^Correct. I always had the intention of adding something, it just needed to get this far first before I could decide what to do next. And really I'm glad I did cause this was really hard to picture since every flat black Z has looked like hell thus far. I expected the result to hold me over for awhile so that I could focus on performance and spend more time letting it stew but the more I think about it the more I want to change it up now. And the more I think about it the more I don't know what to do lol!
Matte black is hard to design. Everything ends up looking way different than you expect, and you cant use CF cause it would look terrible (unless it was Dry CF). I have some ideas but $ is becoming an issue
The rims look a little off because he just needs some tire shine.... lol.
I cant believe no ones ever seen shaved door handles before... poppers anyone? Before I bought my Z I swore I would shave the handles as a first mod... but never did. I think the shaved handles are sick.
As for graphics, I know a couple years back sport compact car did a matte black s13 w/ gloss black vinyl graphics... it looked sick.
I wouldnt change much on that car and I like that front bumper, but if you were going to change some things I would say more drop and top secret front bumper for sure. (nismo v2/v3 FTL). or you could always get some factory emblems and spray em in the same matte finish... or a gloss black finish to contrast. A BBK would also look bad *** under those wheels... something like chrome greddy grex to match the lips.

^ I agree with the BBK. Not so sure about the chrome ones though. Ive seen a couple of Z's with the black Wilwood brakes and those would look sweeeet on your car. Gloss black vinyl graphics would be much easier to do than my stupid combination paint job suggestion! It's all about the details for you now...I think you need some kind of emblem of some sort just to badge it. I still think the stock 350Z emblem looks clean and classy, even though I have the Fairlady emblem!
