    I have to say they look amazing :) i did my best, they're not 100% perfect but i'm happy with the results... now should i go for the veyron SS theme or just leave it as it is? also since i'll be mounting a FMIC soon wouldnt it be cool to make that orange? :D feedback is welcome! :p

    My honest opinion is that it looks like shit. Throw those wheels as far away as possible.


    Also, fix rear quarter damage and pull stupid sticker off.

    Good idea, but wrong wheels. But if you cant get new wheels right now then well done for trying a different style.

    I'd say go orange highlights, a full lower half is too much.

    Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh don't paint the FMIC , and yes nice attempt at doing something different, not a fan or the fluro/bright colours on wheels unless it's like polished alloy . As A2Zed said, go the thinnish stripe around the car like a good quality pin stripe otherwise your trying too over bling it.

    Gonna go against the grain and say I like em! Not something that I would do, but looks a lot better than I thought they would.

    actually it's just normal orange :) the clearcoat makes it brighter in the light and yeah i dont have any money so i cant afford wheels and tires right now, i saw some people painting the stock wheels black or green and i didnt like the look so i thought i'd try orange as it seems no one's done it before, also soon i'll be painting my calipers silver and the nissan logo orange

    orange fmic? fuk that, i guess if you like the rims thats all that matters but would not go overboard painting the whole car to match some stock painted rims that youl prob get over soon anyway. Like chrispy said, you should try fix that nasty ding next to the tail lights unless your actually gunna be drifting that thing in which case just wait till you properly ding the shit out of it elsewhere

    Not a fan either but as its your zed, you should do it as you want it. If you like it, then thats what matters. If you did if yourself, you did a pretty good job & should be very happy with the end result.

    Maybe try the orange colour on a better set of wheels instead of the stock ones.

    I don't hate this. It's different and not in a bad way.

    I say go do it, paint the lower half as well.

    Do it properly and make some stencils and paint 300ZX on the side too.

    Nah don't like it sorry. Take the stickers off and fix up the roof trim. Stock wheels look crap painted.
