Yes it took almost two weeks. That can't be done for $60 per wheel. I wanted it done right the first time. Actually when you look at the labor hours..$1200 is cheap. Not very profitable for a shop IMO.

I think it looks great! Might be a hassle to keep the white clean though.

I've been thinking of doing about the same thing when I get my black Z.
I was originally going to go with red trim on the rims, but I like the Tron look more, so maybe a light neon blue or white trim on the rims. :)

Not my style personally, but props for doing something different and doing it professionally.

Hell yeah its a hassle. Washes twice per week at $30 each. Can't use normal washes anymore. I had a black on black Z and it was similar. Black is harder to keep nice. But my old wheels were not painted on the sides so I could atleast use a car wash. Even though its not really good for the car.

This is where I got the idea from. I actually was going to buy a Cayman but the techart kit was around 13k.

Also if you buy the S version with options the prices are outrageous. Not a good bargain at all. And I wanted new not used. So for my budget $40k the 370Z was the only real option.

Thank you sir. With the Amuse kit it will look ok. Not a 911 TT but close.

I am disappointed with the 5.1 (0-60). I think Nissan could have gotten us into the 4's. It looks like it will do 4 something though. So we don't have to tell those who don't know lol.

I think by the end of February I will order the amuse from Jamaica. And we will see how it can be. The reason I bought the 370Z is because of the Amuse kit. I wanted a daily driver exotic. I really don't see many 370's on the road. Many 350's but hardly any 370's. And when I went to buy mine last year I saw many new 2009 models still at the dealerships. They didn't sell for some reason.
