Impromptu Photoshoot

A few pics from an impromptu shoot by a good friend Patrick McGinnis. You can check out his work here:

http://jpmcgphotography.smugmug.com/

The location was last minute and piss-poor. But, the work is great as always. Note the sweet iCarbon front and rear promptly provided by DTMrack.com. Enjoy!

WOW! Very classy and clean!

I really like the sideskirts with the stock chin, which I think is much more aggressive looking than the Performance one.

What is the type & percentage of window tint?

If this hasn't already been submitted for COTM, it should be!

Icey Hott! Best AW setup seen!
What CF interior trim is that?

So you have both 370Z and 135?

BTW, I'm in ATL!

Definitely the best looking car that I've seen with the Apex wheels yet. Looks great, unfortunately now I don't have the nicest One when I'm in Alpharetta. What tires did you use to get 245 fronts to work, Falkens?

Thanks for the compliment! The tint percentage is 30% all the way around. What is not pictured, as it was done the day after, is the windshield is now tinted 45%. This darkens up the rest of the tint but keeps it legal.

I thought about that but the starkness of the silver didn't fit with the theme I am headed for. As a matter of fact, the rest of the headlamps will soon be darkened, as well. Hopefully from the inside, though. Seems these headlamps are a beast to get apart.

It is custom trim. Just covered in real carbon fiber unfinished. So it has a matte look and really no protection. I need to seal them with resin. And, no, the 370Z is gone. Traded away. I miss that car. For the better part of the year it was the only twin turbo 370Z Nismo in the world.

Honestly, no idea. They were on the car when I picked it up.

Michelin Pilot Sport PS2. Loving your Volks, btw!

They are OEM roundels with, believe it or not, carbon fiber stickers. *haha* They look excellent in person, but you can feel the sticker if you rub the roundel as it sits higher than the rest.
