Whats this??

i think ill be getting another photoshoot after the bars install and probably when i get a hood from CS MAYBE ill be sure to get pics in the outside so they will be bright

ill keep you posted man

also the bars is just a prototype that gt spec created and type one was the first one to try it out on a z... i think they didnt proceed with mass producing it due to lack of interest for it.... but its basically a stiffener and connects to the strut towers.. i dont track nor race my car but i think it looks awesome

That bar looks Heavy Duty, real nice!

Z is looking awesome, one of my favourites...I have CF envy of your Z lol.

ill definitely paint the blue parts wrinkle red or maybe wrinkled black or a hammered effect...

i laughed when i saw this on fb..... occasionally i get people who try to convert me to hella flush the **** outa my car... and i tell them tires are expensive for the z because they arent f*cking 17''s or 18''s not to mention im pretty sure this fad will die out like the whole neon underbody, big *** body kits with holes everywhere...

Worst car fad since...

im glad that one didnt make it over here lol^^^^

simota1 · 10-13-2012, 03:41 PM

my bars are in hawaii!!!!!!

freaking stoked... i cant thank type one enough... he sent it express

... so ive realized one thing though.... since the bars are going in i dont think the z enclosure can stay.... it will hit

so looks like ill be trying to make outa fiberglass a custom enclosure.....

i HATE doing those lol

simota1 · 10-13-2012, 11:04 PM

also guys ive been missing my gtr scoops on my hood for quite some time now... also i have been thinking back and forth about the CS hood... but the whole im gonna down my z again so that they can mold the hood vents on and so on and so forth is not that appealing to me

so im more in favor of just cutting my hood again

sooooo to go a different route what do you all think of this...

CARBON FIBER PORSCHE 2010-2012 PANAMERA 970 VENTED BONNET HOOD AIR INTAKE SCOOPS | eBay

i stumbled upon this accidently i googled carbon vents and this popped up.... i think the body lines of the hood would pull off this look well. What do you guys think?

Mr&Mrs · 10-13-2012, 11:38 PM

They do flow with the hood, im just not a fan of that style vent. I think Fly1Motorsports has a hood coming out with this kind of vent style. It looks pretty sick. You can see it kind of on the last page. Fly1 Motorsports "RS1 Vented Fenders"!!!

thanks man... ive seen his hood... and man its tastey!!! but the only thing is i dont wanna deal with throwing my stock hood or storing it because i have no space for it... thats why im leaning towards the cut hood and put vent route..... the vents on the ^^^^ isnt too aggressive thats the only downside....

I don't like it but that's just my opinion.

Go For the vents I always get people saying "where you get that hood?" And not a lot of people have seen it.
