Nice ride, but I'd do something to go along with your black hood, if you are planning to keep it that color. Might want to accent more of the car in black and maybe paint the rear spoiler black too. The hood alone kinda sticks out like a sore thumb.

Looks good so far but I hope you plan on painting the hood to match the rest of the car.

Titus - and i hope you paint that bodykit. and get different seats for that matter.

Pongo - as far as other things to make black...the windows are 5%, so they help alot. but im not sure if im going to keep the car for much longer, or if i do, i might get another hood anyway...so i dont want to drop a few hundred to paint it just yet

Matt - track times from last season were mid 12's at 114 with 2.3 60's on street tires.

Take it easy there buddy. Didn't mean to offend you just wanted to say I think it would like nicer painted the same as body color. You don't always get comments you like when posting in an open forum for the entire world to see.

well, in all honesty, i just care more about my family then painting the hood.

i saw it forsale for cheap, so i bought it a few months back. alot of people around here compliment me on it, so i havent been real motivated to set money aside to paint it pewter yet.

as for the seats....i have no clue. its originally a hardtop, m6, cloth car....but the previous owner put them in, and i dont know why.

Looks nice, I hope you will paint the hood. Which wheels are those, stock formula? I like them.

Looks nice. I think you should remove the side molding and paint the hood if you do decide to keep it.

wheels are SLP WS6 wheels.

if i do keep it, ill get the hood painted eventually. its just not on the topof my list just yet. if it was primer, id do it asap, but its actually painted black (previous owner had black TA) soi can wax it and stuff and it comes out good

Oh, ok that makes sense then, but there are two different styles of ws6 wheels depending which years right? Know which years those are from? I have been looking for a used set like that for my Z
