stevie_350z Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Wow, a two-tone Z! I hope you are ready for the hoover comments (most likely from Sarnie! ) I like it without the spoiler... have you got a pic of the spoiler? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Removed Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 are the rims OZ vela? proper bi/colour too! you are missing the VS emblem at the front too looks hot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ir_fuel Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Not too bad , just the arches are covering the wheels a bit too much imho esp. at the rear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob2005 Posted December 21, 2006 Author Share Posted December 21, 2006 Emblem is also on its way. £79 for the front emblem I am ready for the hoover comments lol but if we were all the same then life would be dull i suppose. The wheels are Ap41's similar to the Oz's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Removed Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 yeah but they have VERY cool stone emblems to choose from, haven't they? so was the car originally silver or black? did you just do 1 or the 2 colours or both? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob2005 Posted December 21, 2006 Author Share Posted December 21, 2006 The car was originally silver so it was only the bonnet, roof and bootlid that needed painting. However we did spray the silver again to take out a few small dents and ensure a perfect result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 bit of a bottom feeder, but each to their own. What ever tickles ya fancy is good certainly can see do spent a bit of time and money on ya Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I'm not keen on the kit however the two tone makes it look far better. It really changes the proportions of it. I love the paint. It's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Went back for a second look. I'd leave the spoiler off! It looks sweet without it. Agree with the wheels comment. You need some big wide wheels to make it look mean! *Think two tone wheels* it could work... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trev-the-Rev Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I like the two-tone. But I'm bound to say that with my avatar. Agree with others' comments about leaving off the spoiler and also painting the wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H5 Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I like it. It's not supposed to look like a standard Zed, hence the kit. Not sure how big the spoiler is but think it will take some of the 'weight' (visually) off the bottom half of the car and finish it off. For me it's a 'Fast and the Furious' effort which I have a lot of respect for. Maybe not everyone's cup of tea but I quite like it. Changes for me would be wider rear wheels as they look a bit lost, and fully adjustable suspension to allow it to be properly dropped, purely for aesthetic reasons. Top marks for going the whole hog on the spraying. Any chance of an indication what the colours actually are and the cost?? PM me if needs be.

lomoto Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 like the look of that, could do with some wide rims on rear as has been said before..certainly spices up the silver colour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Not sure about it. Im sure ill spot it about Cardiff soon enough. Who fitted & sprayed the kit for you? I need some work done on my front bumper so any reccomendation would be appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob2005 Posted December 22, 2006 Author Share Posted December 22, 2006 Done the work ourselves. I run a company called Keltix Performance in Treforest south Wales. With regards to the wheels they are 10x19" on the rear with 275 tyres, i think its the angle of the pic but i do agree they could be wider. Thanks for the comments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickya Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Great lookin car mate ps agree with Digsy, its not the wheels width but the offset thats the problem. Need approx 20mm to 30mm for the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomoto Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 20mm required, it looks like you have 30mm or more now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the comments Did/Has your Zed got a Keltix sticker by the door? Seen a GM coupe in Ty Glas a few weeks ago with a Keltix Sticker. Ill PM you later with details of work needed & ill try and pop down soon, I live in Caerphilly so its only a 5minute drive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob2005 Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 Hi Yes it used to have Keltix stickers on the side. Come down any time mate, as your in caerphilly your literally 5 mins away. Had a look into the offset on my wheels and i have 35mm on the rear which is certainly not right so i have ordered hubcentric 10mm spacers. Thanks for all the comments guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
