Seibon Wide Body

I think there is definitely a market for a good wide body kit for the Z. But without pictures there is no way to really determine if the demand is

I think there is definitely a market for a good wide body kit for the Z. But without pictures there is no way to really determine if the demand is high enough. When is SEMA?

I bought Seibon doors and A pillars, sure they aren't cheap but they weren't msrp either. I could see how the front fender could easily be redone for a cf wide body but I'm not really a fan of a panel overlay to get the rears. You will have to cut the rear fenders and basically glue on a new panel on top of it to get that rear wide body effect and you'll need a new custom bumper. To date they haven't made any cf bumpers I only know of one manufacturer from which I got mine. However I can't deny I'm sure it'll look fabulous.

I think that the proportions of the Z are very wide and low slung as it is. Unless you are really looking for some extra space to fit huge wheels and tires, I think the Z is wide as is. It could be some decent eye candy though!

I believe the kit is mostly for looks. Our car is already wide as is. Its alot wider and curvier then the 350z imo.

In for pixxors.

Hopefully it doesn't have a GT-R front bumper. LOL

If it does have that GT-R styled front bumper...

I'm definitely not interested in purchasing one, but I'd be interested in seeing some pictures. The stock front is wide enough to fit a 275/285 tire, so I'm good to go as far as my plans go.
