Talking My INGS+1 Z Updated: Paint, Volk GTS, Show N Go, Headlights and more!

Hello Everyone,

I haven't posted in a while so i figured it was time. This spring i had a bunch of things done so i'll list them:

1) Replaced my RMC Volk SF Challenges with Gloss Black Volk GTS 19x9.5 +17 and 19x10.5 +18... fenders rolled. Tires are 245/55 and 275/35.
SF Challenges are still for sale.

2) Re-sprayed the entire car chrome silver (same as it was). removed veilside v2 wing.

3) New headlights installed. My first set was done by Lightwerkz and this set was done by CinCity. Although they're both nice friendly people to deal with these headlights are NOT meant to be opened and i would dissuaded anyone from doing this themselves or by any company. I do not recommend either company and DO NOT want them talked about in my thread please! PM me with questions if anything.

4) Show N' Go plate custom installed so it's 100% concealed. YouTube Video is posted below.

5) Awesome black mesh grill installed... it's thick and stronger than any other mesh out there i've seen. (ebay seller:metrodirect)

6) 07+ Seibon Carbon fiber vented hood with custom paint scheme. Perfect weave and fitment-- and to top it off it was a gift from my girl

7) Interior carbon A-pillars (both sides) with autometer nexus gauges. RSW carbon crown meter cover and custom carbon fiber side skirt add ons.


In case you where wondering, the car is riding on Bilstein PSS coilovers with Hotchkis sways and Powergrid endlinks (thanks Adam)

A bunch more was done to the car but i'm getting lazy!

And now the pics...



















And a quick really bad video of the show 'n go plate.

Adam at Z1auto
Larry at ShowtimeAuto
Kenny at AudioXTC
Vinny at VinnyTenRacing
and Dannys Autobody in Lindenhurst NY

"Show'N'Go" is the name of the manufacturer who makes the retractable license plate holder for his front bumper.

Car looks great Peter.

Edit: Peter please e-mail me at Kwame@z1auto.com when you get a chance. Thanks.

why didnt you remove the rear wiper and fill the hole before painting! The wiper is so tacky. nice car otherwise, maybe time for a BBK?
