rtbiscuit Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 painting the plastics silver doesnt work for me, as it seem sto stilll look...well...plastic. if you want the aston ish look you'd need to replace the struts with really aluminium. the chrome strips work well as they only do the horizontals, so the verticals stay hidden. persoanlly i'd get a zunsport grille to cover the front. far more proffessional looking.

Ebized Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 That just reminded me Dave viewtopic.php?f=32&t=22261&hilit=bumper When you look at the pic on the car I think it works very well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRF4N Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 Narcotic that's hideous lol plz don't let ur car look like that dj Agree with the biscuit apart from the zunsport- sits too far out I would just cut theehole thing out and have mesh put in further back. I had mine done in black but some colours would suit silver Wot colours ur zed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djrm Posted December 16, 2010 Author Share Posted December 16, 2010 It's silver mate I'm not very keen on the idea now that I have seen photos... lol.. Think I might just stick with the black! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletMagnet Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 You could do a seasonal thing and leave the grille black but add some x-mas lights going around the edge instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcauleyj Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Hi, Newbie here - just got my Silver '04 350z in October. It came with the from Grille already colour coded (except the tow eye cober which is still black). Must do a post in the newbie section to see if anyone knows the car. Pic attached is one of the sellers. I havent got round to taking any myself yet. Ordered the LED rear lights from ZmanALEX so will get a few taken after that. I dont think I would have colour coded them personally, but they are that way now & I dont mind too much. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John cut them out and mesh it, or zunsport it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
