Put some louvers and 24" spinners and you're pretty much good to go...

I completly agree with the strong resemblance to the RS, but it's not like it doesn't have a connection with past Z's. I think it would look pretty cool if Porsche didn't already do the retro thing first. Personally wouldn't do it though.

Completely agree! I know older Z's had them but Porsche has been doing it for a while now and to the average person on the street they will automatically think "Porsche wannabe" not knowing the heritage of the Z car.

I personally think it looks good but I would not put it on my car just for the reason stated above.

Add some Angel Eyes too and your Z will be a further tool to call attention to yourself and say "look at me".

I like them. In fact, I am going to install something similar on my Z soon.

Do what makes you happy, and don't worry about what others may think. If you change your life to please strangers, what have you accomplished?

Personally, I like rocker stripes on some cars, including 370Z's (love the euro-only 370Z GT and its stripes!)

A Porsche does look good with them, but that doesn't mean that NO other car can rock them.

Cheers,
Kent

sorry man... no for me. Ruins and detracts from the sexy lines of our car.

Face it, I think you just like it because of the color and paying homage to the hawkeyes, eh, fellow Iowan?
