I gotta say I like it, aside from the painted hood. And I think the vent is the rear QP looks a little outta place. Not sure if its the 2+2's profile or the location you choose for the vents/scoops...

BTW, that last pic rocks!!!

That is really nice, is the hood carbon fiber? If it isn't then the paint is a strange. The vents on the quarter panels are a little akward looking as well. Those rims are sweet, what are they and what size???

All in all a very nice car.

Besides the vents and the hood, I think it looks really nice. I am not completely sure, but I do believe those are Kazera wheels, and I LOVE Kazera wheels.

I actually like the hood. the scoops are not my cup of tea but i think they look good on your car.

thanks guys, i appriciate the commentary! the scoops were to make it a unique Z you wont find another like it. as far as the hood, also a unique little visual the rims are sportmax 17" rims wrapped in toyo tires, they do look really good on the Z's gunmetal with a chrome lip. the color is actually very controversial, either you love it or you hate it... i love it! again thanks for the compliments guys!

I think that I love the color, but would like to see some photos in natural light... Too hard to get a good impression from your pictures.

The scoops do look "unique". I neither love nor hate them. I am less fond of the painted hood, but it's your canvas, so to speak, and you are doing a good job of making something your own.

Keep It Up, but don't let it (totally) interfere with skool. Ken

Were you at HIN in Chicago a few weeks back? There was a Z that exact color, but it had some rediculously ugly "Jaquemond" style tailllights on it..
