- - The Varis Arising-II kit is growing on me (http://www.the370z.com/exterior-interior/94720-varis-arising-ii-kit-growing-me.html)

So ya some updates from me. Here's where it sits now. They needed to fix a couple things on the driver side along with mounting the wing. Its winter in Chicago so i'm in no real rush to get it home so I haven't bugged them about getting it done. Still debating on whether or not to do a clear bra. Also my brakes are off the car getting powdercoated. The bright red of the ProjectMu brakes really clashes to me.

These are cellphone shots in fluorescent shop lighting.. The blue pearl doesn't even really show up here.

This is fully aired out. Looks like the Varis front bumper is a hair lower than my Amuse bumper. Sideskirts are not as low as Amuse.

You can see how they didn't use the little add on piece on the front bumper to make it line up with the wider front fenders. Came out good.

Ordered the 2015 Nismo headlights from Juan@FontanaNissan. Photoshop of how the headlights should look.

And finally here's a photoshop the wife did of the new wheels and wing.. damn I can't wait. Ordered the Work CR 2Piece in 20's step lip.. couldnt find a good step lip pic but you get the idea.. Ordered late December, hopefully the LA Dockworker strike doesn't delay them too much. :(

dude i just have to say that your Z looks outstanding :drool: awesome work man!

that looks sweet!! your calipers look huge!! lol what size are they? and what color are you painting them?

Let me be the first to say, PHOTOS DO NOT DO THIS CAR JUSTICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A week ago, I got the liberty to see this build in person, and the colors/bodywork done on this car left me speachless. The attention paid to detail, to the small things like painting the door handles, going into indepth details such as molding the front add-on piece from the Varis Fenders that usually go on to the front bumper, the shop widened the front the keep everything flowing clean and evenly. The colors of the paint with the blue pearl in the clear of the red with the pearl of the red evenly distributed in the clear over the CF pieces.

Suchhhh an epic build, and hats off to Gene for the scheme, and the bodyshop that did the work. Absolutely gorgeous build that I'm just thankful I'm able to see in person with it being right here in the Midwest.

Are you talking about the last picture ?

Liquid_G - damn that's a beautiful Z.....

Gene - The car looks awesome man! Well worth the time and money.

Are those craftsquare mirrors?

Also I never realized your car was that low - did you go for bags?

Liquid - that thing looks crazy! Love it.

I wonder how it would look if I got just the front and fenders (maybe skirts too) to go with my Amuse.

:eek: sickkkkk! :eek:

The calipers in the last pic are part of the photoshop.. Mine are 6pt Slim 4pt standard calipers from Project Mu. Bought from a member here who used to own an awesome Zele G37 several months ago. Was a custom kit that he worked with PMU on to piece together. They'll be a silver, with the logo in a similar shade of red as the car.

Yes mirrors are Craftsquare TCA-F. Super useful because of the convex glass.

And yes its bagged, I installed Airlift Performance's full digital kit mid last year. Loving it.
