a sport caliper I powdercoated last week
 
A little different, black with a JDM style nismo logo, I kind of like it!:

Nice!

thats not a bad idea...but thatd be total overkill for anyone with a nismo z :icon18:

lets count where nismo is visible on the current nismo 370z:

1. performance damper in the front grill - clearly visible if you look into the opening
2. driver seat
3. passenger seat
4. speedometer
5. # plaque
6. each wheel (i could count it as 4 times...but i wont)
7. rear emblem
8. engine cover - if you happen to open the hood..

yikes!

Since I don't have these things anymore, I can get my calipers powdercoated and it won't look as tacky! :tup:

thats assuming you dig around. someone glancing at your car or seeing it drive by wouldnt see most of that. Just the ones on the caliper and the one on the back of the car.

Is there Nismo on the manual also?:bowrofl:

Hey thats my caliper. Thanks again mike I tried to be a little different from what I have seen. Also it's going on a non nismo edition 350z.

SmoothZ 05-10-2011 08:28 PM

Hell, Mike. I still have my calipers from when you did them back in 2004. Still looking good!

hdskull 05-10-2011 08:33 PM

That'd look hot on a black car or a car with black wheels!

Nismo69 05-10-2011 08:46 PM

It's going on a chrome silver z with black wheels.
