Post Amuse on a Black Z

So im leaning now, As soon as winter passes im gonna grab a z with the money im gonna get for selling my car. I found a 2012 black z with 100 miles on it 29k.
And a 2011 white z with 20k miles 29k same price.

Now if i were to put an amuse kit on both cars, which would look better.

There was a pick with black z with amuse but it was a matte black finish. WHICH LOOKED SO SEXY!!!!

But I always told myself white will make me happier in the end. shoot a z would make me happy regardless.

But white z with amuse doesnt look anywhere near as good as the black z with amuse.

Any suggestions?

What if i put a carbonfiber amuse kit on black z without any matte paint finish?

And if i were to matte black the car plasti dip would be my solution?

Anyone matte there car out?

Shoot cant sleep at night recently due to the car being so closeeeeee to purchaseeee

OMG MY MINDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD:ug h2:

What exactly are you asking? In the end its gonna come down to what you prefer and can afford. A lot of people are vinyl wrapping there cars to get the matte finish which is a cheaper solution than painting. Plasti Dip is a cool product, but I dont think I would Dip my whole car.

Amuse is sexy. there's a lot of white ones with it and they look great to me...but if you don't like how.it looks... You should get black!

Black only if you really like to detail a car. But if you have it done right it looks better than any color out there.

The only problem with black and I would assume matte black vinyl as well is that it shows dirt. you cannot hide it. even dust shows so easily on black where on other colors you do not see it as much even though it is there. Think of a black car as a mirror. it will show anything that gets on its serface and reflects that imperfection ten fold.

Disregarding the whole body kit thing, I'd rather go for the '12 with only 100 miles on it if it's the same price. Common sense says so. Why would an older model with more mileage be the same price as a newer model with less mileage?

None!
I personally don't like it and truly don't understand it. Why is it ok to put this kit on an import (Nissan) and not be called rice. But then again put a kit on a Honda, Toyota, Ford, etc and have it be rice.

It’s a rice move in my book.

It's the particular body kit that will make the car look "rice." There are some kit's for the Z that look pretty ricey....the Amuse isn't one of them. It looks like a sports car with a more aggressive body kit and the lines actually makes sense. The design looks like it could have come from the factory like that. A Civic or other utilitarian cars with a fugly kit on the other hand, will look like an econobox pretending to be a sports car. It's not true for all kits....just the really over the top ones we've all seen before.
kellyefields and axmea? like this.
