I want these very bad. What can I do?

Lol, I don't mean to sound pushy, I'm just excited to start modding my Z, the economy has put alil delay on my modding, I'm going to order the G3 intakes this week + possibly have my taillights tinted or painted(not sure), I wanna give the car a real clean black & white contrast look. And hey us PW 370Z owners have to stick together right, lol

If you are looking for the black and white contrast, you are going for the same thing I am. If my wheels ever get here I've got black wheels, dark tint, and blacked out headlights. Interested to see the back end of this with the tinted tails and rear valence

Jonathan ya hear me im taking pics today! lol all kidding aside I am going for a real clean look just remember I was the first!!!

nogoodname · 09-04-2009, 12:24 PM

glass guy, what's going on in there....lol

bullitt5897 · 09-04-2009, 12:46 PM

Nogood lets just say some things happened to the car that had to get fixed so several areas of the car had to be fixed and repainted along with a spoiler replacement and many other parts being replaced. I am not a happy camper in that aspect of my car's build but I cant speak any higher of the quality work Artcraft has done to make this car look brand new again (Artcraft did NOT do the damage FYI).

Don't ask me what happened as I have worked out a deal with the party who damaged the vehicle. If they fall through on their part there will be a huge thread on it. But so far they have reassured me of their stance to make things right so with that I will let the water go under the bridge. This is one of the problems with taking your car to multiple shops and being a first adopter sometimes sh!t happens even to the best of us.

nogoodname · 09-04-2009, 01:36 PM

oh ok..... hope for the best.... well, actually... dont hope for the best
demand for the best...lol

bullitt5897 · 09-04-2009, 05:51 PM
