I guess when the budget allows I'd get bigger brakes for sure, will improve the look not to mention performance!

Anyways nice work so far

Thanks GreatOne. After the front lip I was totally convinced to buy everything else in CF.

I already told a few people and I will say it here. I will do the minimal finishing touches for now to finish off the exterior look (most importantly rear spats) and then I am going to take a break from the modding. I took plenty of time to decide upon what I wanted to get and now it's all there. Need some time to plan the next big steps (exhaust, wheels, performance type stuff, etc.) for the future so that I will be 100% satistied like I am now. Who knows if my word will stay... once mod bugged, always mod bugged ;)

Yeah....

I made a list when I bought my car intending on getting there in a few years. Well.....a few months later I've ticked off just about everything on that list but wheels and coil overs! The bites....it bites HARD!!! g-luck keeping control. Wait.....on second thought JUST DO IT! :tiphat::stirthepot:

So I have been looking through sets of wheels I want to throw onto my Z, it could really use them. In march Lenso is releasing these EX20's and I might jump on them. They come in 20's but offset isn't determined yet.

What do you fellas think of these?

I like anything with a nice big concave :) Those look like royalty..

JWillis72 01-17-2014 06:16 PM

I think they would look great on the car.

Meulen 01-17-2014 06:23 PM

My spray can from automotive touch-up came in the mail yesterday. Since I had some time, I went right ahead into taking my bumper off and pulling apart the headlights. It got a lot easier to pull apart these 370z headlights for me. Also texted a friend of mine right away cause his lights needed a blackout. Anyways, here are some progress pics and results.

Thanks Huck I saw that thread but after totalling my 350z, my back wouldnt be able to handle a set of coils like that. From what I hear, swifts are a nice drop as well as comfortable so that my back wouldnt hurt on a long day. Here, this pic will explain it all.. :(

I wasn't happy with the swift drop. The ride was superb, but i notice little difference now with my BC coils. Just soften the dampening. I have them set at 15 clicks, so right in the middle.
