I say the rear would be amazing.....rare...very rare....that's what your cars is. Amazing build that seems to just get better and better...don't stop now my friend as you already are invested in her deep....

I think you can pull it off if you black out the rear diffuser part and the vent accent part. That will break up all the busy-ness as it were.

gonna be honest the only thing slightly intriguing on that red Z is the hood... id be interested in info on that.

i really appreciate it man... i do realize the rear is really really aggressive and has big *** holes in 80 percent of the bumper

i guess thats why most people dont like it... the honest truth why i was considering it was it actually grew on me... after looking at 2theextremes bumper... i really really fell in love with it.. but after seeing it in red....

i am unsure now lol.... another main reason i wanted to do abflug was have you guys ever heard of a abflug rep?

i think its so rare that they will never come out with a replica.... which is what im shooting for.... same goes with the top secret sides... they are rare and have no replicas out and i am hoping that they dont ever come out with TS side skirt replicas... that would make me mad lol and i am unsure if the TS sides are discontinued as much of there parts are already discontinued...

that was actually the "paint scheme" i was planning

but i am still unsure my z can pull it off...

i also realize the mines wing would look absolutely puny with that rear.. thats why i was going to get the ing's gt wing at the same time.... however....i got the word out that my mines was for sale locally.... 700 comes with sport wing we swap hatches

cheap right? but no dice not a single interested prospector.... i think the biggest problem is that most people here arent as hard core with jdm... and would rather get reps... which is fine with me... but gets frustrating because when i sell things no matter how badass of a deal they are getting... they act like they are getting ripped off

my second option for a wing was the varis gt wing.... its definitely different because it looks like a varis wing with another wing stacked on top of it.. but i think its one of those things you gotta see in person to appreciate... truthfully when i first ordered my varis hood i wasnt happy because i really wanted the top secret hood to complete my top secret theme..... however i got qouted 4.5k (shipped) with a wonderful 60-90day wait on the hood... this was a little steep for me... so i opted for varis since it was a little bit cheaper and had the rain gutters.... when it arrived i absolutely freaking loved it... how it looks in person is definitely different from the pics....

so i think i would have been the same for the rear gt wing

indeed my man... the underside is as gorgeous as the varis.... i got qouted like 3 grand for it with a 60-90 day wait and almost 1.5k to ship to guam.... thats when i knew i couldnt do that LOL... exactly just like the top secret titan exhaust.... they qouted me like 10k for the exhuast with the y pipe.. this type of TS exhaust had the electronic valve so you could adjust the sound of it.. which is awesome but its to much... as much as i support JDM... thats to much for my pockets....

DatsunFTW · 10-03-2013, 04:02 PM

I know I'll be flamed for this but I love the abflug rear bumper. When I saw 2theextreme's it really stood out to me and has something about it that makes it look so awesome. It looks really JDM. Sim I think the red actually looks good and slight black accenting would look good as well. Go with what you think looks best, cause in the end, it's your car

Mr&Mrs · 10-03-2013, 05:27 PM

Someone needs to photo shop the areas black as mentioned. I agree the rear is out there, but for some reason I like it. Loved it on Tonys car got kind of excited when you said you were going for it. Another one of my favorites is the Central 20 kit, which is my back up if a lot of Zele reps start popping up.

Amuse370z · 10-03-2013, 07:05 PM

Honestly, imo, you get what YOU like the most and don't let people with replicas affect your decision. If deep down you like the Amuse kit more than anything else out there, stick with it. Don't buy a rare kit just because it is rare. Maybe just buy the Amuse wing to get a different rear look.

For example, I saw an ad for the Amuse 370z and fell in love back in 2010, I just took delivery of the car in July. By now theres plenty of Amuse kits around but I'm not letting it stop me.

honestly i love the amuse... and i know this will sound stupid but whats bugging me is that its a replica .... if it were a real powerhouse amuse i wouldnt even be looking for another body kit

id call it a day already lol.... but i would feel really really stupid for getting the same body kit just because its authentic... thats why i was opting for a different body kit... thats all...

i like being different... but at the same time of course im putting this together carefully so i dont change my mind again because i was unhappy with my decisions...

i would greatly appreciate it if someone photoshopped it...

speaking of the central 20 rear.. i think that rear bumper is pretty kool it reminds me of scorpion from mortal kombat....

the only thing about it is its a round butt... which is sexy but i love it when it sticks outward... like the amuse and abflug rears... they protrude outwards....

simota1 · 10-04-2013, 06:37 AM

in other news... my GANADOR mirrors came in together with my top secret rear fog... but i missed the mail man...

ill pick them up tomorrow on my lunch break... imma do a review on them since no one has really given the ganadors much love... i opted for the non turn signal light one.... my contact was unsure what was the flashing timing of the turn signal on the model which had one... so he said just get the one with out it for a more cleaner look...i told him i was ok with the one with out the turn signal anyways cuz i dont want to many turn signals flashing LOL... after all the fender signal is already good enough for me... i dont need another one on the side mirror... best part of the mirrors plug and play baby!!!! no adjusting manually and they are convex mirrors also

Huck · 10-04-2013, 08:07 AM

What about the central 20 rear bumper? I've always kinda liked that one. The Tamon design one is crazy beautiful, but at like $8k or whatever it is, that's probably not an option. I know the whole wide body kit is like $27k shipped.

I survived Zdayz 2013... (barely)
