Default Modifying Addicted Pics

Hi havnt posted on here for a while, sold my Z 2 months ago had alot done to it, and with the money bought another Z to modify again starting from scratch. Im mad I know lol, here are some pics of my old Z with listings:



















Mods:
350z 2005 GT Gunmetal
Veilside V3 wide bodykit blended spray job
Nismo spoiler
20" RS8 alloys
Leather retrim red seats
Leather retrim black dash and door interior panels
Apple Mac carputer install with wireless internet and bluetooth
Lambo Doors
15inch sub custom install
Alpine headunit
HKS induction.

Unfortunatly apart from the apple instal, I bought the car as it is for a bargin and sold it for quite a bit of profit. With the money I bought a 2005 Kuro black 350z and have just bought a lot of items including volks gts from Adam@z1auto.com. As I figured I will never fully appreciate my car unless I modify it myself, so I am going for a pretty mad mod at moment including more engine mods like HKS FCon IS remap and nos, so watch this space will post pics once all done and link to youtube video. In the UK 350z are a lot more rarer than US so even a standered 350z gets noticed. My brother has also bought the same colour Z as me and we are modifying exactly the same with similar reg plates. Going for that Dejavu look which will be a first in the UK

Hope to get a lot of info on here and inspiration. Cheers all wish me luck

Ah, which one of your statements is correct and how mad are you? Just curious. Interesting photos.

How about one of your new Z and your brother's matching Z together for a "before" pic? Then after you both mod them("we are modifying exactly the same") you could take an "after" pic. It would be quite unique anywhere, not just the UK.

Got the pics of before they are both Kuro black with Tan leather interior, sorry am dyslexic so things may seem to contradict, I bought the car with the kit for 19k it had alot done to it I was really lucky to get it at that price, put the apple install in and sold it privatly for 26500K. Angry with myself as have a tendency not to hold on to a car that long and thought this would be the one Id keep as had so much done to it but when I realised what I could get profit it had to go, plus prefer black cars

I think that was the ugliest Z I have ever seen. Please do not ruin your next one with a POS body kit like that.

That is one of the hottest Z'z I have ever seen on this site. Way to be different. I don't see any my350z.com "Prerequiste Mods" anywhere. Love the whel set up. How much were they?

Hi all Hi Bronzee you are everywhere lol

Yeh miss this car a bit, the seats were retrimed full leather from a leather specialist so the previous owner told me. The wheels I bought they were not very expensive got them as was selling the car and the originals were curbed really bad so bought these really cheap of a friend for 600. They were 20".

I think it was one of them cars that you either liked or hated, either way it turned heads, including cops who stopped me just so they could get their picture taken next to it lol.

The new setup will be much better, its all black going for a very stealth yet serious look that im sure will be to everyones taste once set up. Will get pics up here as well as my local club www.350z-uk.com


Just got the wheels on the badboy now thanks to Adam@z1, Fcon hks and nos is in prosess and body kit, I like to be a bit ballsy so see how it goes

Wow that Z looked pretty hot, obviously show car status, but nice mods nonetheless, I have seen the same look ruined by bad work and bad choices in accents... That silver tint for the tailights was sick. Sick in a good way, not sure if you knew that

Unfortunatly in the UK we are very much limited on what we can buy over here, even on a Headunit change we still have to order from the USA to get the harness adapters as no one does them over here, same as Nismo exhaust.

My new 350z which is Kuro black I ordered the following from the States:

Body Kit
Carbon Bonnet
Volk GTS Diamond Black Centre 5 spoke 9.5x19 and 10.5x19
Nitrous Xpress
Carbon interior
Nismo exhaust
Plenum
High Flow cats

So much more to get yet pictures will be shown once done, it will look 10 times better than my last Z
