i think those wheels are just absolutley KILLING the look of the car. The rims look cheap (yes i know they are volks). I think it would look great if you went w/ maybe some phantom GTS's and a some kind of bbk.

i think the car is awesome man!! keep up the good work. not saying you need to change anything on your car, but if you were to change the rims, volk's new color High Metal Bronze would really set your look off... especially if you use the centercap and lug set-up from the first pic from ---> https://my350z.com/forum/wheels-tire...lk-wheels.html plus, i think the phantom barrel would match your theme.. but great looking z!

I don't know. I think I would need to see it in person. It seems like the flat black hides the aggressive curviness of the Z imo. Like the color combo doesn't show the contrast or something. I could be wrong and it could just be the photo.

Why dont' you get a professionaly photoshoot or someone with some experience and nice camera? Your car looks godlike but it can't be portrayed cause of lack of picture quality.

Thanks for all the comments guys. I think that I somehow looked over this thread a few times so sorry on the lack of replies.

some bronze nismo wheels would be sick IMO. diggin the flat black.

in the light does the bumper seem to be off from the sheet metal flat black? My buddies vetter is flat black and anything urethane is a little off compared to the shet metal. I'm pretty sure it was the painter though....
I agree. I think that some wheel contrast would be nice. The car is currently undergoing an update and wheels are one aspect I havent made a final decision on.

My bumper is also Polyurethane but it matches perfectly, in person.

Thats what these photos WERE supposed to be. But they were free, what can you expect? I havent found any good photographers in my area yet.

Most threads with such titles seem to over promise. This one however, delivers in spades! That is an excellent satin paint job. Nice Z and great pics!

NICE!!! love the satin finish... gives the car a more "stealthy" look imho...

when i was debating on what color to go with i was actually thinking of doing a satin black... but ended up with a satin gold-yellowish finish instead!

Also Horn, what would you suggest out of curiosity?
gunmetal wheels seem like the way to go with flat black cars
