I wonder what it would look like with reflective red instead?

I think the color is really nice that's for sure. Just the fact that is reflective is not my cup of tea.

Are you getting anything for the DRL? I think I'll be getting the ones from evo-r.

Reflective Tape
 

I completely understand your reservations about the tape. Keep in mind it's impossible to take an accurate picture of it. It's something you need to see in person. It's really just the orange with some POP when light hits it at different angles.

Below are the YouTube videos that sold me on the idea. Gives a slightly better representation of what the end product's capable of...

Orange:

This one has a bunch of different colours, including the red which looks sick too:

I stayed with orange because of the interior. Keep in mind it's just tape and you can peel it off easily.

Regarding the DRL's, my body shop guy did some mesh work and painted everything black. If there is a solution that does not cost $2,000, I'm all ears.

Shout out to Joe at ZSpeed for hooking me up with the parts!

Cheers,

Did you see the evo-r DRL for the Nismo Kit? They are about to release them... Should go for around 320 and they look alright. Should look up the thread here in case you are interested.

Carbon Signal has a DRL option and full lip kit for the 2015.

That's cool. I take it it's 320 for the pair and you need to get them painted?

I believe they haven't released the DRL Kit... They don't even have pricing yet. It actually looks like evo-r will release something sooner.

i used the stock under shroud, just made some cut outs so the front would bend easier since it's 1.5" lower. i did buy the nismo fender liners.

i also picked up this nismo emblem from the dealership. it was like 15 dollars. the holes didn't line up but i just made a hole for them.
it looks pretty close to the real one that's 100 dollars more.
i bolted it on. but i guess you can cut out the mounting bosses and use double sided tape.

Now we know it's possible on the base as well.

May I ask what skirts are those?

what are those bits on the side by the wheels? Doesn't look like a full sideskirt. Do we have another picture from a different angle?

they're these Fits Nissan 370Z 2009 2015 Couture Vortex Sideskirts | eBay

Yup, it's the couture vortex sideskirts . I'll get more angles posted in the morning!

This time next week I hope to be sharing some finished pics :tup: :yum:

http://i677.photobucket.com/albums/v...psx54nduoy.jpg

They aren't bad. Would look best, molded.

What Side skirts are those? Looks great dude!

Thanks! It's made by Couture and called "Vortex". Honestly, I saw it on eBay and was kinda on the fence about em' because I haven't seen a 370z with one on and kinda took a chance on it. I'm thinking about getting the side blade still and incorporating it somehow.. Still debating

......

:tup:

What are you doing for the rear pin stripe?
I'm about a week or 2 behind you:driving:

I hope to share some progress shots in next day or two, better yet I hope by end of the week I can show it all done!

After following this thread for so long and getting the bumper on in June I don't think I ever posted my finished pictures...

LOOKS BAD A$$ DUDE! :drool:

looks reay good, i see you are from the uk could you tell me where you got the bumper?:hello:

Looks amazing!!

Quick Question for those that have replaced the rear bumper with the newest Nismo bumper. Is it plug and play or does it require new brackets and new fender liners?

It's probably just me but I really think it looks better w/o the red accent

Wow those pictures really have me thinking about getting the new nismo front for mine. Looks awesome!

I'm right there with you.

Anyone have a full parts list for the swap yet?

Read the thread. It's all here.

Looks great! What did you do in the DRLs space? It's hard to tell from those pictures. Also, what sideblades are those and did you just paint the red accents black?

You can see in the second picture that DRL area is just left blank.

Did he add a mesh or something or is it completely blank?

Did a quick PS job over gt10zzz's z in case anyone was wondering what the red accents would look like on a gunmetal Nismo conversion. I also filled in the DRL holes which a body shop could do.
