in the process of getting some company to make fender liners for my wide-body.

Thanks Jim... Whats cool about the whole carbon thing is that i bought all the mastergrade carbon parts from you! and it is an authentic kit because i bought it from mastergrade.net about 4 months before the site went down. the car is at another shop right now getting more things done to it so i cant take new pics yet. i will be getting it back on monday and for sure i will post the new pics then...

why are there so many haters on this forum? i thought that everyone who owned 350z were supposed to back each other up and give compliments, not put everyone down. if anything we should be hating on civic/integra forums. this is really pathetic to me...

Because us current/former Z owners don't like to see the beautiful natural lines of the 350Z distorted with a bunch of fiberglass or plastic, looking like some sort of spaceship. Personally, I just don't agree with the front. The rest if fine. Oh wait, I also hate unpainted CF too. Just screams RICER to me.

well, the only reason why i did it was to stand out from others, especially like for car shows and magazines. i wanted to be unique from the thousands and thousands of z owners around the US.

The system looks OK... Not sure about the kit. Maybe it looks better in person!

the pictures and the shot angles are also horrible.. with a wide body you don't do close ups.. you get a nice background scenery and take far away shots.. you can't force something wide in someone's face like that.. its like holding a hamburger to your face

Lose the flash on the camera. Makes the pics look ****. Dirty wheel wells FTL.

Not my choice personally. But i can respect the time and money put into it.
