Bay Speed Corp. CF Kit
This past Saturday I had a chance to meet with Darren at Bay Speed in Brooklyn. He's really eager and excited to get started on a full carbon fiber kit for the 370z. I know nizz23sd has already sent his out to seibon and I'll be doing the same thing with Bay Speed. If you guys have any ideas I'm taking her in Wed and meeting with Darren again to go over details and parts list. We're looking to do everything, and strip it down similar to nizz23sd. Can't deny I'm a tad bit nervous but I know in the end after a few long weeks it'll be worth it. Please post pictures and ideas about what you guys might be interested and I'll be sure to talk to him about it.

This is complete replacement dry-carbon parts to drop weight? Sounds pricey, but if you can afford it go for it man I'd love to see someone replace the entire outer paneling of the car and see how much weight that drops.

Actually, they needed a volunteer to help them out with the 370z, in return for free parts, they posted on here.

I offered them some idea's but what I think you should do is take the weight of the car at a weigh station w/ a full tank and do a before and after comparison!

Maybe some air filter ports or something in the front facia? Or a front lower lip spoiler that's not too profound? Something like the Mine's Z but a little less fancy. Just my .02...
