The mine's add-on would look good. Would be funny if you got the CF spoiler and the mine's add-on...lol... maybe Tony will do that.

Very nice AK! I love love love the front!

the fangs overlay looks real good... a great simple alternative to a lip where you can have a unique look but keep OEM bodylines

i like the side mirror covers too i just got some last week for my car... except mine only go at the bottom

Very tastefully done... I need to get me some CF mirror covers.

HKYStormFront · 07-06-2010, 12:52 AM

i hear ya on the mod budget, black yoko advans (like the silver ones on Z1's 370) would look killer too. lots of good choices out there, as much as i like the stock sport wheels, i'd put wheels on next if it were me...

I don't know how I could have missed this?
AK, the cf parts, made the Z look a lot cleaner, and will you also be doing the rear valence, and the rear spoiler?
Very Nice Improvements Ak.

Hey ak if u want an idea on what an oem style cf hood looks like. Check my build thread. Fitment is perfect. Also there is a group buy for mines rear lip and I think we need a couple more people lol.

kenchan · 07-06-2010, 09:58 AM

AK- looking great!

CrownR426 · 07-06-2010, 12:24 PM

What's next gangsta?!

kenchan · 07-06-2010, 12:55 PM

i think either the evo-r revised rear diffuser or fujimura rear diffuser(?)

209Z · 07-06-2010, 02:01 PM

i say revised evo r =]

kenchan · 07-06-2010, 02:13 PM

yah, i suppose if the fitment is subpar (gap), you can get those 3M CF sheets, make a 7mm width stripe and run it along the butting end of the diffuser to close up the gap with the bumper.

then it would look very clean and the curvature will visibly fool 99% of the people who see the diffuser as it will just appear like difference in light reflection. they wont know there is vinyl there...other than you. hahaha.

Hey AK,

Nice work. How does the fang overlay look up near the top of the fangs. In one pic, it looks like some blue paint is still visible. Is this an issue at all, or not noticeable?

2theextreme, you don't mind me asking where did u get your headlights done and how much ?
