awesome build.

Love it all color coded in blue!

Where did you get the front splitter?

Thanks! I love the color combo as well especially with door handles painted to match. Front splitter was from a member here from FNG PERFORMANCE

I was hoping for some more feedback/Input from everyone!!!

Can someone chime in regarding the wrap? I have the matte Carbon fiber on the hood and roof, and am planning to remove from the hood altogether as I think it would look much better.

I'm considering doing the roof and pillars in Gloss Black instead. What do you guys think?

Also, anyone seen a Z with the whole hatch wrapped also? I'm wondering if that'll look good - what do you think?

I think leave the cf on the hood and pillars and go back to blue on the roof would look pretty sharp.

I initially had it like that. I am definitely removing from the hood. the reason for re-doing the roof would be due to all the real carbon fiber on the car is gloss, and the matte doesn't fit in.

How did you tint the tail lights reverse lights? I like it a lot

TriNismo · 06-06-2016, 12:41 AM

How difficult was it to install the Amuse strut bar? Looks good. I'm thinking about doing it but there's no DIY instructions on here

Yes they are overlays. Any tint shop can install or you can do yourself with the right tools.

- I had it done along with the body kit/seats

TerribleONE · 06-07-2016, 10:59 AM

Nice

ZAtlanta_OG · 06-07-2016, 12:13 PM

not a fan of the a/b pillar would look good body color.

but i love everything else. seats look great.

SlyZGuy · 06-09-2016, 04:45 PM

took the wrap off and re-did roof only in Gloss. I think it looks MUCH better. Stil contemplating B-Pillar. Also, did light smoke over existing cutout on the entire tails - very subtle difference but looks good

Voice59 · 06-09-2016, 05:25 PM

That looks damn good!
