Thanks guys. Yeah I forgot all about the dealer stickers..lol.. What's the best way to remove?

Any advice for lowering the car?

Put on BC Coilovers with SPC rear camber arms

Lowest setting for the front on coilovers. Way to low to drive anywhere

Did you get low-ER profile tires on your car vs stock?

For the stickers, use a heat gun on low to loosen the adhesive. If no heat gun, use a hair dryer. If no hair dryer, spray with water, cover in plastic i.e. trash bag enough to cover the stickers and let it sit under the sun for about 10 minutes and you will be able to peel it off easy.

For lowering, use springs or coilovers. I have springs -- most guys have Swifts. I have H&R because I wanted it lower. Coilovers --- that's where I should have gone but it is expensive. Whether it is worth it or not is relative and purely depends on what you want to do. Since it is a vert, I would think you would not track it or try to do some crazy driving with it just stick with springs. I recommend H&R for that low aggressive look. Bet it would look great on a roadster. Good luck.

Very nice but you really need to paint those door handles the same color than the body color. It would make the car more elegant.

I had it done for $40 per handle by the dealership.

no problems with it, on the lowest setting it would rub a little, so i raised it back up a bit. but everything is good so far on bumps and turns no rubbing.

Installed coilovers, rear camber and toe arms. Pic after alignment done...better ones to follow.

I think it just makes the roadster look so much better & it stands out from all the ones without. I haven't seen another roadster with a spoiler, but I haven't seen too many other roadsters either.

I completely agree. I think the Roadster needs the spoiler. It takes away the bubble butt look.

I've seen one other Roadster on the road. I've only seen a few Coupes since '12 when I actually started looking for them. Ford sold more Mustangs in February than Nissan has sold 370Z Roadsters to date. Total 370Z sales are less than a year of Mustangs. These are rare cars and I'm ok with that. Nissan probably isn't as happy about it as I am.

I'm not sure how adding more bulk to the rear end improves the bubble butt look, but hey to each his own. I think the black vinyl wrap on the small section surrounding the tailpipes does more to reduce that, at least on colors other than black or black cherry. I've been contemplating that lately. Definitely agree it has a bit of Beyonce going on back there. :icon23:
