I don't know about in 2002 or 2003 when it first came out but when I went in 2006 it was pretty much 350Z's all over

^^^ love the car! the idea for the vents is a good one but I feel it tries to take too much from the GTR design and is too close to the wheel well but that may be the lighting in the pic that makes me think that. Other than that Great concept!

Very nice DJ..love the slr side vent looks..

DJcuetip · 11-04-2009, 01:03 PM

thanks guys.. i know some may flame me for the vents.. but when going with the concept of the kit i wanted something reallllly aggresssive and mean looking.. ill get more pics up when i can.. as for the nismo kit.. like i explained earlier this isnt the kit that is made with the rest of the kit.. the front bumper/side skirts/ rear bumper all got stuck in customs in china and we used nismo kit for now.. but the partially painted black lip nismo kit turned out great!

DannyGT · 11-04-2009, 01:15 PM

Indeed it did! You might re-think that other kit, haha.

I was thinking about getting the CF version of the kit and painting it identically to that and leaving the CF exposed where its black on yours. I bet that would look great on PG.

It looks like the Nismo-S kit, right? Not the Nismo (factory) kit.

Corerct, its the S-Tune lip kit...not the Nismo bumpers.

DJcuetip · 11-04-2009, 02:12 PM

ooo yes that it my other option i have a lot of hard decision to make at the end of the month.. i believe for my troubles they will give me a choice of receiving the original kit, or a nismo lip in cf.. and of course it would be painted the same..

im like 50/50 on what to do.. but no doubt it will look good on pg.. i think everyone should paint the nismo lip this way.. makes a huuuuuge difference

I've been told that would look good even on my Nismo (non-S) bumper lip. Even with the PW paint I think it would look good considering the contrast of the black tires, windows, grille, etc against the paint. Not really brave enough to try it, but with the amount of dings I ALREADY have in my bumper I can forsee a repaint in the future.

Thanks. I'm interested to see your write up on them then, assuming you get them.
