Now I'm sure I'm missing a couple things on there but that is the jist of everything I have planned so far for this Z

And if you guys have any suggestions on other parts to go along with the stages I have set up that would be great! As well as with whatever items I left in general, I am looking for some feedback regarding which parts would be best to look into for that modification.


Here are some current pictures of it after the installed parts of Stage 1; yes I know the snapchat ones look like hell. Phone was almost dead last night after I finished and wouldn't let me use my camera app, but it let me use snapchat lol so I just screenshotted from there, was too dark out to take other pictures after I was done cleaning up and getting everything back up to my place.

Thanks everyone in advance!
