A Makeover.
well i'm bored at work and decided to post some pictures of my ride... she was in the bodyshop for 3 months... ran into problems during the process that's why it took so long... got her back last thursday and what can i say it's GREAT enjoying my Z again!
btw the color is a special gold + slight yellow mix with a satin/flat/matte finish...
hope you enjoy!

after:
btw sorry for the crappy camera quality and non edited photos, didn't use a dslr... i guess it would be hard to see the real color if they were edited...

good question... i just realized the tone of the front bumper's different under certain lighting... i think that's because he painted the bumpers separately after he did the rest of the car... the rear is fine though... might ask him to redo it when i bring her in for some touch ups here and there next week... we'll see how it goes...

thanks for the nice words guys!
hope you found the pictures "interesting"
hey sweet SLR i didn't see that when i was looking through flat colors before deciding on a final color...
changvi the headlamp bras were a PITA to get on since they were pretty thick... spent 2 hours getting them on trying to make them perfect!
but thanks for the comments keep them coming! i would like to know what others think...

haha... no love for the 70s fairlady Z emblem? wanted to give her some oldskool/traditional flavor... a lil retro...
the rear is part of the n1 bumper kit... don't see too many around... the one on buzzardmountain's Z would be part of the e-type long nose kit i think (GT style baby!!)
saving up for some coils preferably hipermax rs or hipermax iii
i know the car (especially the back) needs a drop... but as she sits now the front's been scraping stuff...
