I was about to chime in and ask since when does prioritizing mods differently make you a ricer?

.. but I thought about it. in all honesty, a Z with a body kit and stock wheels looks terrible and could be ricey for sure.

there are plenty of wheels that look fine without a drop, so at least do your wheels prior to the kit.

 

Pm'd me back instantly about price quote and responded again with the answers to my questions. Good first impression.

I was just checking up on you greg. Rest assured you will get my business when i decided to purchase. Thanks for the quick pms so far.

Thanks guys. I appreciate the input. This is why i chill in the Mid A. Sure there may be a ton of drama but it gets me through my work days.

Drop is small (tein S-Techs) work emotions CR Kai +20 is what i was thinking for wheels. I was gonna do a make over all in one swoop. Im one of those people who takes forever to decide on ****. (this post is a little bit of my homework before i purchase)

 

The question is.. the the V2 replica Poly-U or FRP? That's what makes the biggest difference in the world. FRP for the ultimate loss...

Not trying to undo someones sales but just saying.. I bought the Poly-U V2 and it is the hotness... And I dont have to worry about cracks and little rock pebble dents all in it...

my. .02 There is a vendor on the boards that does the poly-u bumpers. Perfect fitment...

 

Poly bumper FTW! OMG.. Just ask how many Fiberglass bumpers Anh destroyed...

 

is the frp really that bad?

 

He didn't reply to my PM's either and didn't return my phone call.

 

From what Ive seen most of the time it's just a fancy name for fiberglass. But some vendor like shine auto use a method that really does allow the bumper to flex unlike regular fiberglass.

 

he gave me his cell and told me to give it to anyone who wanted to buy some stuff. Pm me and I will give it to you if you want. He has been more than responsive.

 

+1

 

I would say spend money on "the go first" then the show. I mean its nice to have alot of show but sucks when u have no go. I would work on the go first IMO. I would rather go fast, than look fast.

 

I little bit of show will make it mine though. I would love to wait until the car is "built" but im not sure when if ever it will be. It would just be nice to have something a little different. Im not looking to go crazy just a little personalization.

You guys have given me a lot to think about.

 

Nothing wrong with that. I just like keeping mine a sleeper. Most times when people add body mods it looks nice but it compliments when there is something under the hood. I know i wouldn't get into body mods becuase I wouldn't want to get pegged as a racer by the law.. its already bad enough I have a blk convertible Z and im black... need no more attention than that

 

Blaaah... Just go for the body kit. There's no such thing as you need to have the power in order to have a good looking car. Look at Mike D's car. It's still NA but it has its own personality. I had a body kit and rims way before I went FI and so did Abui01. I don't think we've ever gotten any less respect because of that.

 

I like the sleeper look. As far as anyone is concerned my car only has exhaust and a JWT popcharger.

 

And my car probably runs like 18's on the 1/4 but I get more compliments than Brad Pitt.

 

you are referring to the XB?

 

FRP = hope you have money to fix it all the time due to cracks breaks and everything else.

FRP treated bumpers = dont believe the hype. If they act like poly-u there there must be a reason. Just get the poly-u and call it a mfing day.

But, everyone has to learn the hard way. Interesting to see what you go with first.


As far as show v go. Show gives you instant gratification that the car is unique in your own style. Go gives you a grin from ear to ear cause you effortlessly shifted through two gears and left some biiiaaacccchhhh still trying to double clutch in the left lane.

 

Nah, he be talking about his Z...
he he
