Like the Hood!

lookin good!

Looks great! Especially the wheels with that custom powdercoating! ;)

Wheels look great. Can't wait to see it lowered.

Sweet ride & nice pics. Love the CF hood....

Does these hood have vents that lead water out? I really want one but afraid water will get in the intakes ...

I'll say that the way it is designed prevents any water from getting near the intakes. I have the R2Cs and not a drop gets on them.

Love the wheels, nicely done.

Not sure how I feel about the hood.

looks good!

Did you used to be over on Club3g.com? I recognized the username. I used to drive an Eclipse also haha.

:icon18:

That's great. I was on Club3g for a long time. I still frequent it for the lols.

Haha yeah I go back occasionally but it's changed so much that it's painful sometimes. I hope you're as happy as me to be out of the 3G and into something nice. Loving the wheels!

:iagree: :iagree: :iagree: :iagree: :iagree:

I knew they were going to come out sick but omg :eek2: I never thought that sick! :tup: Congrats br0!


2 thoughts: Are you looking at possibly getting a CF Fang cover? And a CF Vinyl wrap for the roof? I think those would help tie the hood into the rest of the car and give you a nice clean CF center stripe.

Looks GREAT bud! :tup: :bowdown:

Might as well get CF trunk ^_^

Well, currently I really want to get the hood color matched and collect the rest of the Evo-R products, but most likely in flat black. I have though about collecting it all in CF and doing the roof in cf vinyl + hatch.

Not too sure about the hatch with it not being a complete seam to the rear bumper. And the CF Plate surround I'm not sold on. :icon08: So your 'CF center stripe' would be broken. And that would annoy me. Not saying you can't do it, just offering my :twocents:


She's coming together great though. :tup:

Little update:

Tein S-tech Springs
EVO-R Front Lip
Aerojacket Wing and hood painted

Not the best photos from my iphone, but you get the idea.

How hard was it to match the pearl white? Any good body shops in florida you can recommend?

Well the photos are misleading the body shop has to respray it. They did a bad job matching it. Came out slightly pink. Taking it back soon. So right now no recommendations lol

Yea the pearl white is hard to match thats why I asked. I had fenders in my garage waiting to be installed for the longet time because I couldnt find a good body shop in jacksonville so I ended up selling them. How was the fitment on the vis hood?

Figment is great no complaints. I had a good body shop but he closed down.

Man those wheels are sick. :tup:


So mad at myself for letting them go :shakes head: :icon17:

DANG them wheels look good

Got an update to finally add, but I do need some better lighting. Big thanks to Kevin and Thomas for helping on the install, ran into a big head ache on these.

Glad to finally have the Akebonos on the car and to finally do another update. More to come, and some better photos to follow soon.

Awesome work man! :tup:

Wow! super long time no update!! That's a very interesting look. I have never seen anything like that or resemble that look on a Z.. Humm... interesting indeed.. Humm...

YzGyz

Told you we would get it done :driving: My hands are still dirty!
Thomas the Gainesville Z mechanic to the rescue :icon17:

I’ve got some fairly big updates, and I definitely need to take some great photos, but I’ve added fly1 Motorsports rear carbon fiber diffuser, and carbon fiber roof cap, along with the 2015 Nismo front, evo-r DRLs, and recently powder coated my GTS bronze chrome and glossy black.
