alright, hopefully youre ok with some constructive criticism.

the single tone V2 is horrible. should have two tone at least the opening and dropped the carnards. if you two toned the opening and the lip, the canards would have been great in black. the blue engine bay looks incomplete. you really need blue hoses to pull it off. the manifold in blue is just too much. the ssr's need to be spaced out a bit. imho, the Z badge on the bumper is bleh. id rather have the stock nissan emblem.

No worries. It's my money and car. I do agree that blue hoses would be even better as well as the timing chain covers.

I used to have a two tone V2 until it got destroyed by a retread tire in the middle of the freeway. Then I decided to do all white.

Oh, as for the wheels, I like them like that. I thought they were pretty flush w/o having to roll the fenders. Most people who see it in person like the setting. I also prefer the Z badge over the Nissan hamburger.

I totally disagree with Nexx on the front bumper, it looks pretty gangster all white and I like the engine bay in blue as well

I actually kinda like it... adding the color on the door sills is interesting. Never thought of that.

Hey 350Zensokou, I'm guessing people either love it or hate it, but what kind of comments do you get from regular Joe Schmos on the street?

Got a thumbs up from a cop. Some girls followed me and my girl one day. Just to take a picture. Almost everyone that sees my Z loves it. People constantly take pics or vidoes of my car. It's become a attention *****. The only negative comments I get actually come from this my350z forum. Older Z guys hate it when something different is brought to the table. I'm tired of seeing the same stuff over and over.

Sorry but I'm not feelin it too much either. The wheels aren't bad, but the accents on the body are a bit too much for me. Whatever floats your boat though

Going out on a limb and saying I like that **** a lot. Not so much the pink but the execution. Looks great with the color accents.

I really like it. It definitely stands out and looks clean, except for the off color of the bumper.

BTW, this was version 1 of my V2 back in 2007. The bumper lasted less than a year. Those were CF canards.

+1, paint on that bumper doesn't match, you should've blended it. It looks good, but I'd much rather pull up to a light and see a girl driving it....instead of breaking my neck to realize its a dude
