    you may all think i'm crazy, but since owning my zed i've always wondered how it would look without the sticking out rear bumper. I remember 300zxt posted a pic of a z31 that had the sticking out part of the valance shaved off, looked hot as. But then again the lines of a z31 are more hard and straight edged than a z32, and the rear lights on a z32 are angled up. I did a very quick mock up in photoshop. I don't think it'd look so great on 2+2 but what do you guys reckon on a 2 seater? Just a thought, or am i retarded?

    ok can't make the pic any bigger for some reason. Pretty low quality anyway. You can click on it if you wanna see it bigger. I dunno bout my idea...just speculating...
    it's just the old school sports car look that i miss in the 300zx, like the 240z shape

    Doesn't look that bad. agree with the porsche comment though.......and it also ages that car slightly.

    definitely wouldn't slam anyone for doing it though.

    i hadnt liked the bit that stuck out up untill now, i wondered what i would like without it and well youve now answered that question. In my opinion it looks far better with it.

    yeah it does look a bit odd i guess. Here's another i made on a white zed haha. Looks a bit odd, and i angled the exhaust tip with the bumper as well :p

    I don't mind the look of that at all(although I think the bottom of the rear side should be kept parallel to the rear spoiler).:zlove::zlove:

    i can't find a way to embed it in the thread without it being supermassive (ie. if you go to the full size image and select properties you'll get the actual url of the image, but it's about twice as big as my screen lol.

    that yellow one is quite nice. I like the idea of bringing the underside up on an angle like i've done in my pics. Maybe not that severe but yeah. Kinda like what that guys done with the black bit painted to follow the lines of the 1/4 window onto the hatch too
