lol You really do like that part blacked out on cars dont you? I remember your comments about the new SL63 AMG (which I agree on

)

With the revealing of the initial spy photos I hated it and thought it was an utter disaster. As I keep seeing pictures of this pop up, it is definately starting to grow. Not bad looking with the GTR roofline. Nissan's new signature headlights are something a bit more far fetched. After seeing a bunch of 09 maxima's, I hardly notice the L shape anymore.

I love the new blue color. It's almost Calsonic-blue. I didn't like the Daytona Blue even though I had one.

Maybe I should have waited for this car.

You have no idea.

It's like a trend thing I guess. Funny thing is I always liked it, then all these manufacturers start doing it. Look at the new Evo X, the new Mitsu Eclipse, the Vantage RS, the GTR, the LP560 (to an extent), the SLK, or the SL like you said. Even the M3 ALMS racer is doing it.

Even the current Nismo 350z has a blacked out front bumper.

Really? I love Daytona Blue. Infact I'm really interested to see how this new blue stacks up to it. So far its looking good.

I love it too, although certain cars cant pull it off. I hate that Nismo 350Z, but I think you were only using it to demonstrate

nismo is ugly lol

370z looks good, and it's gonna sound good and perform bettah!! i love the interior too...

FR305 · 11-18-2008, 07:36 PM

I think it's because I wanted a red one, but the blue one they had in stock was cheaper. I didn't like having a dark exterior and a dark interior.

Edit: Much better imo. The fangs mess up and overcomplicate the front.

That's sick man! Nice P-shop! Looks soooo much better, and I actually don't mind the headlights on this one.

Yeah the Nismo Z's design is a flop (over the top imo). Just a demo.

And yes, certain cars can't pull it off. However, if I had the proper tools to fabricate my own aftermarket bumpers, I'm pretty sure I could find a way to make that general design scheme work with pretty much any car.

If only.

Haha thanks. Besides blacking out the bumper, I 'shopped out the amber in the headlights and ditched the chrome (or polished silver, w/e it is) on the door handles and wheels. I tried blacking out the roof but it doesn't go at all with the car.

Fixed the headlights...kind of.

WOW...that is SO much better. I'm not a fan of the fangs either. They look odd.

Thanks
