I'll be the first to say it because everyone else will agree, wheels gotta go. Who ever repainted the front bumper sprayed the center grill too, black will make it look a lot better. Enjoy the new car though.

 

Congrats and welcome.

 

I would've dug deeper into it's history before trusting that it's not been in an accident... the front has been repainted.
Nice to see a yellow coupe, though!

 

I am not a fan of the wheels, although the gunmetal finish/polished lip is a good theme.

i did notice that. it needs something to break up the monotony. thanks I am really enjoying it! look at the smile on my face. ear to ear, baby.

hey, what kind of wheels do you like? top 3 or 5 please.

 

And in fact, I did dig deeper. I inspected the front end and there are no issues with the reinforcements, mounts, suspension, radiator support, or anything for that matter.

I suspect it was painted to cover rock chips/cosmetic damage. A few bent radiator fins confirms the high speed, freeway miles.

 

tank you. nice looking Z. I like the canards.

 

Welcome!
Really not a fan of the wheels.If anything,may be salvage if you tinted them
a hype black.Looks like the front bumper was touched up.The grille was painted
body color.I'd get it back to black.
Best of luck with your new Z!

 

I'm not going to repeat, but I agree with previous posts. And welcome!

Top 5 wheels would be:
Volk TE37s (look into all variations TE37s SL, TA, etc)
Volk CE28
Volk RE30
AME TM02
and if course, my favvy- Volk GTS. <--- my current wheel in magnesium blue.

Those are my top 5 THIS week

What part of CA are you in?

 

In for sideshot of vehicle to see wheels better

 

Welcome. You should post your pics in the ultra yellow thread. Here https://my350z.com/forum/350z-colors...5-only-21.html

 

Nice z bro, you got a rare color too. Change the wheels and get an 06+ front bumper. Z will be perfect than.

 

Only ever seen a couple. UY is right up there with Brickyard and Interlagos Fire in my book! Personally I say throw some anniversary rims on there, HR front bumper, and call it a day. But I'm a simplistic type with my car.

 

The wheels that I want for my car are Work Emotion CR-Kai/CR Ultimate

I'm in the LA area

 

as you command

i would like to sell these wheels are they are, "not to my tastes," as my friend would put it.

 

everyone seems to like it, surprisingly... maybe they are just being nice lol they don't want to tell me my car looks like a taxi

 

i like the new bumper, but for the wheels...

 

welcome nice Z

 

Nice Z man. Just thought about it and don't think I've ever seen a yellow Z on the road!

 

Welcome. With the brighter colours the from the factory, match of colours between the urethane bumper and metal bonnet/guards, same on the back is not good. Stone chip rectifying is very common, flattish area on the nose is like a water is to a tap.
