Meh, the white one is averagy. I'd do soooo much more to it if I had more money. My perfect Z would be as follows....

 

2+2 TT base.

Complete respray in Bayside blue.

UK spec window tints.

Complete new external trim.

Genuine 99-spec rear spoiler and lights.

Escort Racing front bumper

Kaminari side skirts

Smooth or kaminari rear bumper

Billyboat exhaust (oval tips)

Black roof bars

99-spec headlights

Tein EDFC coilovers

19" BBS LM (9" front with +20 offset and a mildly rolled lip, 10" rear with +35 and a mildly rolled rear lip).

 

Pretty much it. :)

That sounds like a highly mod'ed Z;)

What does the Escort Racing front bumper look like?

Wouldn't class it highly modded. Thing is, there's a difference between highly modded and tastefully modded. The stuff mentioned above is very good quality gear and it still retains the Zs original lines. No nasty vents, cutouts, minging lights etc. Just sweet and simple.

 

Escort racing front bumper is basically a 99-spec with a subtle lip....like so...

Modified stock to look as close to the 99 spec as possible, this is what i'm aiming for.

 

Smoothed stonechip, 99 spec lights, spoiler and front bumper

Totally agree, Ive done things to mine that people disagree with, but who cares. I love the look and wouldn't change a single thing.

 

Do what you think is right or you probably won't be totally happy with it.

 

Just my two cents worth, i'll shut up now :rolleyes:

That's the SR-71 special edition for the USDM market.

Improved stock for me also

 

Love this zed posted by Si. Thats the type of rear bumper I'd like.

Improved stock. Make it to your own spec but remembering that wheels, exhaust etc can always be changed to anothers preference. If you mod the hell out of the Zed then be prepared to face a long wait if you ever need to sell. Classic car status is just around the corner for this great machine and you don't see many modified classic cars - unless they are on the track!
