Finally bought all the stuff I'm going to need to go ahead with the respray...

- Chargespeed rear bumper with carbon diffuser.
- Nismo V3 spoiler with brake light.
- Amuse Powerhouse side skirts.
- 370z side repeaters.

I wanted more moden, cleaner lines to the car... Something similar to the Nismo 370z. I think the styling bits I've chosen should give me something like the 350z version of the Nismo 370z.






The Parts clogging my living room - nice carpet eh?






Some Photoshops of what I expect it to look like...







Now I just have to choose a colour!

Ready to paint bump, so people know what I'm on about!

Cheers mate, azure is a nice colour! Let me know how you get on, or if you need any pointers on what to look out for when buying

[tman]

Thanks mate, read a couple of the buying guides on the forums so think I have a pretty good idea what to look for. Going up to tradelink at the weekend to see what they have.

Will prob be asking your advice on mods etc in the near future!

Just bought these crystal rear back up lights to replace the awful looking standard ones... Plan on tinting them slightly like the last picture.



Dated looking standard ones;



New ones;





Tint them maybe even less than this;

Recently got my Z

Where did you get the clear rear lights from? Looking good

Cheers for the link.

No point starting a thread as I don't plan on doing too much

Want to keep it pretty standard as it's a GT4.... And it's a bit yellow:



Bet the wait is killing you!

Got the crystal indicator lenses fitted, I had them tinted to 35%... Really happy with them, the standard ones look very dated.








And sold my Nismo V2 spoiler... I'll have a bare bum till the respray in January when the Nismo V3 gets fitted. Looks odd

[tman]

The rear lights look good, did the same on mine last weekend. They make a big difference. How did you tint them, spray or film?
The tint works well with the white car.

I bet it's odd looking through the rear window and not having a big spoiler there anymore!

Blimey just had a look at this and it must be one of the longest ongoing projects I've seen! You must have had this car for what 4 or 5 years now?

I got a tint place to do them for me 35% light through, really pleased with them. The OEM ones look terrible next to the facelift LED brake lights... Yeah, it's weird. I was always half tempted to go for no spoiler/smooth lid. Now I have it in the metal, I can't wait to get a wing back on there! Just doesn't look right, 350's need a wing imo.

Will take a look at your thread now

Ha! A load of time and not much progress lol...

After the respray/new kit fitted, it'll be the 3rd different look I've gone for since I've had it...

[tman]

They do look good tinted and 100% agree the OEM's are terrible. I have the facelift brake lights too and the OEM indicators looked really out of place.

Not a lot to look through on my thread at the moment haha
