Riced out Silver 350z with fake tips

[Steven622]

You were cruising north on I25, right before 6th avenue at around 1pm

You had fake exhaust tips welded onto your stock exhaust, a really ugly chrome grill and your car was bone stock (from the sound of it)

You also had horrible chromed out wheels that were made by some noname brand, and your offsets were god awful on both the front and rear.

Too bad the Z is starting to get really affordable now.

Damn I didn't know spotted threads on local forums could also be threads to rag on other peoples cars :(

On a side note.. to each his own lol.

It isn't I just thought the fake quad exhaust tips were hilarious, and the wheel's were funny too.

I dunno, I don't like fake tacked on stuff. I'd imagine that person's next item to shop for are fake pepboy's fender vents.

Looks like Porsche 911 tips.

Offsets look pretty good to me.

Okay so at first I'm like "What's the big deal" I don't really see anything and then:

Okay the tips, not so cool. Wheels seemed okay to me but I don't drive a Z.

Maxima's are becoming very affordable to :rolleyes:

Dunno, could of just been angle, rear were sunk in about a good inch, but had so much camber on them that they looked pretty angled. Fronts were the same way.

Dunno, don't mean to flame, but the tips were pretty funny.


As for stuff getting Cheap, Liquid350z's old Z that he got for the turbo kit is a great example of it. I'm still jealous that he got a turbo kit and all that other stuff pretty much for free. Lucky devil.

Don't get me wrong, I know the Z is a cheap affordable sports car and is nothing special, but I hate seeing tacky crap on it like this:

Chrome door handles + BIG chrome wheels what else am I missing? Honestly not so bad but then again chrome is my style.

I may do carbon fiber pillar covers due to small chips in the pillar paint, I opted against the chrome ones due to "chessyness". 20in rims on my car may work for looks but the ride will suffer and rubber is expensive. Not sure what size are on that black Z, but they do look a touch big.

It kinda sucks because the Z is such a beautiful car and some people would ruin it with crazy things that they think is "cool"

[datsun_d]

I think its the z car destiny that some of them end up ugly and wrongfully modified, as was the fate of a lot of s30's

[Bee2]

Um. Really? This is such a mean thread. Mod should lock.

You started this to bash a car you saw on your drive today. To be honest judging from the last picture the offset on those wheels is better than 80% of everyones on this forum. Yeah those tips aren't my cup of tea but maybe he likes them. The scene here is so small this guy might be on here, this would really suck to be reading if I was him. That car isn't that bad.

^ I agree. Everyone has their own taste in cars, and since it is their car, let them do what they want. I understand people's tastes differ, so do opinions. If this guy/gal was a member on CONOC we would have to respect them as well, eventhough i don't think this person is a member on here.

I don't think Steven had bad intentions posting this up, but i will lock.
