I agree, all the little details count which is what I will show you guys next month with some new stuff. The only reason why I stay away from certain lugs like Rays, Work, 5zigen, etc. is because I'm picky about brand matching certain parts. If SSR had their own lock nuts they would have been on my car since day one. My second pair of wheels will either get the Rays or Work lock nuts to match the rims..... you can count on that
Muteki is a perfectly fine, reliable brand... Ive had like 20 sets of their lugs on all kinds of different cars and never had a problem.
Also... Mike, I wanna f*ck your rear wheels. And the fronts too. haha
Thanks for the input. Muteki is a neutral brand, it's JDM, super lightweight, strong (forged), and the deep black color completes my setup perfectly IMO.
BTW, your last sentence sounds kind of disturbing, but I'll take it as a compliment
I finally pieced my car back together last night after I painted some body parts Both my hood and lip are painted, but I left some carbon accents. I still have a few more things that will be going on my car before a full photo shoot. After two months of sitting in my garage and playing with different set ups its finally back together in one piece. Now I have to wait another month for the paint to cure so I can re-clear bra my car

My new favorite shot.
After buying and testing out three different side skirts, the Nismo best suited my stance and setup.
Yes, it's sort of a waste to paint performance material as popular and functional as carbon..... but I left accents That actually is the best part of the paint aspect of this. Photo's will be up once I'm done to show off some of that hidden bling, lol.
I was expecting it to look MEH, but it turned out WOW!
Honestly I was never a big fan of the Nismo side skirts. I played with photoshop a lot before I made my decision. I also went through three different side skirts before I was happy with my setup. IMO if you take a 350z that's slammed, big barrel step lip, and a pointy front bumper; the poke in the Nismo side skirts only help you execute a pretty aggressive mean looking car.
Do you have the nismo rears as well? They go well with the rear diffuser you have.
I agree, they look good. I went back and forth trying to pair them up with my setup however, I don't like how the inner skirt flaps in where you screw it on your bumper nor how it kind of disrupts the rear bumper lines. I'm still entertaining the idea of modifying it to work better for my rear. Who knows, you might see me with it in the future.
When I do a full photo shoot, I'll post up what I did with my rear bumper
