Check these out and tell me what you think

Both of these additions to these Zs are beautiful mods to me:

Look at this MR2 style window (forget the wing):
Window Pic

Check out the lower diffuser:
Diffuser Pic

I'd love to do both of these mods to my car (after it looks a little better), whats everyones opinion about these mods on a Z?

Id like to get that diffuser but i've got a feeling nobody anywhere on this side of the world makes or sells em, but im sure fabricating one wouldnt be too hard (minus the price of real carbon fiber)

Don't know about that hatch... Who sells it? Is it a Paul Bailey hatch? I don't like how it dips down in the middle.

I dont think anyone makes it, i think it is a custom make, its from a japanese website so i couldnt understand anything on there without a translator *and that still doesnt help much*. I think the hatch would be pretty easy to duplicate just from the pic, and yea, id leave the dip out of the middle...maybe.

eh... that hatch makes the Z lose its original slickness. now the diffuser is actually pretty cool, you see that on a lot of gran touring cars

Please do, i dont think anyone stateside has one and it would be a great addition for anyone going for both weight reduction and for show points, so regardless of what the daily driver opinions of it is, id still be very interested in finding one for my car.

True true. It does have a unique look, but like Seraphic said it loses it's slickness.

A mere opinion, i think the slickness it looses is overcome by its uniqueness that it develops.

That website link was exactly what ive been looking for, not only do they have the hatch, but the also have the wide rear fenders ive been looking for, thanks a lot.
