nice, I wish we would get a little more snow, instead of the cold. One more day of work and it's off to clinicals with the wife... 3 days in a hotel.. in a foreign town :woot: :happydance:

Also, they want $250 to color match my door handles. :icon14:
Anyone have a hook up out there for color matching?

I rather save that $250 toward the Wheels Piggy Bank

No one around here has a spare set. I'm set on just plastidipping to black this weekend and maybe JAR can help me do my wheels later.

Of course they did... and most of the time they're just saying that because DIYers lose them business. But the PW is difficult to match - if you want to try it, get the PW kits from automotivetouchup.com and at least one extra door handle for the test run.

Save all these small amount of money... then go for a nice set of wheels.

I guarantee the Z will look 20x better will a set of nice wheels than tons of "little"-mods here and there... :tup:

LMBmikeZ 01-29-2013 12:24 PM

:iagree: you need to figure out what wheels you want then kinda go from there IMO :tup:

I am either going to go with a 5-spoke (split spokes) like Nitrouz's Z or I am going to go with some OEM Nismo Wheels and get them powder coated........

Let me know what you think, I guess I might as well start a thread in the general discussion area now. I had been debating for a couple days now if I should or shouldn't but I still can't pick!

The split-spokes one.. looks cool and serious... :tup:

LMBmikeZ 01-29-2013 12:57 PM

I know I love the split spoke...... but something about the Nismo wheels I love.

As you can tell I am a HUGE fan of concave wheels :rofl2:

I really like bronze wheels, but they just don't work on Gun Metallic

I'm about to have the guy ship them to me, and then I'll sell them to Tracie :icon17:

Edit: Nevermind. I don't want 20s.

:iagree: it needs to be a light coloured car, since yours is Gun Metallic it wouldn't work just like it wouldn't work for my 40th either :shakes head:
