Thanks everyone.. you have no idea how long the molding took... more pics soon on the entire molding process... the bodyshop is a sponsor for my site, so he gave me an incredible discount on the labor.. sh*t...he spent over $300 on this new 3M Epoxy!

If you paid the guy full price, how much do you think it would have cost?

I'd be very interested to see the pics of the molding as well.

Those pics of the process will come soon... to the normal customer, it would have been $1200 for the amount of labor and materials he needed to do this. I felt kinda bad because he didn't realy make any money...but at least he covered cost and I've been sending him a crapload of customers.....

nice...

a few suggestions:

1. Get some 06 Tails
2. Drop the rear more.
3. get rid of that oem spoiler or get a slightly bigger spoiler ( it looks like a girl with a big ass and small body)

That rear is not a full bumper replacement. The rear apron was molded to his bumper. Notice the line across the middle of the bumper on this car with the same rear

His is molded on so that line doesn't appear.

good suggestions! yeah, maybe '06 tails down the road.. the LEDs are nice! but not a priority with my turbo and built motor expenses.... I like my OEM spoiler, might do a SLIGHTLY larger one.... and the rear, I'm keeping it that height. thans!

I thought you were looking to pick up a new set of wheels though...I coulda sworn you posted about a change on some split 5 spokes...volks i think...might have been someone else than, too lazy to do a search lol. anyways good stuff. mattg is right, this will be a pretty pimp Z when you are done.........06 LEDs are a must

njzprettyboy- Yeah, the deal was done last week... but then the seller backed out because I didn't want the tires (he got some weird combo on teh tires). Anyways, kinda glad that I didn't go through... I like the kit with my current wheels..also, I need the extra cash I would have dished out on tires/new wheels for gauges and some other stuff..... I may just powdercoat the wheels a glossy black color next spring
