pretty clean! Though i would've done the two tone theme all the way around if you painted the front bumper that way (paint half the skirt and the rear fins black).

yeah i was thinking that. I had a hard time deciding how to paint the front bumper finally went with that color scheme.

My next big things is deciding what rims to get so many choices/sizes/colors..etc.

Looks good.

I'd go w/ Volk or continue the NISMO theme and do Nismo LMGT's.

As for sizes and stuff, are you gonna be tracking? If so then stick to an 18" unless you can afford an 18" and a 19" set. As for other specs it all depends on which Volk you decide on. Once you decide check w/ Andy@performance (his SN here) and I know he'll hook you up.

BTW check out Brian aka Volk350z's ride for some inspiration if you haven't already

I actually think it doesn't look too bad with the stock rim. Is your V2 spoiler replica or authentic?

I think the car looks great, stock wheels and all. Looking forward to whatever rims you do pick, though (my suggestion? something black with a polished lip, like Work Meisters)

Looks good, but the side skirt need to be black as well in order to match the bumper's theme. It looks weird like that..

Nice... I like the Paint scheme, I would paint mine the same way...
Question, did you prefer the JDM sides over USDM, or could you care less...

looks good in all. If it were me the exhaust would be gone. As for the wing if your were going to keep the stock wheels then I would say ditch the wing but since your changing out the wheels keep the wing it will look good when complete.

Time to answer all the questions.

1.is the v2 authentic or shine ?..or another replica ?...

the spoiler is a replica i bought from punkzster.

2.did you prefer the JDM sides over USDM, or could you care less?

I didnt really care as long as it was nismo like. Plus punkzster gave me the whole kit so it was all good.

3.any fitment issues with that hood?

yes there were it didnt latch shut and didnt clear the factory strut bar.
I took off the latch and used red sparco hood pins.
It has small gaps on each side because of strut bar.

4. is it lowered ?

nope.
