these are a little better pictures. same shitty camera but alot more light. you can actually make out the car a little bit. lol. sorry about the black wheels, me and my buddy decided to paint them one day thinking i would never have to use them. but hey they dont look that bad. i like it better this way.

Not a bad looking ride, and I like the black wheels.

I like the black wheels too. So how much did all that run you, parts and paint, and labor.

[k3smostwanted]

um...i didnt cost ME but $450 but i think between the 2 insurance companies the total come to some $6,000.

new hood
new front bumper
new fenders (both sides)
spoiler
plus paint on all the above items and labor
plus blending to the doors and rear bumper
plus rust removal on the little piece above the windshield.
plus paint on center panel.
plus repaint on the hatch.

i think that was it. oh well, i got a good deal i think, except my insurance company is thinking about dropping me but my lawyer wants to take them to court for some of the things they said in a letter and get a me a full refund on the past 2 and a half years i have paid insurance. that would be a nice $7,500 in my pocket.

good looking ride. i like the black rims it gives it a more agressive racing style

i think the 90-93 turbo spoiler is my favorite. it just flows with the lines of the z so well. very nice.

You stole my signature

On all of my Zeds, I've always had black powder coated stock Zed alloys... It just makes the car look so damn sweet.

Nice looking car dude... Makes me miss my Zeds

sorry wes, i didnt steal it persay...didnt really know that was your signature move. just had an image i had to fill.

[freakonaleash1187]

my friend's are wanting me to powder coat my wheels black. but i am not going to because i don't think it would look that good on my car.

[k3smostwanted]

yeah...i agree with you freak. maybe if you powder coated them gun-metal or a darker silver but i wouldnt do black. i think black would look kinda wierd with your paint but you never know. if it were a darker green then it would look better.

Nah I was kidding K3, its been done thousands of times over... It was just my personal signature type deal.

Do this guys:

-Buy a set off Ebay... Ok conditition is fine I suppose. I bought my pair off Ebay for $75, no tires.

-Take them to any shop (I was a student in one at the time) and ask them to use their bead blaster, they may be cool, they may not be... But if it comes down to it, you may have to pay to have it done.

-Now, the beadblasting should take about 15-20minutes per wheel... Teedious yes, but its neccesary.

-Now go over the rough spots with a grinder, and then bondo the spots, to make it all completely smooth.

-Find a paint shop, most of these shops can do small scale powder coating. And they should charge around $25-$35 a wheel.

-After I was done, the wheels looked sweet. You could get creative with it too I suppose... Black main peice, polished lip... Red outline... Etc. Make something cool.

Its not that difficult, and it has really great results.
