Default considering some Work Varianzas for the Z...

I want a very clean and simple look, upscale but not too busy, so I am considering the Varianzas for my Z. My friend disagrees, and thinks the Varianzas belong on a G or an IS, something of that nature; basically, something more refined than a Z. Personally I think they would match well. I PSd them on my own car to get an idea how they would look, and I think it satisfies what I'm going after. I also need to install my Sportlines, so for this PS I lowered it when I added the Varianzas.

Original:





Varianzas:




I am planning on doing a Veilside V1, so I did my best on the side underwings and front lip (I didn't have a source pic to copy from at a correct-enough angle, so I had to create these from my original pic):




Yay or nay? Look out of place or not? Looks clean or "yoyoyo homie" G'd out?

Oh, and spare me the "get whatever you like" comments. Ultimately I will get whatever I like, whether it's these or something else, regardless of others' opinions. Doesn't mean I don't want positive and/or negative feedback first.

With the vs lip kit, a low drop, and in 19's, it would look sick.

You sir have some good photoshop skills

I'm no trackstar, so yes, that's pretty much what I'm going for It's going to be a while before I get new wheels now anyway, have more expenses coming up than what I thought...oh well.

Hate to say it but I like the 20's, hell the new GTR has 20's if I recall correctly. Also, I actually like the center exhaust as well. Go for the 20's... I am starting to notice that 20's are actually cheaper or at least on par with the 19's cost wise.

By the way, if your looking for a cheaper way to go, the Sevas and a couple other wheels have the same style for a lot less money. I think the Sevas S22 are available for 1500 in 20's and look just like that.

I've considered the Sevas (although I'm not a fan of the S-22; I like the S-7 and S-Star though)...I think they look great for their price, I could do a 19/20 setup WITH tires, WITH shipping for what the Works will cost me wheels alone.

The only thing I'm NOT happy with is the available widths and very few offset options; I think 9.5 is as wide as they go. I want to do a 10.5 in the rear if at all possible, although the guy here with the red Z with gold S7s has a decent rear lip...I dunno, just want to do something more aggressive if possible. We'll see though, it's going to be longer before I get another set of wheels than I previously thought...

oh as for the center exhaust: if I could get it to actually LOOK like that I would consider it, very Viper-ish. I just don't think that real-world it would look like that...and I don't like any of the pre-built center exhaust systems. I'll probably just get a Nismo and call it a day
