I had those conversations...they go completely different though....

knockoffs is the word you should use, don't be nice!

I'm an a$$hole though

guamspyd3r 08-04-2013 05:11 PM

I had one convo with a guy who had varrstoens and he kept telling me I should've saved money by purchasing varrstoens instead of volks, I hate when convos go south by someone telling me what to do with "MY" ride


And I'm happy you decide to keep the Z Jon...more power to you yo

Navyboy916 08-04-2013 05:29 PM

Jon, just remember hondas were cool when you first started driving and now seeing them no one can actually stand out anymore with hondas or even those slow *** scions. Your car is sick bro. You know I went to the drag races the other night to watch and when I was leaving the only car that cost more then mine was a GTR thats it so at the end of the day they are still driving a honda.:icon18:

^Damn sorry to hear that. Similar thing happned to me. Waited 3 months to get my Mine's spoiler and when I finally received it the wing was...simply put... flawed. But didn't want to wait another 3 months so I just put it on anyway. Sadly disappointed with Mine's. I expected more. :shakes head:

everyones mines wing looks like that... even calvins (dark blue amuse) own was like that and when i went Phillipines 3 years ago there was 3 z34's with all authentic mines wings on their z's when i looked at them upclose to compare to mine... they all looked identitcal a bit faded and whitesh where the screws mount and tiny bubbles also....

did you shoot clear on yours? it makes it look better.... overall my experience with japanese carbon.... they arent the best as clear as the US carbon fiber.... with the exception of VARIS.... jesus they know theyre shiet!!!! clear and shiny all over...

No I didn't do anything except wipe it clean with a brand new microfiber towel :) Not going to do anything further. I want to leave it as it is so I can sell it later if I choose to. I think ZELE makes clean CF products too. :tup:

KaienZ34 08-09-2013 09:22 PM

AAM short tails for cheap-ish good sound and drop some weight in the azz.

Jon, finally saw the ride this morning. You were in tamuning at the light. Looks good bro

simota1 08-22-2013 08:03 PM

thanks man....

OMGWTFBBQ 08-23-2013 12:47 AM

You should save up for an Amuse exhaust. ;)

By the way, Varis and Zele probably have the nicest carbon I've seen out of all of the JDM brands. Also, a lot of JDM carbon is only gel coated, which means you would need to spray on some clear to make it look absolutely perfect, at least from what I've seen.
