So the weather is still pretty ****ty here, hittin 50's now but eh still a little chilly. Was sittin here on my day off bored as hell, so i decided to drive around and snap some simple pics. This is by no means the good photo shoot i promised (its been too cold to do that). For that, im waiting for a little sunnier day and earlier in the morning. The amount of pearl in this car is just begging for more indirect light. Nothin special. I know i need jspecs...soon....

and these last 2 i washed out just for the hell of it lol looks kinda cool...

ill post up when i do a real photoshoot. Still scoutin for a good spot and waitin for a warmer/brighter day, today is overcast (which is good for darker cars, but not for really pearly colors) and kinda hazey, so not the best shooting conditions)

Still haven't decided if I like the black wheels, but it still looks sexy otherwise. That front bumper is the ONLY aftermarket bumper I would even consider putting on my Z.

Sound familiar, LOL.

well, its stock TT style, but that one is the KurumaZ zeta wing (fiberglass, as opposed to my old foam rubber POS that wouldnt even hold paint). you can get it from z1 or from kurumaZ directly. I got mine from kuruma.

actually it is CF. Its the VIS Techno-R hood. But on another note, all the people that say CF is just as heavy/heavier than stock are wrong. The VIS hood is ~10lbs lighter than the stock hood. Even noticable when you pop the VIS hood and pop the stock hood. I got it from an ebay vender (ends up bein about 150 less from the next cheapest dealer, and its the real deal VIS not some shady knock off)

Maybe your stock hood wasn't OEM or wasn't aluminum. I've had a VIS CF hood and a stock aluminum hood side by side and on a scale. The CF one isn't lighter.

Either way it's nice. I just have this thing against fully painting carbon fiber hoods.

trust me, my stock hood is an aluminum hood. What VIS hood did you have? I had them both on a scale and the VIS is 8 pounds lighter. I know 8 pounds might not seem like a lot, but when everyone is running around screaming that the CF hood is heavier...

thanks for the props everyone, the rims are ADR Msport 18x8.5/18x9.5 painted black.
