looks good just a couple suggestions, loose the rear wiper, rear spring mount mod, 20 mm spacers out back, paint door handles, loose the z emblem for the clean look in the rear and def loose the led that has become an autozone thing now. under the hood looks good.

not really liking the front bumper but ive seen worse...i really really dont like the bumper tuck with the nismo exhaust ..agree on needing a spacer in the back but i think 20mm would be way to much..10mm would be more like it i think..DEF DEF. dont like the led placement either too ricey, and a polished plenum would add a nice touch to the engine bay...

Man your car looks clean as hell. That's probably the nicest headliner setup I've seen in a Z. What size rims are you running?

Your Z looks good! Tasteful mods, the only thing I would change are those lights in the front bumper, not feelen them.

I agree with the mod choices you suggested. I def want to get the spacer for the rear asap. Any suggestions on a brand or it really doesn't matter?

If the led's are the worst i could have done I'm happy lol.. A polished plenum is in the works for sure.

I'm not really too sure of the offsets on them but 19 x 8.5 in the front and 19 x 9.5 in the rear.

Thanks for the comments, I appreciate all the suggestions, keep em coming

I agree with losing the LED lights - they look a bit cheesy to be straight forward. But I do like your engine dress up!

Nice headliner and engine bay.

+1 on the sideskirts, but looks like you already know that.

Somewhat hard to tell but what I can see looks very nice!

As a photographer try not to overexpose as in a couple of these shots, wait for the magic hour, right (before or at sunrise/sunset) that should compliment your car more than 10-3pm shadows and hard light... Not sure about the cross processed look.

So tips just try better shooting hours, if you want more detail to show up in your darks get a huge white science board or anything big and white and move around it to bounce light and or tin foil

Thanks for the info. I 'm a total newb with photography, but looking forward to getting better at it and making it a steady hobby.
