New Top Secret lip installed, side skirt question
 

Got a screaming deal on a lightly damaged cf Top Secret lip. Had it installed today. It looks great, but now I need to address the sides. I'm not a huge fan of the Top Secret sides. What others would work? I'm kinda torn between the Ings and the Seibon S-tune replica. If I went with the Seibon, I'd paint the vertical surfaces to match the body and leave the horizontal parts cf. Any other ideas?

Or should I just take the easy way out and buy a set of prepainted s tune sides from Z1 and call it a day?

Evo-r blades.

I would also suggest some Evo-R blades

I hope aftermarket wheels are in your future too..

Wheels may happen sometime later. At least 10k miles left on the tires, so no time soon. Side blades may work. How far under the car do they go? Do they interfere with the jack points?

IMO it looks weird to have a modded exterior and stock wheels, the car will always look unfinished

Here are pics of someone's side blades you can browse:

Top Secret CF lip compliments the 370Z perfectly. I love the OE sideskirts. However, the Evo Blades are nice because, they don't ruin the basic balance of the car.

I would have to disagree with a previous post here. I think the stock wheels look just fine, especially if you want to avoid too much of the ricer look, like vented front fenders and red lug nuts. With that said, I like the Ings+1 side blades because they give you a little front mud flap and have a clean professional look. I ordered those and their front lip for my car after my Stillen one broke. I ordered all those a couple months ago and should be here in the next 2 weeks. I'm excited to get them installed!
I really like that Top Secret lip you picked up. It looks good and I can't tell where there is any damage from the pictures.

How well would the carbon fiber match if you went with top secret front and evo-r sides?

I mean you wouldn't really see them side by side when on the car, but if the weaves/finish are noticeably different, it would drive me crazy.

I have my evo-r sides on the way and I'm trying to figure out what to do up front. Leaning evo-r single piece right now, but I like the looks of the Ings and Top Secret front better.

This concerns me as well for both the Evo R and the Ings side skirts. I'm still completely undecided. With the Ings and Evo R, I've got to have a body shop spray some more clear on them before they go on. S Tune skirts are ready to go out of the box, but I'm not sure how well they go with the OEM rear. I'm not looking to do anything to the rear of the car anytime soon. I figure I'll just go with it as it sits for a while until I figure it out.

I haven't seen close ups of the Ings, but have you seen the close up of the Evo-R? They have a pretty heavy coat of clear on them.

I always plan on having to re clear any cf parts. It's not too expensive, and I really don't want to have them turn yellow on me. My Evo R door handles have turned a little since I didn't have more clear put on. It's not bad, but I can definitely tell.
