Z32 2+2 - need suggestions
I just recently bought a 1990 300ZX 2+2 as a project car.
As far as paint goes, it still has the original white paint. It had a lot of oxidation and stuff built up but I took a buffer and buffing compound to it yesterday. I removed most of the outer layer of paint and then got the polish and wax out. The paint looks almost brand new.
The guy before me put Eibach springs on so it's dropped about 2 inches. The air dam is messed up a bit because he hooked it on a parking block. To fix it I'm getting a Veilside bodykit.
I'm also looking for some gunmetal performance rims. If anybody has any suggestions let me know.
Anyway, what I really need advice on is the interior. It's a wine red leather interior. It looks ok, but there's a few spots that need fixing. The drivers seat is in pretty rough shape too. So, basically do you think I should leave it the red or completely gut the interior and redo it in black? Right now I'm thinking just leave it in red, but get black seats (or seat covers).
If anybody has any ideas let me know.

What about the Wings West type-w kit?
I'm also looking at carbon fiber hoods. Is VIS Racing any good?
Sorry for my questions, I'm fairly new at all this. I'm getting an estimate on a new interior today. I probably won't do it myself, way too much work.
Thanks guys!

WW looks good. I would go with that before Veilside.

black interior owns
veilside body kits blows
carbon fiber hood is useless unless you like it for the looks. IMO it looks gay on ANY car unless its tasteful and painted like how it was intended to be.
just my $.02 but its your car and i dont drive it nor see it where i live.
