:rolleyes: yah yah... i know lol... a couple people been hating on that bracket... but i still like it lol....

thats a cheap mod though bro 5 bucks.... BUTTTT i would never do that to the z... i think there was a thread on that already and i agree looks like you got into a front end collision and the hood is not aligned lol...

Besides having minimal underhood heat reduction I have no doubt...it also looks just plain stupid lol.

:o i only have eibach springs.... its weird though because i think my set settled lower like have a inch lower i dunno why though? i wanna get some coil overs though :tup: in the future....

Yours looks so much lower than mine does on eibachs, crazy. Guess it's the front spoiler (which I don't have) and obviously the side skirts. I've noticed mine have settled some more in the last couple thousand miles so yeah maybe they're not done yet.

UPDATE guys..... alright... i wanna start off by saying all the parts of my car that really bothers me.... im really bummed out that the engine bay is practically pink.... or a really light red because of the heat in the damn bay... it really sucks that there is no clear in there... second the paint on the z's are crap... im sooo irritated how i gently wash it and always buy brand new packs of microfiber towels.... just as a precaution not to put swirls... but i end up putting swirls on it anyways... the paint is sooo soft.... i always gotta buff her everyweek end because i dont like seeing fine scratches on my car... it just bothers me so much... i dont even drive my car as much anymore LOL because i dont wanna have to wipe her down and put more swirls or scratches.... and now... there is like i think three 3 red z's that look like me.... :( my friend confirmed that he saw a different one with similar mods as me... with that said.... i already talked to my painter.... my car will be downed for a month... we are going to change the color.... im not gonna say what the color is... but it aint red... lol im gonna pull all the glass off the car and what ever else is needed to pull out to make sure the paint job is the best of the best..... the money i saved for the supercharger will go to this.... on the bright side... the sc is still in its early stages and it gives everyone time to work out the kinks in it... i will still sc but probably early next year or late this year.... i hope you guys are stoked... because i sure am.... :D just waiting on two cars to get finished then my car rolls into the shop.... :tup:
