Default My New-To-Me PPW

Just picked this up last week and finally had time to snap some shots of it. Forgive the lack of photography skills...

I've always been part of the German car forums and a bodykit like this would have been a big no-no, but I fell in love with the car as soon as I saw it. I've also always owned black, so two big switches for me with this car.


It is an '03 base with 54,000 miles, from what I gather it has:
'06 tails
'06 wheels
A mystery kit (help me out if you've seen it before)
Clarion touchscreen DVD
A mystery short-shifter (Holy **** compared to a VW throw!!)

I'm guessing the person who owned it first took the wheels...definately need some wheels to match the aggressive body kit but its a great start

congrats!

Needs wheels and dropped oh wait that has been said 5 times already. Guess nobody else has to mention it. Car looks good that kit is one of my favorites. Mind saying how much you got it for?

Don't worry about the color. White is faster than black.

That's an INGS kit. In my opinion, one of the best designs out there for the Z.

Nice Z. IMO the INGS rear bumper looks best with the middle bottom portion painted black. Like others have mentioned, drop and then some wheels and you'll be in business.

Take it to a body shop and get that kit fitted and painted properly.
Nice start to a potentially great looking car!

Agreed with others, needs more aggressive wheels!! And fittment on the rear bumper is kind of off. Otherwise congrats and looks like a great start.
