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...

 

looks nice.. very different

 

thanks! yeah i was hoping it would be out of the norm... hehe

 

Cool color choice. Not a huge fan of the front bumper, but definitely one you don't see too often.

 

Matte gold?

 

front bumper not paint matched to fender?

 

that's right... matte gold (metallic)

 

reminds me of split pea soup.

but very nice, the paint work looks great

 

reminds of the gold SLR...



I like it!

 

Hmmmmmm, definitely different. But not really my cup of tea with the color and the kit. But whatever floats your boat thats what it matters....I like what you've done with the headlights though....

 

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...

 

I actually love it!
Just take of the Fairlady Z sign and it should be good to go

 

YEA DIFFERENT BUT NICE AT THE SAME TIME BUT THAT HUGE FAIRLADY Z EMBLEM HAS GTG MANG BUT TO EACH HIS OWN!!!!

 

what rear is that? never seen it before

 

cwest etype rear? same as buzzard mtn? hmmm.

go get cwest sf canards now! and massive drop (or gf210s).

your car ROCKS! very original.

 

Man car is looking fantastic. Very different. Also love the fairlady emblem I have that emblem on mine too.

 

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...

 

Looks great bro. Did not expect the color haha good job.

 

Not feeling it. Bumpers, paint color, tails....wack. Looked better before.
