Talking Body Mods?

Hi Igor!...as you can tell, im very interested in this project, and i was wondering if it was going to be a sleeper or some show/LOTTA go! or what..because if you are going to do some body kits i think this one suits the 350 very well : The Nissan Z33 350Z Version-1 kit by veilside...its very subtle but very stylish!

Re: Body Mods?

if it gets a body kit I think you should use something that is not widely used so that it is more original and isn't just the same old same old. I hate seeing the same cars with the same old body kits, gets boring... anyways just my thoughts

Re: Body Mods?

Very little body work if any is planned for the time being. I see a possibility of adding a wing to increase downforce for better handling on the track, but a bodykit is unlikely.

I'd go for a more subtle look.

Maybe just some CF lips and canards that fit to the OEM body.

Re: Body Mods?

No color changes are planned. However, let's try to use correct spelling and punctuation for words - easier to read.

Re: Body Mods?

the wheels on that picture would be awesome to put on the car, skip all the expensive body parts though. but every performance car needs cool light weight wheels right?

EDIT: nice 17" 5 spokes would show off that pretty big brake kit nicely as well

Re: Re: Body Mods?

thats an awsome drawing

if your going to do any body mods I'd suggest showing a pic of the car to the graphic manipulation guys and have em do something up for you

and i love the colour but maybe some custom decals would be cool.. I'd do subtle decals only slightly darker then the paint color so that they arent seen untill looked at closely

Re: Body Mods?

if this is going to be a performance daily driver i'd stay away from major body mods, except maybe a mild lip and spoiler. the z looks great stock so i wouldn't change too much about it.

i totally agree, a stock 350 Z is a beautiful car, if it has to getta wing, go fiberglass cuz itll look way better and it will go with the car while it does the job of providing adequate downforce

yea having a sleeper is cool but.....so is having a veilside ver.3 .....i think that this is the coolest thing ever. I would bet that there is not another car forum like this any where. that would be cool if you guys could get some sponsors (maybe as big as veil side!) to help out. whooop whoo
