Riced 350Z

I've found this Nissan 350Z today. Do you like it? I do (apart from the colour).

It could be worse...
I like it because it extends the hood, like on the old Datsuns that the 350Z is supposedly based on. I think the 350Z is a silly tribute to the Datsuns, because it contains next to no design cues from the original, save the part that it's a sports coupe.

It looks kind of fake so I don't like it in this case but the JGTC version wich some would label as "rice looking" I do like

No I don't like it. The front facia kit looks horrible. The owner could have gotten a much better look from a nice set of wheels. I do like the color though.

First of all, why do you say it's rice? That's a perfectly good Veilside kit, so you better get your words straight before you call that car rice. I think it looks pretty cool. Too bad he only bought the front skirt. I think it would look much better if he would have bought the whole kit and maybe a spoiler.

I think it is ugly along w/ most veilside kits. And what is the point? does making the front longer help performance? wouldnt it just ad more weight? besides somebody's particular own taste its pretty pointless to me. Most kits normally hinder airflow more than stock anyways. And this one is just too flashy, i like low key style.

It doesn't look tooooo bad, but would be better if he got the whole kit instead of just the front bumper. I think it needs a spoiler to "balance" the look.
