Some awesomely dished wheels and Tein suspension would have been first on my list. A little bit of panty moistener with alot of control is key. IMHO, the stock lines are all the 350 Z ever needs. The lines of the stocker are so slick that anything else that is added on look like just that: added on.

But to each their own. If it makes you happy, do it. But if you post it in some internet forum, expect to be shredded. That is just how it goes. Most of us here would rather have a stock appearing 74 Nova with nice wheels that not only corners but runs 10's over a pimp looking ___________ with 20's, a full bodykit, 10k in ICE and a FnF carbon fiber spoiler. The seond I preach form over function is the seoond I have the cash to replace my flat black paintjob.

Rice.

I think the car looks nice, kit looks weird for the back and the front looks, different. Personally a lip kit might've been better, I saw one on another website on a blue 350Z and it looked so bad ass.

RIMS ARE WHAT YOU NEED!

Ok, if you can't swing new rims - then buy some spacers to push those rims out a little...

Hey - I'm not trying to be a dick - but I know how much you pay for that sort of stuff - and I know I would not be happy with it not aligning/etc. Just some observations- which you are totally opening yourself up to with a post like this...

well i only paid 350 for the kit that my g/f got me...
and paid 750 for the molding, painting, install!

ohh, and by the way my insurance co paid for all this because of a lil scratch that one of the hurricanes did to the car..
and the gap on the side skirt has been fixed, and i think a custom hood will fill the gap... i dont know which hood i want though... and the reason why i didnt get a supercharger first is because the insurence co did give me enough money, so i decided to make the out-side sick...
