zupermans last post before car project completion

zuperman 370 · 04-18-2011, 10:07 AM

hey guys i know that i have started many threads regarding the work being done with my car, and that i should should of started a journal in the first place. i promise this will be the last thread with teaser pics of my car, as you can tell from the pictures that the car is nearing completion, its almost there just a few more touches here and there.

The theme that i wanted to go with this car was blue and black, as you would notice that from the pics, the cars still not 100% there yet, there are still little bits and peaces here and there, please enjoy the latest pics and comment, i would love to hear all of your feedback and opinions good or bad, i took a lot of risks with this project, so it would be nice to hear what the z community thinks of this

That's a lot of custom paintwork, but it looks really good together and I can't wait to see the finished pics

I like the nose vents flowing air out the hood vents, I'm sure thats helping out with engine temps. Then the canards and the front lip looks like you're going racing...but then the headlights scream "I'm a show car".

Cool project man, Its almost all done, congrats!

What wing are you going with?

tsolin01 · 04-18-2011, 10:51 AM

If you like it then great but the front is just way too overdone for my taste. It looks unique that's for sure.

I love the custom painted details and the carbon fiber peeking out of the hood and bumper, but I really think the canards take away from the front end appeal in my opinion. It would not look overdone if those were removed in my opinion, but I love how you left some carbon in the hood!

The side skirts look amazing.

bflosabre91 · 04-18-2011, 12:15 PM

love the hood and door handles. i could have done without the black vents on the front bumper but still looks pretty awesome.

zuperman 370 · 04-18-2011, 01:21 PM

thanks all for your feedback, the front does look over done right now, but if you see the car as a whole it all makes sense, all the peices i put together flow pretty good with eachother, i will defently post pics once the whole care is done.

car's nice, but I really don't like those nose vents. Looks very out of place. But have you ever thought of incorporating the nose vents into the hood vents? They seem pretty inline...that if you cut a few more custom vents in the hood to make it look like the vents go from the nose vents all the way to the windshield, might look very different.

docaam · 04-19-2011, 01:56 AM

I like the detailing, only thing are the vents in the bumper which I am not feeling, as you still haver to put up the front plate which might make it a bit crowded

Maybe might look better once everything is in place

, with amuse rear and spoiler

waiting for full car pics

that would look very different, but problem is that the vents are carbon fiber, so even if i do cut extra vents, i wouldnt be able to get the cf look, but thanx for your suggestion

I like what you're doing here.

Only thing I would do diff is instead of the mines air duct, i would of gone with varis. I think it just looks better than mines.
