I'm not a graphics lover, but your Z looks damn good John (and those aren't rice graphics anyways). Congrats.

everyone, thanx for the compliments.

i am not a big fan of graphics also, but i had to make an exception on the nismo graphics. you have to see the graphics in person. the pix don't do it justice. the graphics complete the nismo look.

the fit of the front bumper was perfect (although i had a good bodyshop put it on)

the kit was $1600 from www.visracing.com, ask for grant.

i also had to raise the car a little since the front end was low and my car is a daily driver.

-john

John that looks like a special model from the factory. I dont like graphics either but they belong on your car. Everything matches. Brakes graphics ect. I initially was dissapointed when you took off the TE37s but I really think the current wheels are the best with this setup!

Unfortunately I never did like the Nismo spoiler. IMO it doesnt blend with the car, especially the box-like mounting point. Maybe a Stillen or a VEilside V1 would be better. Then again maybe I would keep it hoping it would grow on me.
*edit* Actually the wing looks great from every angle but from behind.
All in all that car is probably the best looking one on My350z.com though. Congrats

dkent2 - thanx for the awesome compliment. i know, i know - it's either you like the nismo graphics or you don't. like i said earlier, i'm not a graphics guy myself, but the car (imho) looks so good with the graphics on. you have to see it in person, the pix don't do the graphics any justice.

J/K. thanx for the sweet compliment. can't wait to see you and jay's project 350z. tell that guy jay that i know he is itchin' to do something to his car and to just be patient and wait for a mod or body kit that si=uits him and his personality. sowhat nismo kit is he thinking about: cf replica nismo or authentic usa polyurethane nismo (coming in december i hear)?

Your car has been one of my favorites even before this change. The car is awesome!! I hope whoever buys the car takes GOOD care of it.

I see that the car was at Elk Grove Nissan. I go to some twisty run meets and we meet in Elk Grove. It's me, along with another member from this board. The rest of the cars are Acura CL's. We are going to meet up in November. It would be great to see the car, if you still have it. I can get the EXACT date if you would be interested or able to make it.
