Default How would this look? Opinions?

Hey guys.. I'm attaching a picture of my car to give you an idea of what I'm attempting..

I already installed EVO-R CF side blades and I'm looking into getting the INGS CF front lip (pictured below on a different car for reference)

My only issue is the rear.. At first I wanted to simply get the CF rear splash guards offered by theZstore.com but I think they won't do the job. In the end, rear would look "higher" off the ground than sides and front.

So I thought about the rear spats add-ons I've seen around and asked for a photoshop (thanks to forum member kuriz32) that is also below. Used a previous picture of docaam's car for the photoshop as well so indirect thanks to you too!

I'd buy CF rear spats and match-paint the top half to my car to leave the CF accent on the bottom.

I appreciate your comments!

This is my Z!



This is the INGS+1 CF Front Lip


This is how the rear spats would look like (sort of)

Thanks!

About the wheels, I'm waiting for a set of custom-painted TE37SL's in matte black.. They should get here around mid/end-October..

I think the rear of the z should be higher than the side. The front lip should be same height or lower than the sideskirt. Whatever you do don't mix 3 different bodykits. That's just my opinion. Keep it clean.

I think the front and side will flow well, not sure about the rear... good luck though, post pictures when you have it
