Looks great, minus the wing, but to each his own on that as always.

function over form

The fascia looks as good as I thought it would!

Mike

Thanks guys!!!!! I'm really happy with the way it came out.

I know the wheel coloring might not be to everyone's liking, and that is cool. I like it, and it showcases my powdercoating skills.

As for the wing, that too might be a little over the top for a street car, but I spend as much time on the track as I do the street with this car, and the wing is extremely functional.

I have instructed Forged to lower the car 1.25" front and 1" rear. My track tires lower me 1/2" as it is, and I have 2" clearance on my trailer, so a total 1.75 front should still let me load without scraping.

In addition to those coilovers, I also bought the eibach (SPC) front and rear adjustable camber/toe/caster kits.

Looking good Mike! Figure out a way to add some front brake ducting with that new fascia?

Stillen is supposed to be coming out with that soon, I think it will entail adding fangs back in.

That front bumper looks sweet. I'd have to see it in person to sign off on ordering one, but since you have black and I have black, its making it really tempting.

And as for the wheels, I prefer black on black myself so no love lost here. Z looks great!

Are you thinking of doing any sort of headlight mod?

My track wheels are satin black. I actually like them better myself too. Thinking about headlight mods. I did them on my 350 myself. Should have done hole car was in the shop

i hope you are going twin turbo to complete that look. looks empty without a intercooler

^^ that might actually make it look better imo. as much as i am not a fan of the "fangs" i can see that it would help make the lines flow better for the front clip for those who don't have a huge FMIC up there
