Hello chaps,,,thinking of getting the bonnet,a double vented nose vent,roof and spoiler wrapped with carbonfibre effect film.

 

The car is a late 95 swb n/a in pearl white(FOR SALE),i think it will loo nice possibly powdercoat the bbs's black?

 

Your views please,have been quoted £380 plus vat from a local company.....

i wouldn't bother (but thats my opinion)

Don't see the point in modding it if it's for sale, your just limiting your potential customers.

 

Plus it will look gash imo.

I agree with the above. It'll look shit (IMHO) and it'll restrict the type of potential buyers.

 

Why not put the money to better use i.e. repainting the front bumper?

True as its the wrong colour! Thats a nice car and could do with being left as stock as possible, not many left like that anymore!

lol,,,hmmmm,i thought it might look ok,give it that jdm look,as for the front bumper im in a predicament,the bumper can be buffed to bring up the shine here it is slightly dark(dusty) however the grey bits where the indicators go is flaking(very slightly)wasn't too sure if i could get the colour code for it(does anyone know what it is).

 

many thanks for your opinions it helps alot.

The best thing you could do to impove looks is to get spacers for those wheels. The offset if all wrong for the Z which is why they are tucked in the arches so much.

 

Carbon wrapping would severly limit potential buyers.

that offset is horrible.lol!!

I think the carbon effect would seriously de value the car. Plus the price you've been quoted is waaayyyy out of line. The local graphics place near mine could do it for half that price.

If you were to do it, would the sale price reflect this? Surely if you are trying to sell it then you don't want to modify it and spend money, unless you are making an arm and a leg out of the deal from when you imported it. In that case then why not lol :thumbup:

if you do get it done, funkyboogaloo is your man. though you would have to go on a.n.other enthusiasts forum to find him :turned:

nope matey no arms and legs out of the deal,the cars priced cheap as it is,well if i was to spruce her up i'd obviosuly relect that within the price(price increase),however it was just a thought the other being getting them sprayed mica black.we shall see...

i like the idea of the spacers so i guess ill go with that...
