Whatever, its your car. If you like it thats all that matters. You just have to put your flame suit on if youre going to post up pictures of it with that hood and all the stickers on a 350Z forum.
i dont see why having an hr hood is posing. not like an hr is faster than a de.

slap more stickers on.

it may be a bit over kill but why is everyone saying take this Nismo stickers off the wheels? is he saying theyre Nismo wheels?

should he take the Nismo sticker off the engine cover because its not a Nismo engine cover? IMO its the same thing. he just went sticker happy, hes not saying theyre Nismo rims. but i could be wrong.

Its basically passing something off as something else.

I know the OP doesn't think he has NISMO wheels, but when he placed stickers on them he gave that impression.

Nice ride OP. Car modding is about customizing and individuality. If everyone listened to everyone else, all of our Zs would look the same.

Kouki hoods look better than zenki hoods to some (including myself). So do the Kouki front bumpers. There is nothing wrong with updating the looks. I think it looks better than any of the CF hoods out there.

Thank You Thermal. My thoughts exactly. I like to be different from the crowd and not copy alot of peoples same taste. So to everyone thats sayng to take the Nismo decals off the wheels, im not going to. To me it looks different and i like.

all the orange interior parts look ricey. nismo stickers everywhere makes your car look cheap as well. instead of wasting money on getting stickers and parts painted, i would have spent my money on performance parts.

The interior parts were painted because they were scratched up to begin with. The stickers once again are my personal liking. I only spend abut 50$ to get eveything painted inlcuding the wheels. So now how about you tell me HOW many performance parts i can buy for 50$????

Why is everyone giving this guy such a hard time? Aside from the stickers, the car looks pretty good.

I see nothing wrong with putting on a newer & better looking hood. This is the same as everyone upgrading to '06+ bi-xenons, LED tails, etc.

i'd rather have $50 in my pocket than rice out my interior. now you have too many colors and stickers in your interior and it doesnt flow well. to each their own i suppose. if you were going for the "i want to make my car look different but i only have $50 to spend" look, you did a great job!

Car looks great.

And people aren't criticizing the Nismo stickers on the wheels because it is 'different'...its because THEY AREN'T NISMO WHEELS!
