Default 350Z look after 7 months of ownership.

Been a while since I've really been on here. Last time I talked about doing the kit for the car. Well it's been installed for a while now and I have to say all the compliments I get for it makes it well worth the money. I bought the kit from Strafe on here and fit really well. The driver side side skirts and part of the front bumper needed some work but as you can see fits great! I am very pleased. Hopefully a CF hood will be next and a double din. Not much engine work will come till later when I get a truck to DD.

When I bought it... It was lowered, had a front lip and all the lights were smoked.





Since December I've added the full Nismo V2 kit, 19 inch R1 Hype wheels (better tires coming later this month), and a Magnaflow single exhaust (got it cheap).







And got my wife to do some modeling on it out by the lake a few weekends ago.



Hope yall like it.

I hear that. I just started a new job and I cant wait to get commission rolling in to do some things... gonna start with hoarding parts (wheels, tires, coilovers, misc) until I get my V2 kit then do it all on one day once the kit is painted.

That's sweet man. I love the kit so much. I was kind of worried about it but glad I did it.
