Big brave keyboard warriors?

Why? For posting their opinion on his car which is what he asked for?

This. Jesus, people are so defensive nowadays.

He asked for opinions and got them. Nothing posted consututes 'keyboard warrior' does it, really?

The irony is strong in these warrior posts. Haha

Not as strong as the bullst is in yours though ey

ETA: haha

What are you even saying? We're commenting on a CAR, an inanimate object, not a person. Nobody is making aggressive, angry or threatening statements, how could that possibly be perceived as being a keyboard warrior??

[ManOpener]

1) Posters asks for opinions on whether his car is "decently modified"
2) People give opinions
3) Some arse complains about people doing 2) in response to 1) and accuses everyone of being "keyboard warriors"

???

You're very odd.

[jimjam92]

Wow OK guys let's not let this get out of hand.

YES I was asking for opinions and YES I know it is not to everyone's taste. The important thing is that I like it and am happy to keep building it into the car that I want. However constructive criticism would be more useful than 'you've ruined it.'

For anyone that's interested the modification list is

XXR 530 wheels 18x8.75 front 18x9.75 rear
Dunlop Sport Maxx tyres
Black Diamond slotted and drilled disks
Factory Brembos
EBC Redstuff pads

Ings N-Spec Front Bumper
Full respray in July 2015 - Audi Sepang Blue
Toyosport catback exhaust
Z1 motorsports 'Z-tube' with Blitz SUS filter

It's the front splitter that looks dubious to me. It might be OK, if a little OTT, combined with a similarly styled set of sills and rear bumper but on its own it just looks out of place.

Who cares as long as you like it though.

[smithyithy]

I think it looks good overall, I am a 350Z fan, and you've obviously done some cool things to it.

The only thing I don't like is the front bumper as I don't think it compliments the rest of the car, personally I'd go for a lip, I think Nismo make one and probably a few other brands.

But at the end of the day it's your car and your money, if you like it that's all that matters, it's certainly not ruined by any stretch of the imagination (at least you haven't 'stanced' it!)

Fair enough. The wheels are ok, the front spoiler is ugly and why the hell are the lights yellow?





The standard car looks great, yours doesn't.

And for the sake of examples of relatively tasteful 350z's:





Though personally i think it's like drawing a moustache on Charlize Theron.

It's a hell of a sight nicer than that Crossfire

I like the wheels (although it's a shame they're knock-off copies rather than "proper" ones... but that's just my own personal bias). The bumper isn't terrible, but it isn't great either, and the fit looks quite a ways off; the bonnet line is gaping like the crack of Dawn but the wings are tighter than a nun's . Don't get the yellow lights, though they don't upset me. I just can't understand why you'd want your hotpoop Jap boulevard bruiser to look like a 1970s Renault 4

Overall, she's a ten-yarder

[k-ink]

I am sure the mechanical mods may be good. However it looks like a right mess. Clashing blue, yellow, lumpy body kit, just horrid to look at. If all those mechanical mods were done to a standard looking car it may have been great. I'm not a twenty something fan of Fast and Furious, so just my 2p.

[Digitalize]

I thought it was against the rules to post your own car anyway? Unless it is really good.

[SlimJim16v]

Tyres too narrow for the wheels, on the rear at least. Bumper not to my taste, otherwise quite good.

[budgie smuggler]

Bumper looks like it doesn't fit (panel gap to bonnet). Number plate looks like it's falling off. Splitter too low at the front, doesn't match the high rear end. Yellow lights don't go with anything else.

I do like the wheels though

These posts remind me of the joke...

Darling, be careful driving home tonight, there's an idiot driving down the wrong way on the freeway.

One idiot? There bloody loads of them!

Potentially the best car on this thread (for me anyway)......and its up against some bloody stiff competition!!

[stephen300o]

These one off cars can be made with incredible quality nowadays, the fit and finish is quite amazing, but not sure you could use this like you could use a Veyron, that is when the testing comes in.
Wonder what the pro touring car industry is worth right now, seems to still be expanding.
