Sweet 370Z mod...
One of the guys over at the G37 forums (myg37.com) just posted a new headlight project for the 370Z and I just had to see what you guys think. I thought it looked amazing personally......











Not too sue about the color-matched shrouds (I'd probably go with flat silver or chrome) but the lights look nice. Dare I say, Aston-ish?!? lol.

first thing that comes to mind is.........
"you're clear for landing"
its kinda cool, but the colored shrouds make it look like a plasma cannon or something.

I was expecting an entire new front end including new headlights.... oh well

It looks nice even though the headlights still look like they have some sort of cancerous growth

I like it, but then again I might just be caught up in the LED fad...

I like the color matching either way.

does the GTR do this? I know one of the concepts had the "running lights" to give a more aggressive appeal.

Painting the shrouds are ugly as hell, otherwise it looks okay. If he painted them flat black or left them stock, they would've been better.

I like the color match, but not the landing strip lights. I'd be afraid to drive that around on foggy days.

I like it. I actually hated that car untill I saw one in front of me and sat in it. Now I really like it and the lights don't bother me as much.

Meh.
It's ok. I think I'd have to see it in person, but just based all those pictures, it's not my favorite.

Definitely don't like the LEDs; not sure about the bezels, but I'm leaning towards no for them, as well.

Wait, you guys are talking about the "runway" LED strips? I thought those were factory? The *painted* projector and turn signal shrouds on the other hand, are not.

If the notch went away from the bottom part, the headlight assembly would look good.

Not feeling the LED, but a very nice painted light barrel. It's tough to be different with a newer vehicle, so I give it a B.
