that's going to look so sick,nice offsets too!

You could have used VHT Night shade on the chrome emblems, it produces the same black chrome effect and you can adjust how dark you want it depending on the number of coats sprayed on. The Z will look amazing when done though, in for the afters!

Im not a fan of painting the eblems because of how it seems to fill the "Nissan" Id prefer the same depth as OEM... im sure someone with good painting skills could do it just right, but the 150 isnt going to kill me and I know I will be happy with how they look.

Ive seen them painted black by a shop and the way the paint filled the letters makes it look tacky... I dont know if I could do any better myself.

CarbonSignal · 01-21-2011, 06:12 AM

love it.. IMO, the best color for a Z34 is WHITE ... and nothing but WHITE

im89 · 01-21-2011, 07:04 AM

def want to see those headlight same route im going in just plain matt black housing i was gunna get the projector shroud painted that color as well. Do you just plan on painting the housing?

Your car is going to look great with the new mods! I can't wait to get my wheels put on either...they've been sitting in my garage for 2 months now.

The guy called me today to tell me they would be done on tuesday... He ordered me tires too as his price came in the best i saw...

I grabbed 255/40/19 and 305/30/19s in Hankook Ventus Evo's . I wanted a different tire but the front two I got from a buddy who ordered tires right before he got rid of his Z so he took them off and gave them to me... free is always good, I gave him my old stock front re50a front tires for them though, and this place got me the 305/30s for 226 each. So I saved a ton of money... when I replace them again I will go bigger in the front but I am happy regardless.. I cant wait to throw them on... The car will prob sit for a while but I will throw them on and take pics by next weekend.

My car was keyed towards the end of the summer in some random hate crime I presume.. as I came out to my car with flem wads and key marks on my passenger door, I am 27 have had the same girl for 6 fn years , dont f around and have no enemies.... that I know of.... So I am assuming it was just a hey this a#@hole is parked too far away from other cars for my liking lets key it and spit on it... gotta love people...

So next week its going into the bodyshop to get my door painted into my fender... so much fun to pay for other peoples destruction of my property... but while its in there I am going to do the front bumper like they guy did in the link I posted a few posts up... I am going to complete all that and than decide on the headlights...

Interested in seeing those emblems and wheels! In the picture the emblems look sorta gunmetal-ish. I was thinking of powdercoating my wheels gray/gunmetal too!

Kingbaby · 01-24-2011, 07:32 AM

if you got haters man...

your doing something right...

but have you considered a concealed weapon?

keep it up

definitionxmk · 01-24-2011, 08:22 AM

^I always keep a samurai sword and a Kit Kat Bar in my car... Just in case.

Red__Zed · 01-25-2011, 09:35 PM

car looks good, sucks about the haters though. f'in sucks.

chuckd05 · 01-28-2011, 02:57 AM

Wheels and Emblems will be in my possession tomorrow... that makes me happy

what doesn't is that I smacked up my winter beater (97 legacy gt) at 650 yesterday morning... hood is all kinked and its pissing fluid out of the radiator... I may be forced to drive my Z next week when this pos gets fixed... So the wheels may be on sooner than I expected. I have borrowed temporary wheels from my Z now from my brother but with a donut in the rear and the other tires so low on tread that they wouldn't make it to the end of the block before they popped I don't think i'll be using them... my bro def milked every last inch possible out of the tires.

So unless I rent a car tomorrow the wheels should be put on tomorrow.. Makes me cringe as there is snow on the ground right now but wtf else am I to do... Than when the suby gets out the Z will go to the shop. The body shop will know me well before long. But if I can get a rental for 100 for the week that will be my first option.

Ill post some pics of the finished product tomorrow. Pending any delays of coarse.

I have borrowed wheels from my brother on there now with a donut in the rear since one of his tires was flat. The tires on the others wouldn't get to the end of the block before they popped I don't think lol... my bro def milked every last inch possible out of the tires.
