Like many here I think it would look nicer if it were 1 color. Also the wheels don't do it for me. I think the Z has such clean lines that overly busy wheels tend to take your attention away from this fact.

 

ok..I guess I am repainting the kit over the winter.. The hood stays!!

 

can someone do a good phot shop of it so I can see how it will look??

 

Is the kit CF? If so I would partally paint it. I did it with my CF Veilside front lip.

Heres a link to pics http://www.350zonline.com/gallery/album07/P8102355

The hood could paited but Id leave the middle where the sccop is CF. It also look good just in CF.

If the body kit is'nt CF paint the whole kit sunset.

 

I voted not...not neccesarily because I dislike any of the parts on the car (with the exception of the rims), but because the parts don't lend themselves well to one another. The INGS kit is very subdued while the hood is wild. The two tone would work if the colors were more closely related, but the Sunset/shiny rims/black kit and hood just don't "mesh" well.

 

That said. Looks are subjective. Just because I don't like ghetto or rice does not mean you aren't aloud to like them. It's your car. Do what makes you happy.

I try to live by the motto: Be yourself, no matter who you might offend.

Got to go one color, AND that means painting the hood. Lose the grill and stickers, one color, keep the rims and your car is clean. The two tone is killing the wheels and they'll look better if the car is all Lemans. Just my .02.

 

sorry, but the rims need to go. as well as all those stickers.

ls is a tough color to match with cf. but i don't think it looks that bad. i suggest you paint everything except the hood. and if you ever want the car to look less "race-y and wild" then just put the stock hood on. this way you can have the option for a cf hood for show or the stock hood if you don't wanna stand out so much. or maybe, you can partially paint the hood, leaving the center part where the hood scoop is as cf. just my opinion.

 

OMG....i cant believe these comments....every time i saw your car..no joke..i wish i had yours more than mine!!!..your car is perfect...julian i definately know the mod changing sickness though!!...im gonna have 2 kits soon

anyway...i vote you save 1000 bucks on painting it

the ONLY thing i would change though are the wheels...even though i think they are hot...im a big junkie for big lips..plus we both know that it needs a better offset ...i think ur crazy if u paint this kit...if anything..buy another kit (something else that you want) and then you can change....i would tell you to get rid of the hood...but thats only cause i want it!....im sure whatever you do will be a good choice..costly but good

 

and LEAVE the GRILLLLE....its so nice

 

Paint the hood, paint the kit, lose the stickers, lose that god-awful grill (I'm a big fan of the cheap chrome door-edge guard stuff on the stock grille), and keep the rims.

Right now, the car's kinda ugly. Unless you're being sponsored, stickers are the worst thing ever to put on your car. Period.

 

paint the car one color, try the nismo stainless grill. I like the wheels but the two tone is ricey.

 

Yes!!!!
Car must be one color, leave the wheels, they will look just fine when the car is one color

 

Paint the INGS kit or change it.
Change the wheels for something "nice"
Leave the CF hood

 

paint everything - hood included

 

I'd paint everything that's not CF. And like most here have said, get a different set of rims. I think the grill will look nice with it once you do the necessary paint job.

Who makes your hood by the way and where did you get them? That hood is hot.

 

I'd paint everything, even the carbon fiber. And change wheels.

 

Just my opinion, take it for what it's worth...

Paint Kit.
Paint Hood. (Maybe just the sides)
Remove Grill. (Maybe paint it black)
Keep the rims and powder coat them black but leave the lip polished
Remove all stickers
Buy the JDM smoked reflectors
Smoke the taillights/turn signals

Just do what you think looks best. After all, it is YOUR car.

 

Here's my opinion. When I saw your car at the NJ meet, I was like WOW!. I almost wished I had gone with your color instead of CS after seeing. I even saved a picture of it which I am attaching below and you can even see how everyone was checking out your car.

I think the ING's kit is nice but would look better if painted Leman's Sunset. As far as how the rims look, that is very subjective and I believe that they look much better in person than they do in pictures. I also am a fan of wide lips but when I saw your rims I thought they looked hot on your car.

I think if you painted the bodykit and left the CF hood as is it would still look unique (which I know is a look you want) but yet maintain that awesome bright look your car color has.

Maybe someone can photoshop your bodykit to Leman's Sunset so that we can get a better perspective.

Here's the picture I was talking about:

 

Paint, paint, paint. Go for the clean smooth look!
