-What is the purpose of the chrome tube-y things?

-What is SPORTZ? I googled sportz/florida/370z and didn't see anything. Is it a car club? A speed shop maybe?

-What is the purpose of the antenna behind the license plate?
The antenna gives his built in 1980's car phone reception

And the door protectors that don't stick out farther than the door handles

The sad part, the owner thinks it looks good. He walks out to it in the morning and thinks he nailed it.
LMAO!!! The V6 disturbs me because he took it off a Toyota, not even went and bought the letters from VatoZone

(PS I'm trying to be nice in case someone in here owns it)

I found it on reddit. I said I would reach out to the SE 370z community to see if anyone knew about the car - a long shot but I had to ask just...because.
Red things are door protectors as Chuck said

I have XM/Sirius. The antennas for those services sit on your dash. They're little magnetic block doodads that sit on your dash on a stick-on metal plate.

Where was this picture found? That might help point me in the right direction lol.

Also I don't think it's "sportz" as in a car club or something, I think it's "SPORT Z". I think he's just really happy that its the sport model lol. Either way, this is pretty crazy.

Zdayz 2014!!
