Default New pics -- added rims and body kit

Thanks to Zeus's Donation (at the prices I paid they basically were) I upgraded the exterior. I am now officially ALL Show and NO Go (stock engine). I think the Stillen Series 1 body kit is one of the least aggressive ones out. I still need to get a front grill (some dumbasses are going to think I'm F/I if I don't get one soon). The rims are 20" Axis Mod 7 with 9" (245) in the front and 10" (275) in the back with ventus tires. Please no posts that twenties don't belong on a Z (I really could care less). The one pic of my back lip is with my checkbook ... sorry I don't like to carry around one hundred dollar bills.

Needless to say, for me it's a huge upgrade.

Sick... Very clean. Those fat-lipped 20's fill out the wells with the stock suspension and give it a really nice look.

Congrats.

Thanks guys ... The turn around on the kit was literally them taking it off Zeus's Z and put on to mine in about half a day (Thanks to the guys @ VIP Tuning in Tysons). BTW install was $275.

yeah the roadsters actually sit a little lower than coupes stock so I'm definitely not dropping it. Plus I think speed bumps are my friends and I can live with them in harmony.

Very nice. Wheels and bodykit are tight. I actually like the grill-less front end

nice lips on those wheels. I was never a fan of still front, but it looks dam good on a roadster. The kit itself is very subtle and clean, I esp like the clean sides.

I might add that the twenties w/ tires are actually about 4 or 5 pounds ligther than my stock 18s w/ tires . So technically you could say it's a slight performance enhancement. Also the grip on these tires is phenominal. I can't even catch a chirp when I shift hard into second.

Add n2o or FI...

It's fairly easy to light up the 285's that I have in back on spray.

Advertisement I found on EBAY

"THESE WHEELS ARE 5X114 20X9 ET37 IN THE FRONT, 20X10 ET38 IN THE REAR.

THESE WHEELS ARE HYPER SILVER W/ MACHINE POLISHED LIP. "

basically the fronts have a 3" Lip with 37 offsets, and rears have 4" Lip with 38 offsets.
