I would prefer something that would get rid of the front bumper its just ugly! keeping with the zele style of smooth would be nice. En-longating the front bumper Slightly would look nice too.

To much ? LOL then you dont know Veilside I take it.

Thats exactly why I ask to go something along the lines of Zele because Veilside is usually much more over-the-top.

Again, I'm not asking for a clone...But I would like to see a kit that isnt lower than the dimensions of the stock bumpers. You can still create something spectacular within the limits of that size. Thats, another reason why I like the Zele, because it doesnt appear they created a bumper that drags across the floor on a stock suspension setup, LOL.

You know what I think might look stealth/awsome would be if they can some how create a front bumper for the Z based on the Prototype of the GTR - with carbon fiber vents like the proto has.

thanks for all the ideas guy.. i am forwarding this all to the designer.. so any other feedback would be very useful for anyone looking for a kit in the future

I know Veilside all too well... And typically do not like their styling... Like that horrible RX7 for FF3...

Just hoping a well known company will give us something that will simply compliment the current Z's lines, not detract and cause utter confusion; or say LOOK AT ME!!! This Z does not need that.

And.. I like the fangs...

How about air vents that slash down from the outside bottom front lights into the bumper to make a z shape?

Also how about an angled Ferrari F40 type spoiler that forms from the huge rear arches and over the rear lights?

keep the feedback coming!.. heres an email responding to some of the feedback..

Hi Marco,

Thanks for giving us the feedback from the forums, as well as your personal opinions. As you can see for yourself, the consensus amongst the many is NEVER along a single line. This is what makes building parts very difficult and challenging, as well as fun to say the least. But we always understood that we can never make anything to please every single person. If we make something something along a widebody then someone complains it's too expensive, if we make a lip then it's too simple, too low, etc, etc, etc.

But, this is what we do and we will do our best to make something that the market demands. Since we are designing in-house now, we have quite a bit of say in what we make. You will be welcome to come to the shop while we get down and dirty shaping the parts. We'll talk more when the time comes, but please do keep spreading the word and get more feedback. It's always great to have direct feedback in regards to what we are making so the market can at least expect something along what they wish. Thanks again.

at least for this kit I will have the opportunity to use everyone's feedback and apply to the production that way everyone will be pleased

Cool i hope the lip doesn't stick out too much maybe 2 inches at the most and hopefully the lip is thin and not thick. I think the jnext is too thick when viewed from the side.

DJ I would love to see a new front bumper that would incorporate the shape of the new Nismo Design but be more subtle on the sides. Low simple and flowing side skirts are a must similar to Zele's design. I think with the extra pronounced bulge for the rear wheel arches a veilside version 3 style rear bumper is a good start. Also a rear wing that is based off of the sport kit wing but is extended like the mines would be sweet with the center higher and the sides even or slightly lower than the oem.

I will do some PS Chops for you to hand over to the designers :D

The intake on that second shot (white) looks like some sort of large mouth fish, lips and all. Not digging it.

Staying tuned DJcuetip!
