Hey guys. Recently got the car cleaned and my friend and I decided to take some pics. He did all the shooting and all credit to photos goes to him.
My car aint the cleanest around but its my baby and for sure a work in progress. It is no where near finished trust me. Ive only had the car since the beginning of this March. I know it needs things still like spacers for example lol.
Just thought I'd post the pics up on here however just for some more eye candy as i love looking at Z's all day.
There are also some pics of his 86
If your wondering whats Hidden Performance its my shop that was just opened. Anything from engine building to headlight housing painting. If you would like something done let me know
On to photos. Hope you guys enjoy. Give me feedback...............

Not bad, couple things i'd change..
-PAINT front bumper.. please.. this isn't the 90's anymore with the unpainted bodykits on civics, and add fenderliners / underpanels.. otherwise it looks cheap
-Look like 18s to me? 18 or 19, your tire size is too thin.. need to up the sizes to fit the car better
-Hidden performance.. why do you need to PM? some special top secret exclusive too fast too furious car club? Anyway, the sticker looks ricey IMO, i'd rip that off fast.
Car has potential - just needs to be cleaned up. Just my 2 cents

wow man your z needs a lot of work before posting pics on this forum bc you're gonna get flamed hard core. #1 thing you need to do is take care of your paint, it looks terrible. find a good detailer to do a paint correction on your car. the swirl marks makes your car look beat up and they really show on your black car on a sunny day. you also need to remove the oxidation on your cf hood or if its beyond repair you should paint it. you also need about a 20mm spacer all around but i think you realize that as well.
ask your buddy who details his ae86 bc that car looks super clean!

Anyways, I see potential. Like you said, the car is a work in progress.. Wonder why I've never seen your car around? I'm from SCV also

I love thos XXR 521 .. I bought a gold set for my G but i bought 18x10 +25 all around. I think you should have done the same thing cuz the front looks too tucked. Brakes look good. But you do need to get those parts painted. and the carbon fiber looks like it was never protected from the sun. The car as an overall looks good .. from a far off . But anyway the pictures themselves look good.

umm in order of opinions and comments said...
1. car front end is mismatched cause i had gotten a flat tire and it ripped my fender up, broke side skirt, ripped front bumper off and shot my driver headlight off and its was M.I.A. Paint is actually gonna be worked on this week (just waiting for gf to leave town)
2. Spacers are next purchase of course, i am killing myself to get them as wheels were just bought like 4 days ago
3. I need to put on rims asap cause i was prepping my stock ones to paint and ship out to a guy on this forums so i had to find whatever tire size i could in 2 1/2 hours lol
4. My friend does detailing and it will be done once the front end and skirt are matching.
5. The sticker represents my shop that was just started. I didnt wanna be blasting it out tho. I do everything from engine building to painting headlight housings (like cincity).
6. Hood still does need work and is gonna be worked on same time as paint. It was Rickdogs old hood and was worse wen i bought it and did alot of work but it still needs more.
7. I only have photos cause it was offered to me lol
^^^^All those arent to start arguements and such just to answer some of your comments.
pics of damage...(flat tire at 70 mph on freeway)
