Hello. My name is Serj and I have been viewing this forum for some time now. I just became a member so I thought I'd share my car and what I have done so far. Nothing major.. just upgraded the wheels to 35th anniversary wheels and painted them myself with a DIY I found on this site. Carbon fiber door handles, Magnaflow exhaust, JWT pop charger, and a few other customizations like the colored emblems and such. Any comments or criticisms will be greatly appreciated. Thanks =)

Oh and welcome to the board, glad to have you. Also just 2 cents, but ditch the stick on carbon door covers

congrats and welcome. i would fill in the holes on your front bumper, shave the front and rear emblems off, remove the tint off the taillights, paint the doorhandles instead of cf overlay, remove the orange accents around wheels (valve cap and caliper), and vacuum your carpet.

Thank you everyone.. I actually got the carbon fiber door covers due to a forum I saw on here and everyone was saying that it`s nice and all.. guess it must have been an old post or something... I was going to do carbon fiber door handle covers and mirrors but i guess that would be a nono?

Welcome to the forum!
I gotta agree with some of the other posts,your mods are a bit over the top.
But hey,its your car...like it...keep it the way you want.Maybe your crowd has similar tastes?
Just my opinion,but the "Halloween" look is good for Oct 31.You got the rest of the year
to drive your Z.But,some people celebrate Christmas all year.So,who am I to say.
You just have too much black going on with your color scheme.The black wheels don't help,(again,my 2 cents--paint over the beautiful OEM wheels--ouch!)...is that Plasti Dip?Carbon fiber is great.I have a ton on my silverstone Z.With a orange car...dunno the match?You have CF covers on the door handles...they are on there.Yeah,you can remove e'm.But,you spent some $$$ on e'm.CF is pretty forgiving on a door handle.If you took e'm off,decided to paint as some suggested,unless you do excellent prep,paint well etc,you will have a royal mess.Its sorta a "too late to turn back" situation.

welcome, nice car to start.
i'd sell the wheels and get back oem finish wheels.
brake caliper = remove 350z decal (kinda redundant) and powdercoat mag blue or just take off the 350z decal and save up for oem brembos.
also not sure what front grill is on the car as one pic looks to have flat surface with ooooo's in it and other pic looks oem. prefer the oem grill to the aftermarket frill.
just my input ontop of what others have mentioned.
