Was going for the 2-tone white and black paint job, but now....

BUT now I'm thinking Katskin leather seats and suede door inserts (autumn color), powder coated satin black wheels, custom painted headlights/taillights, matched black door handles and INGS N Spec front

BUT now I'm thinking Katskin leather seats and suede door inserts (autumn color), powder coated satin black wheels, custom painted headlights/taillights, matched black door handles and INGS N Spec front air dam. Placing order tomorrow for the Fast Intentions Exhaust and HFC's. I think interior and exterior will look so much better. I was really set on the paint job but many people have talked me out of it. What do you guys think?!! I'm going for the "murdered out" look.

I was thinking of doing the black on white theme, but now I want to focus on more power! Might have to bite the bullet, sell some parts, and go for the UpRev Osiris standard kit. Sigh....

If you get the seats all leather then they will probably wrinkle and stretch and look saggy. I would do leather and suade for the seats a suade for the panels.

Yea..I was really set on the paint job for months..waiting for March to come. Now that it's here I'm just like "well..I could apply all that money elsewhere" Plus I've heard it's a hassle to change the color of your car as far as the DMV goes. I'd rather add sound...HP...and of course "Sophia-ness" LOL I love the blacked out look! Drives me crazy! Now I can be fully crazy and so can my car

Yeah..I've heard about that. I still didn't check out all of Katskins options.... I'm working on it. I plan to have the car fully done by mid April I'm not going too crazy with the Z tho...trying to keep it somewhat clean. I see my new radio and speakers done by May (costs $2600 so I'm not rushing. The hubby's gonna buy them for me)
