I like the G wheels as well! The are forged and made by Rays, can't go wrong there.

If it makes you feel any better, I have an 2004.5 with 46k miles on my PPW.

The one thing that you will find with all Sports cars that sat as low as the 350Z. From Porsche to Vettes they are subject to rock chips on the nose, hood and mirror. They all have this problem a vinly bra or the Clear bar appilcation is the solution, I use the vinly bra. The Clear bra is more appealing one of the benifit of buying used is that the Clear bra may already be applied.

Very nice color! Welcome to the Z club. I am thinking any color RE30s would be good. Gold or bronze specifically.

Oh one more thing to look out for, its common to all Zs.

Rear wheel drive and enough power to spin the tires. Be careful in the wet conditions or when giving it to much power in the turns. This board is filled with stories of "my rear suddenly spun and...", we don't need any more.

Default White Pearl Visual Modd Theme

Hi, just bought an 07 Pearl myself. Have been debating on which visual theme to go for that will best showcase the white finish.

Chrome: ChromeWheels, tail lights, minor interior finish with Nav system, white under body lights for show
Dark: Black rims, smoked tail lights, window tints

I'm leaning more toward the chrome theme but many on the other posts think the chrome tail lights look 'cheap'. I know the darker theme would make the vehicle look more aggressive but may negatively impact the overall class look of the white.

Have you looked at the various examples of PPWs on the PPW picture thread, it might help you decide, there are lots of variations there.

"white under body lights for show"
