very clean but not the best looking choices of mods such as eyelid and taillights and wheels.

even if it perhap is ricey, it's some clean rice. not bad rice.

many would consider the Veilside V3 to be rice but it's grown on me and when it's done right it looks good.

i would suggest lowering the car a bit and going back to oem taillights and removing the eyelids.

I hate this whole kit in general. It all depends on the other persons taste?

veilside almost always makes you rice regardless of other mods. your car is rice but you can remove some of the ******** from it and your good to go.

That is one of the cleanest riceballs I've seen, just change up the body kit and tail lights.

Body gaps look clean on the body kit props for proper prep work.. the rear wing IMHO is much better looking and if that center element is adjustable, probably more effective than the V1 and V2 Nismo...the tail lights are the only meh on this car...

I actually like a lot about the car. The color is beautiful, the rims (outside of the red strip) are nice and personally I like the taillights. The wing is a little too big for me (I'd go with the nismo v2 wing) and I really hate the red accents all over the car but all in all I like your ride.

Lose the tails, antenna, and eye lids. Get more aggressive wheels and you'll be good in my opinion. Otherwise I don't think your Z is that bad at all. Have seen MUCH worse.

why did you get the tails? if you like the Z in them, just black them out. that way, at night people can still see the Z, and its not as ricey.

Eyelids and major rice


Easy to fix

its not bad actually, well put together unlike some cars. Borderline rice maybe? If you don't want people calling it rice, you could switch out the wheels for nicer ones. love the color
