Before you put the badges back only, see what you've got. I'm thinking it will look better clean or with only a partial re-install.

Well i figure without them it may look too white. I figure since ive got the carbon fiber look badges tehn it will add to the cars hood, top and other black accents. They will be the standard 4, Hood, trunk and side repeaters. Witch will be sunken into the body. As of now they stick out a bit.

Not even an M. Though I might consider that to be a good thing.

as for the tips i think the look good. I wanted something different so i figured it would look good. a diffuser will be going into place in the rear as soon as its made. It should fill the void. As for the wide body i love it. Its suttle enough for it not to make a comotion but yet far from looking like any other Z

Maybe I'm a purist, but the hood completely kills it. To complete the look the hood is throwing, I think you need to paint the driver's door a completely different color (so it looks like it came off another donor car) and then slap some grey primer all over one of the fenders with some bondo showing...
