Default More Additions and What I am working on now

So just taking my time and doing some upgrades to the Z. Added some more CF pieces and got a lot more still in the wrapper to add. Plus, finally got the G Zilla's over to help me out. The driver side was a slight biiach, had to take out the head light and do some tugging to get it fitted up perfect but, it does fit perfectly.

A few shots of the trunk, this is my attempt to piece the inside of my car together for the high jacking that freaking Tweeter did to me.

All my carbon fiber is Seibon dude...

Had to have Corey give me a hand with the driver side just because it took a bit of coxing to fit perfect but its fitted up perfectly and the passenger side one just bolted right on with zero issues.

I had one of those on my widebody car. I wouldn't buy another though. Just a hassle and a half to deal with and in the end just not worth it. I am not sure to what end I want to come from with all this CF stuff..

Depends on what Justin can put togeher for me.. ...

are you painting all the cf pieces or leaving them unpainted? Not a fan of leaving that many cf pieces unpainted but if you like it, go for it.

Dang man, looks good. Really good actually. I've never been a big fan of unpainted carbon/ two tone cars, but you pulled it off nicely. Reminds me of Rick Nguyen's 350:

Well.. waiting on my CF hatch and rear lip to be put on and also the roof to be overlayed then my paint shop guy will spray the lower portions with a few Chrome Silver sprays but not enough to drown out the CF. Depending on how the graphics mock up will look we'll see... I am planing on using graphics that are a few shades darker than Chrome Silver so that they stand out just a tad from the rest of the car.

That's my current goal. We'll see how it all ends up. I dont like the sparatic CF pieces unless its a black car all over. But until they make CF pieces to match the car colors then this is a means to an end. I am looking forward to the end result.

Sucks that I haven't even driven over a hundred miles in the car since the turbo install. SIGH... Patiently waiting....

Now you need to find the CF version of the nismo bumper, get a CF rear bumper, get the CF doors, and black out those headlights!

Looks good man. Congrats... it will be sick when youre done... I have seen a Z in candly apple red that had a light coat over the CF pieces, man that car was sick. I think it was owned by Atlantic Motor Sports. I dont think it ran very well, but it was a show stopper no doubt.

Thanks man.. I love that effect that has the paint on top of the CF with the CF showing through, sweet as hell..

A&R Autobody is gonna paint it for me. So looks like I'll be buggin you to follow me out to F:T to drop the car off again. Ray said it would be a 2-3 day job. Hopefully, by end of month.
