hey guys me and my girl are trying to get ideas for her black 99z. She likes purple so we were thinking of some puple wireloom along with some billet pieces. She already has ghost purple flame job for her piant so we want to make things kinda match with the purple. Thanks in advance.

Sorry I don't have a more complete picture - but it looks pretty sweet with A/N fittings, SS line and the anodized components

I agree big time...Looks like crap no matter what color it is. I'd say just stick with simple stuff and just clean the hell out of it.

I definitely subscribe to theory of "less is more"...also not a big fan of colored wire loom...my advice: clean things up and try to hide and reroute those wires instead of bringing attention to them by putting them into purple loom...there's no problem with using purple as an accent color if she likes it, but I'd stay away from the wire loom.
