The Z1 Carbon FIber Radiator Air Guide ?

BORNGEARHEAD · 10-07-2023, 09:32 PM

I'm interested in the Z1 Radiator guide. Two questions I have is:
1. Are you glad you bought it, would you buy it again?

2. Does anyone have the new red carbon fiber one and have pictures of it on their car? Reason I ask is I have a 2020 Z in Passion Red tricoat and Im curious to see if going with the red carbon fiber will be a good choice and if it might match close enough to look good with my exterior color.

I bought one and the next month red came out. Ugh. I love mine. Really adds to the appearance of the engine bay! The new one has less air holes. I didn't think the red would match my carbon fiber steering wheel...so no biggie.

Thanks for replying. Im nervous the red won't match the rest of my car, either. I can play it safe with the same color as yours but, man, the engine bay could really pop with the red. I wish I could find some better pictures of the red carbon fiber. Besides, there is a $50 markup for the red. I'm also running the same silicone intake tubes as you.

I think it would be hard to match passion red with anything, as it is an unusual colour.

I imagine the silicone intake tubes do not match the passion red either.

From what I've seen, it will look like a dark red because it's so closely woven and next to black weave.

Wait till their black friday sale, it will be on sale for the lowest price they'll offer. That's my plan.
