Default Looking back through the (mod) years with my 350z.

Right after graduating college, I went to the Nissan dealership and drove off in a new Super Black 350z. I was as giddie as a kid with candy, guess I was pretty much still a kid back then.


Started modding right away.

Circa- 2005-2008.



2008-2011



Changed to Glacier White- 2012

Once you go black...




Present- Intense Blue aka 911 Mexico Blue.

I skipped a few variants of my car but these were my favorite and most refined versions.

Actually, when you were wearing white and the threshold under doors black- that popped. Nice!

Nah, I sold the Works. I've had Volks and other Work wheels, not pictured. Just didn't keep them long enough to take pics.

I totally agree, but I still love my Z.

I like change though. I could always just trim off the bottom but I didn't want the panda look anymore.

Same car since 2005. I've bought 6 other cars, 3 brand new, since purchasing the z. The z and x are the only ones I've kept long term.

Well done br0... love the Mexico Blue! Congrats on being one of the few members in the 1 owners club. It's tempting trading in the Z for a new car and start over.
