Default The new look

Hey guys,

So I bought my Z about a month and a half ago and since then have started changing things up to my liking.. I think this is how the car is going to sit for now.. I may add a CF hood down the line, but I doubt it.. Let me know what you all think.

What I've done:

-Replaced tanabe springs with Tein S-techs (pretty much a daily driver for me and I didn't want to sit that low)
-Bought new TE-37 style rims (Again, a DD and didn't want to drop a ton on the real deal)
-Added Z emblem to the front bumper since you could see where the other one was supposed to be..
-Swapped tails to 06+ LED tails
-Installed Greddy SP2 axleback
-Installed JWT Popcharger
-Rear wiper delete


Before:




Now: I'll try to get better pictures soon

Yea, I guess I should remove that... If I put Varrstoen though, no one would have a clue what I'm talking about haha.

Sorry I didn't want to drop 2 grand or more for a used set of the real deal on a car that is driven every day. We all got our own opinions though.

looking great OP, keep up the good work, and don't mind some of these comments about fake wheels, all that matter is that you like them, and it makes since for a DD
