Zilverbullet's 2013 370z Journal
Purchased my first Z in March of 2013 after owning a 2002 vw jetta 1.8t. I've learned a LOT about this vehicle and modding in general and it sucks that I found the370z.com AFTER purchasing my z from the dealership (impulse purchase, did not get sports package). Regardless, I love my car and have gotten over the fact that I don't have shiny calipers or srm by distracting myself with mods
How my Z looked by the end of 2013 Engine and Drivetrain Modifications -Fast Intentions Non-Resonated CF CBE -Motordyne Art Pipe v3 -NST Pulley Kit -Z1 Post MAF Tubes w/ KN Drop-in Filters Wheels / Suspension -Forgestar F14 Burst Bronze 19x9.5 + 20 Semi Deep Concave 19x11 + 15 Super Deep Concave -Swift Springs -SPC Rear Camber arms -Kics r40 Neochrome Lugs Interior Designs -Kenwood DNX890HD -CarbonSignal CF Guage Top Hat -CarbonSignal CF driver/passenger covers -GT-R Push Button Start -Interior LEDs -Tommy Kaira 'Heavy Bebi' Shift Knob -Zoom Engineering Monaco Carbon Fiber Rearview Exterior Modifications -3m Clear bra -Varis v2 Partial CF front lip -Evo-R FRP Side skirts -AeroJacket CF Duckbill Spoiler -ZCFcovers Carbon Fiber B Pillar Covers -JDM Reverse Fog Light 2015 Wishlist -Varis rear diffuser -Varis side skirts -Volks te37-sl -Z1 Akebono sport package brakes -JDM Taillights -painted headlights I will have some better photos up in the next couple weeks. Just dropped off my lip to get paint matched and waiting for wheels to arrive as well. Thanks for viewing, more to come

It will look good! I plastidipped mine anthracite grey but will probably get it profesionally painted (or even look into shaving the handles completely >:])
I think I paid around 300ish for the front clear bra.

Just picked up this beautiful piece from being painted. Can't wait to wash the car and get it mounted!

Mounted the Varis lip and f14s this weekend!
Also had my duckbill spoiler installed by the same shop that painted the lip a couple weeks ago for $75. If anyone in san jose,ca is looking for a great paint/autobody shop PM me!

Shout out to christian370z for hooking me up. Side skirt install. Thank you RICAN for the great deal. Testing out a gold scheme A$$
