They did name the kit "Vestito" which means dress/suit in Italian, so you're not far off.

Is that suppose to be funny? Well i dont have the amuse kit so i dont really care if i see one on the streets.

But i guessed you missed one of the points of having an aftermarket kit anyways. And for scenario, its more like seeing a guy wearing a dress.

Actually you missed my point that most men would not complain when another is wearing the same shirt. And yes it was funny but I don't need your approval.


Back on topic...Don't care what car has the Amuse kit it still looks badass to me!

if you make a decision based on what other people have on their rides, vs what you want for your own ride.. your doing it wrong.

P.S Amuse kits existed before the 370z. 350z also etc... so its not like they are trying to copy us..

Missed my point completely but i get what you are saying.

And i do believe there are specific amuse kits for each models but they just make the 370z version fit on the gen coupe

I think Amuse Rear and Raptor Front would be my pick. I don't think anyone would mistake a 370Z for a Gen3.

IMO, That thing looks like garbage. This is "replica" to a whole new level. Amuse has had kits for different cars, but the Vestito kit was designed for the 370Z. The lines and proportions are just way off and takes away what makes the kit look good on the Z. If I worked at Powerhouse Amuse and saw this thing, I"d be seriously pissed.

I've seen a camero with a lambo body kit.... Nobody confuses the two when they are side by side lol. I would say the same with my cf amuse kit Compared to this thing... I second the hate for hyandi. First they wanted to be like Honda, then mercedes with the fake s-class now this . Lol
