Anyone else find this oddly attractive?

 

 

what about silver?

No, sorry. It looks terrible IMHO. Get some black paint on there sharpish. Don't 2-tone it from that part of the car as it looks God awful.

lol just me then, its not staying that way its just primer, im in the process of smoothing it. Only the other side left to do :D

Think it would be ok in a different colour

NO!!! It would look trashy.

Good man! Smoothed rockguard really smartens up the car. On black it'll be really noticable and will look much more slick.

I agree with Si, i'd never actually spray the bottom another colour. Must just be me getting used to seeing it like it lol

I wouldn't do it either, but could work with the right colours

Was pics of your car that i see a while back that made me want to do it.

 

Bitch of a job sanding it all down though!

Anoying thing is how long it takes to tape everything up, took me over an hour just doing that

Really? Cool. I think Mr. Funge said the same thing to me. :)

 

I know, I did part of the rear bumper with an oscillating sander and I did one side of it and got fed up with it, so just took the lot to the bodyshop and it took them ages, the front bumper especially!

....PS, time to get some adjustable camber arms and spacers on those front wheels. :)

Yea they're in desperate need of bigger spacers got 3mm atm i think. I need longer wheel nuts if i do though...

No, you need bolt-on hubscentric spacers. Nice peices of kit and MUCH stronger than the universal ones. I'd imagine you could fit 20 - 25mm on yours. What width are your front wheels?

 

235

No, wheel width, not tyre width and what offset?

Sorry, i believe its: 8.5x18" ET35

I'd double check that. With the amount your front wheels are tucked in and that width, I'd suggest they might be nearer to something like ET45?

Hmmm im a total noob when it comes to this stuff, how do i measure offset?

Take the wheel off and see what's stamped on the hub mounting surface. There should be stamped on there, the wheel width and offset.

I'l have to check the weekend, the hub kits from z-centre?

I have to agree.......

 

.......2-tone like that = pants in any colour. Don't do it:nono:

The ones from Z-centre look like they are for cars with wide arch conversions as they are like 60mm spacers or something.

 

I got mine from POTN. They are made by Eibach are for the 350Z (same PCD). But you can get them from Driftworks too.

Excellent i'l check the wheels the weekend. Once i find out the offset i'l check what size im gona need, decent price too. Thanks for the help Si!

No problems. Any questions, bung me a PM. I went through all this recently and I know the max offset you can push. What's yours lowered by? On coilovers?
