I'm surprised why you're not running a vented hood.

Other than that it's blinding.

Thanks. I know the engine bay is kind of dirty. When I have time, I will take the parts out and get them polished. Currently I am too busy setting up the new shop and stuff like that.

The color is the 350Z blue.

What kinda wheels are those? Widths and offset?

And why no sleek light?

I'm not crazy about the flares or diffuser either.

The wheels are SSR professor SP-1 which I imported from Japan for the customer.

The fronts are 18x10 with +43mm offset. The backs are 18x12 with +24mm offset.

HID Sleek headlight will be put on later when I get the components in.

It's not my car. It belongs to a very good customer of mine. Mine is undergoing some major changes. Hopefully it will be finished in 2-3 months.

Looks good. Too bad you couldn't connect that front fender flare all the way down to the bottom of the front bumper. That would help smooth out the look a little IMO.

That flare piece is designed to work with the Mazdaspeed 15th anniversary front bumper. With all the others, you have to cut it off because it does not sit flush with the surface of the bumper.

The bodyshop should have sanded it down right there to create a smooth line but it's kind of too late now.

Nice Chuck. I like how you combined the Pettit flares to the MS sideskirts. Somthing I'd like to do in the future. How was the fitment of the Pettit flares?
