JDM tail lights on PW look great.

can you notice more of a wheel gap now that you have installed spacers with no drop. I want to get spacers but an afraid of the wheel gap looking larger due to the wheel being closer to the fender. I dont plan on dropping the car in the near future. maybe sometime down the road when i have more disposable income.... im sure installation costs are pretty high for springs

I believe adding spacers actually reduces the look of the gap.

On a slightly more serious note:

Has anyone ever used (or seen) the space between the hood ridges as a "racing stripe"??? You know like basically filled the space between ridges......if I get a nice weekend I thought about using Plasti-Dip to see how it would look. Also ordered the Plasti-Dip glossifer, hopefully that comes soon.

I think you should check out the member's Z section. There are a lot of modded white Zs there

That's a pretty sick drawing, but hopefully I would like to end up with something like this.

I personally like the 40th anniversary gunmetal wheels with carbon fiber fags and diffuser.
Black wheels hide wheel diameter and detail IMHO

sfearl1 · 12-06-2011, 10:04 AM

^^ yep. carbon fangs, black headlights/roof, mine's spoiler extension, gunmetal wheels, tinted windows, spacers/springs

call it a day.

KaienZ34 · 12-06-2011, 10:40 AM

Cloudy day makes them look black but they are gun metal.
