Want to see Brilliant Silver 370 with black mods...
 
I'm new on here and have a 09 brilliant silver z. I have been looking for pics of the silver z with black fangs, rear valance, tinted tail lights and 3rd brake light, black headlight housing, and black emblems.

I can't seem to find a picture with all this done and just curious to see what it would look like. The car looks great bone stock, but wanting to add my touch to it to make it stand out like previous cars i've driven.

Any help is appreciated! thanks guys in advance!

huh, check with Triple's. he's done all that!

my exterior bits are CF but have a couple of picts in my albums page if you want to see wat it might look like using black.

864Zbeast 07-01-2011 12:16 PM

Ok thankskenchan

No more input from anyone on the brilliant silver/black combo???

FastPaced 07-03-2011 01:11 PM

Like Kenchan has stated, have you seen Triple's 370? Other than his, if you want to stay with stock parts and want a more "unique" touch, look into some CarbonSignal or UAM Fenders with the CF combo. It's all a matter about what "look" you're looking for and what appeals to your taste.

I have brilliant silver and was looking for the same thing awhile back. I found this guy's album in my bookmarks:

Thanks guys! I'm not too sure I will tint the tail lights if I decide to do the black theme...

TypeOne 07-05-2011 10:25 PM

I don't know if my car qualifies as black mods... but here it is...

I also have a silver 370z and am looking to do similar black mods, if someone can get a picture of one i would appreciate it.

V8Killer 07-27-2011 12:14 AM

Here is a 10 roadster with pearl black emblems, hyper black rays and 25 window tint it that helps.

864Zbeast 07-28-2011 01:44 PM

That roadster looks very nice! I found a member who had the stock Rays powder coated black on the Brilliant silver and it looked pretty good. I think it was Rickey89?

I want to do something to make the car stand out because there are 2 other Brilliant Silver 370 around town.

The silver looks so fresh with no mods. Thought of just doing a drop (H&R springs) and spacers (20mm on all 4) on the sports.

Silver z
 
I liked the looks of the stock model but I wanted mine to look a little mean. That is why I darkened it up. I also put on a Stillen CBE, which I love, and K40 laser defusers. I have 20mm spacers ordered and then I will be through for a while.

Don't know if I wanna do black or gunmetal. Trying to get rid of the chrome. Would the car look good with black or gunmetal emblems and stock wheels?

A can of matte black spray paint. :p

Taped off a ton of newspaper around the grille area, and front sides of the car as well (for overspray), it took a long time to tape it right in the nooks and crannies of the fang area.

I used a paint with a very mild rough finish. It also has 2 coats of clear sprayed over the black. I was concerned that wax would be an issue on the finish but it's just smooth enough that there is no buildup at all. I like the more aggressive look - it brings the focus right to the grille as it should.

I think Triple's and Endgame did their fangs in a nice smooth matte. Someone a while back did a DIY on this procedure but I forget who it was :icon14:

864Zbeast 08-09-2011 12:37 AM

may just black the fangs and rear valance out to get started and feel it out...
