Default VQ35HR Radiator Cooling Panel - Color Options?

Hi guys - we're going to be making some aluminum cooling panels for the 2007-2008 350Z coupe/convertible/NISMO edition, due to the lack of ones on the market. As many have found out, the ones designed for previous year Z's won't fit unless modded, and for such a simple piece, we're of the opinion that modding shouldn't be required

So, to start off, we're going to offer 2 colors. But we need you to tell us what those 2 colors should be!

Please, no discussions of pricing, eta, etc - this isn't the thread for that. Once the relevant details are set, we'll formally make a for sale thread in the appropriate section. For now, let's just keep it to colors.

Red, Blue, Black, Grey, Silver, Gold, others

Yeah, I hope you go with anodize.

I'd like to see Red, but I chose Black and Silver. I'd guess more people'd be interested in those colors.

You can't leave out polished aluminum! It gives people the option to have it anodized any color they choose I would definitely buy one and have it anodized to the color I choose.

polished is not going to be an option - too time consuming and expensive to do for such a small piece.

How about brushed?

ed: Also, I think gold would be SICK. But there aren't enough other parts that come in that color, so I'm not so sure that color would be popular in the long run.

Thank you Z1 for stepping up...I ordered some parts from you and really had a great experience with your company and customer service!!! THANK YOU! I chose RED/SILVER, those colors both seem to work with almost all Z color schemes.

you guys can also offer it in a raw finish for the people that want custom finishes so that they can polish/paint/brush/whatever else is out there themselves...

Black for me plz. Will it be the same size as the ARC or expand out towards the intakes like other brands? Either way, I'm in.

Hmmm

Brushed, red, black would be cool.

I would have to pick brushed or black on my black car though.

Is it going to be plain or is it going to have your logo on it?

Is it going to cover the whole front or is it going to only be for the center?

undecided at this time

it will be the center portion only, as everyone has different intakes, which require different amounts of clearance.
