Hey guys,

I know not everyone will agree but, as much as I like the lines of the Z32, I also like the modern day conveniences that are currently available.
some people may say get a 350 or a 370 but personally the Z32 does it for me in exterior looks dept.

What items have you considered or plan to do to your car to modernize it to your likings if any? open to your feedback and comments, suggestions
I have not included any mechanical or engine related items, this is strictly appearance


cheers

I have installed
-Double DIN DVD stereo
-upgraded prioneer speakers
-corener light LEDS
- 350Z Rays staggered 18" 19" rears
- Meagan ground control
plans
- replace tweed lining and ugly visors with red cross stitched black leather
- custom carbon fibre console
- diamond checker plate floor mats and trunk mat
-upgrade steering wheel (momo)
- full LED conversion on rear light housings
- embed SMD LED bar in the bottom of the headlight housing
- JSpec bumper front
- Twinz rear bumper and side skirts
- carbon fibre wrap black t tops
- Wrap car in Red mirror Chrome

Look forward to all feedback.

Thanks,
TTZ N AZZ

So you aren't modernizing, you're just doing cosmetic things.

Not trying to be mean but diamond checker plate floor mats...DANGER TO MANIFOLD!!!

I find the Z32 holds its own compared to newer cars. Upgrades like the JSPEC front bumper and JSPEC rear tail lights are subtle ways to improve the appearance. Less is more.

I would focus on mechanical repairs first then esthetic upgrades. As for "modernizing", new audio / LED lights / new trim is what I would go for.

Apart from a different use of words. Your response brings no value

Appreciate your feedback. I agree. Less is more.
There is no checkerplate. Just the spec for the exterior to update it.
Thanks again
