Isn't that the idea of a show car..to be seen rather than be looked upon as just "another" run of the mill Z? A few 1st place trophies from HIN and other shows has to say something..and being in a nationally recognized/respected club such as Jinsoku as well.

All in all most of the negative responses I expected given the usual crowd that trolls here(ignorance might be bliss, but please follow this icon's example ..it will make the world a better place )..so not surprised..those with positive comments, I as well as the Mrs. appreciate them

Yea I think it looks pretty good... Props on originality

Realistically every other z I have seen with a custom paint job has looked like poo poo to me...

Your wife's is custom and flashy without being ridiculous

The turbo doesn't hurt it either haha

But yes make a new vid with your wife actually driving the car and then everyone will love it lolol

Also... Pics of said wife.. haha jk good work op

Honestly,

your car is different compared to what you said "run of the mill" Z's. Being that this is your car and you customized it to how YOU saw fit and how YOU wanted it, you have to also realize that not everyone is going to love your taste. It comes with the territory of moding vehicles.

Your car is different in it's own way, it has it's own style and isn't a bad build, there are way worse out there. You have to learn to take comments from people with a grain of salt and move on. Truth be told, showing pictures of trophies and awards would have been best posted in your original post as apposed to using them as a defence mechanisim.

We all hate it when people make fun of our projects and our taste but thats the way the world is and EVERYONE is going to jump on you and give you a hard time now that they know they can get you worked up.

Remember it's your own personal taste and not everyone is going to be a fan, it's your car, your build, be happy for yourself and try not to flash your trophies off to make your car "worthy" of compliments cuz all it does is back fire on a person.

All that said, it's a one of kind and isn't another run of the mill z, good job on your build.

The only thing that I don't like is the front bumper, everything else is nice.

Also, I really like the wheels.

Looks like someone can't handle criticism very well.

for your information my wing serves a purpose and it's very functional when i drive on the track. i'm guessing you never take yours to a roadcourse.

Look, it's cool car either way and I bet it's fun to drive. It's just "different". I think what makes your car a touchy subject is that it has a lot going on, maybe too much. Anyways, enjoy YOUR Z.

I like the wheels and the stance, not a fan of the color scheme though and all those stickers are a bit overkill IMO. Just offering some constructive criticism. If your happy with it though, that's all that matters.
