Sounds like you were not his first priority and he was fitting people in before you. I would not go back to that shop.

Agree I would've checked the mileage and have them write it on the receipt before dropping it at the body shop and after picking it up.

Driver: "Nope, still not planted enough. More downforce please."
Team: "Where at? Front? Rear?"
Driver: "Uhh... all over please. Front, sides, bottom, top, rear, and may I get an extra two feet on each side of the wing? Thanks."
Driver: "And a few more hundred of those red things. They seem to be adding HP."

Theres a picture of the Rear Body Scoop with the vent but no specifications i can't get a picture from underneath. I did more examination on it and its a small passageway that goes through a small area to the underneath of the car. I think it's the brakes, not sure. My body guy told me that it cools the breaks so i'm going to take his word for it. There's also the side shot of the rear and close up on the wheels.
It actually looks pretty dope. Finish off the look by adding a rear add-on, rear diffuser, side blades, a drop and blacked out door handles and wheels. I'd powder coat your calipers in red.

WTF.

Do not encourage this craziness. My god... what has been seen cannot be UN-seen.

I love the 370z... but it's getting to a point where a used one is just at the right price point to fall into the wrong hands... and this is the result.

I think I could accept all the scoops etc. But the red paint on the wheels is too much.
