I don't believe Nissan chose any color that does not look great on the 370Z.

RCZ 03-03-2009 09:59 PM

Very nice, I love soft light pictures of that white.

inTgr8r 03-03-2009 10:06 PM

ctzn - sweet lookin ride.
Dang, I thought I was settled on MB. ....but now IDK

cheeseWhizz 03-08-2009 04:56 AM

nice car... pearl white is a very very close second to monterey blue for me. Congrats

ctzn 03-08-2009 02:33 PM

Thanks guys, just updated the OP...

LenZToy 03-08-2009 02:37 PM

The white is beautiful...I agree with SOCAL, haven't seen a color that doesn't look great on this car.

White looks pretty awesome!! Just when I have my mind set on PG, I see PW. Great lines in both colors, I am officially torn.

Very nice shots, love the modified first pic!

I love the Black lower bumper on the first pic, is this something you were considering doing?

Looks GT-R like, or should I just say very 'new Nissan' like as otherwise it sounds like imitation rather than general originality.

Hey yeah this is a concept I have been thinking of for a while now and I do plan on doing something similar. I am going to put vynal over it to see what it looks like and if I like it I will go ahead and get it painted.

I guess my only hesitation is wanting to wait for a nice subtle lip to come out that I can go with in conjunction to the blacked out center.

Intreiged 03-23-2009 05:13 PM

To be honest the vinyl would work really well as a long term option IMHO, there are examples of complete cars with this done, I remember seeing a blue e46 M3 changed to white (a bit silly for a whole car I must admit).
You could also take it off and re-do it after it pics up some stone chips or if the lip comes out, maybe a cheaper option too.

Stunning car btw!

Interesting thought, I will have to look deeper into the option and what type of materials would work the best.

And thanks much :tup:

ctzn 04-11-2009 05:46 PM

added a few new pics from the event in Alameda today, pretty good turn out. The pic of the GT3 has my car in the background so I figured it qualified :D

NA&CH 04-12-2009 12:56 PM

I love the last thumbnails Very classy :D

B_K 04-30-2009 02:56 PM

Didn't know how much I liked it white until I sat in one the other night. It was touring/sport/6MT. Very nice!

GT Motoring 05-01-2009 11:16 AM

Love white!

KiRiMa 05-06-2009 02:02 PM

:drool::drool:I was considering the Pearl White.After seeing the first pic I am thoroughly convinced PW is the one for me..

KyleBucket 05-09-2009 01:52 PM

Beautiful Z

BerkTech 05-19-2009 02:47 PM

Best color and sport package :tup:

Unicorn_blood 05-25-2009 03:09 PM

So many choices: white or platinum graphite... tourning or base... sports package is a given!!!

k20z3 05-25-2009 03:54 PM

first picture is my background on my phone, pure S3X

GreenJalapeno 05-25-2009 05:46 PM

is the black center piece on the first one custom work?

ctzn 01-11-2010 09:58 PM

Thought I would update with a few quick pics after getting my car back this evening, it is going in again tomorrow to get the Stillen sways and H&R Spacers put on. I'll have time for some real pics this weekend but until then, here is a preview...

http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/e...610/wheel1.jpg

I'm realizing they look to have a very subtle blue tint to them in ^^ that pic, hmm, will have to get a better look in the sunlight tomorrow. They are a touch darker than I was hoping for but overall I am pleased with the look. Now I just need to do something about the centercaps and lugs, never realized how much they would stick out...

tranceformer 01-12-2010 07:51 AM

What exactly did you do? Powdercoat?

ctzn 01-12-2010 09:24 AM

Yep just a powder coat

ctzn 01-16-2010 02:00 AM

Here are a couple quick picks after putting the spacers on...

http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/e...u610/Zed_1.jpg

http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/e...u610/Zed_2.jpg

Also had Stillen sway bars put on front and rear (many thanks Josh!) and the car is on rails paired with the Eibach springs. I will get some more seat time this weekend and some better pics of course :D

Oh and before you comment on the parking job, like RCZ, both spots are mine :tup:

rico magic 01-16-2010 09:36 AM

Awesome! Love the white and the dark wheel combo!

ctzn 01-17-2010 05:30 PM

Alright finally got a chance to get some slightly higher quality shots with a tripod...

fairladyZ34 01-22-2010 09:09 PM

i like the center cap and lug being a different color. at least in these pics anyway it may look different in person. it gives it a nice contrast because the wheels arent black, so the silver doesnt look so out of place

Nice looking car, what size spacers did you use? :tup:

ctzn 01-27-2010 12:33 AM

Thanks toon!

The spacers are 15mm front and 20mm rear :tup:

purecustom370 01-29-2010 01:03 PM

should I get white on black with white trim on the rims or black on black? maybe post some pics if you have some

RCZ 01-29-2010 03:13 PM

CTZN, that looks PERFECT. I love the color you got for the wheels. In fact, I'm going to have to ask you what color those are because I may have to do it as well. I think those would look great on PG.

lol @ the parking spot comment too.

ctzn 01-30-2010 02:25 AM

Many thanks RCZ! I will get the exact color code for you and PM it your way; I think it would look great on your car especially with the perfect stance you have right now.

ctzn 01-30-2010 11:02 PM

A few pics of my little project today of following Simota's DIY to black out the fangs. Not perfect, but will suffice for the moment I suppose.

purecustom370 02-01-2010 01:04 PM

ctzn are those the stock rims that come with the 370z?

They are not the stock rims, they have been powdercoated a gunmetal.
