Beautiful 240z. You've done a really nice job on it. I think the rims look great. The headlight surrounds in black throw me a bit. It looks fine in the front, but distorts the profile. The old car traditionalist in me thinks the whole body in orange would suit it best.

I hope you take my opinion with the friendly enthusiasm I send it with.

or as the saying goes 'opinions are like a-holes... everyone has one'. :)

yeah it actually was painted orange but the previous owner got bored and had the black done. I didn't like it at first but it really grew on me and now i like it :laugh:

In all seriousness, that is one SEXY S30! :doublethu

Also, nice looking 2.5RS coupe, those are hard to come by.

Appreciate it! The RS is the DD and it's a 99. It's stock except axleback and the prodrive wheels

Your Z is siick. Judging by the work you've done on it, I'm sure the wagon will be sweet too.

jonmandude Nov 1, 2008 12:23 PM
