    It still looks awkward. A waste of a really pretty good car (originally). Goes to show that sometimes "stock" is best.

    I fail to see how the "after" looks any less awful.

    If anything, with that camber, it's even more full of fail than before.

    The ruined 350z is how most cars with body kits around here look. This car would have fit right in. And what did this guy really expect from these kinds of shops anyway? Most of the time the kids taking in their cars to have this crap installed don't know any better or don't care.

    Unfortunately, I'm hard-pressed to say the "after" is much of an improvement. And that drop just looks stupid.

    @HiramJahoovafat: Man I had some taillights "smoked" and polished rather than replace them (Thanks Hella!) and it cost more than that. They do look great though.

    Hopefully, this guy will leave the 370Z alone. By, you know, not trying to design his own SynchroRev Match.

    I give up. Popular aftermarket styling trends for cars just confuses me. This has been the case for at least 20 years.

    I think I just became a curmudgeon.

    I have looked, but failed to find the ridiculous promised. But am not disappointed. Except maybe about the wheels, and my doubts that the hood is not naked carbon fiber.
