I agree it is a little out of place looking, maybe do it in a two tone like 209z car. I will be doing that with my mirrors in my silver color.

Once the graphics get on, it will all be tied together. The rear spoiler was supposed to be orange on the bottom, but there was some miscommunication with the body shop. Since I was going to wrap the roof, they thought it was the top I wanted, and they are willing to strip and redo, but I kind of like the top done.

Kelly, I'm sorry. I was actually torn between lime green and orange, and I did a custom job for someone in harley orange powdercoat and noticed it matched my vinyl perfectly, so I figured I should go with it, and have the body shop match it in paint also, since I had two of the three matched.

The Z looks great Mike, it really pulls the GT3RS vibe off very well! I would have just painted the painted section of the side view mirrors as I feel it is a little too much but it really is awesome.

that is ok mike. I think the orange is a great choice cannot wait to see the final look. keep up the good work. I just like giving robert a hard time because he was able to do what I wanted to do first. That is ok the best things come to those who wait.
