the pictures do no justice.. car looks 100x better in person literally... when weiboy showed me his cellphone pic of this car before i seen it in person, i was like wtf is with the fugly graphics.. but then when i saw the car in person it totally blew me off.. 305/25 stretched tires.. his purple burnt quad exhausts, GTR manifold (i think)..

the exhaust piping was sitting 1 finger away from the ground literally

The graphics were designed by SPC for their booth at SEMA 2010. I personally wanted to run a different theme but it was their booth. Now the Seibon parts are on the car as a deal for the cover shoot for PAS Magazine. Again, this was partially out of my hands on the matter. Now the hood fits excellent and no one on the market made a GTR style hood except for Seibon. The weave is good and the fitment is good. The only Seibon parts are the parts no one had made for the Z yet like C-pillar replacements and Mirror Replacements along with the GTR style hood. Say what you will about seibon I know these parts fit really well and look great in person. I also refused to run certain parts and caught a lot of heat because they would have made the car look cheap!

I am honestly excited to get the car back and run down some super cars

on a side note the only reason graphics are still on the car is because GTM is in cali and I am in GA... I would have taken them off at SEMA but I had a plane to catch. That and GTM doesnt have the time to remove all those stickers while working on other peoples cars.

Congrats Mike. Nice build. Hopefully you get it back soon to tear up the streets!

Thanks for all the comments and thank you xlack for posting the pictures!

Its true on the web the car looks just ok. In person it will blow your mind how beautiful this car is. We have a few more additions and changes going on in the car. There will be a whole new interior and sound system going in the car. We will also be shaving the door handles along with extending the fenders out and whole new front fenders styled after the Amuse 380RS fenders for the 350z. We have some racing seats going in the car as well...

I am hoping we can get a feature in SuperStreet magazine or Modified magazine. We are also hoping to make an appearance in the japanese magazines as well!

What's the cost of a project like this to the customer? Over $20,000?

Sorry, but this car won't out run anything with exhaust dragging on the ground like that. Show queen, yes!. Real world condition, not so much.
