Default New Z owner in KY

2004 Base 6mt 90k miles
Bought the car this time last month but was salvaged and had to replace hood and front bumper cover. But she is finally on the road today.
(Thinking of removing paint and polishing the wheels.)

Welcome and congrats!

I myself just obtained a set of 18" G35 wheels. They go hand-in-hand with the Z IMO. I think the black looks good with your setup now.

What's your setup with the wheels (spacer offset and drop), or is it stock? Looking to do this at some point.

Enjoy!

Welcome!
The color &wheel combo now on your car looks good,very popular
especially with the black roof.Have the wheels been painted?Or,
are did they come stock that way?Think it would be easier to sell e'm
as black than get them polished(if possible).Get new ones.
Not many color options when it comes to wheels to go with your car's color.

Black with LMS looks great imo. Good contrast.

IMO the orange z's look really nice and the setup you have now looks pretty good espicially with the tinted windows. Have you considered blackin out the emblems?

Looks good, but I'd ditch the black wheels IMO. I'm just not a fan at all of Z's that are going for the murdered-out look! When I bought mine the tails, reverse lights and front reflectors were all blacked out - along with the front emblem! After replacing all that and taking the car back to stock, I'm loving it! :thumb up: Enjoy that orange Z, I LOVE the color!

The car looks good and dont do polished. The work to keep the shine up after is not worth it. If you want that look I'm sure someone out there our trade you their stock G35's for your black ones. The car looks great and I love the black roof. I'll be doing that to mine vary soon.
