    edit -
    Or...... you could stop setting yourself up for such ridicule with promoting a planned worldwide marketing scheme with such poor images. Keep it to yourself, and present something more indicative of your final design at a later stage. Perhaps once its nearing completion???
    I see what you mean, but its better to make the kit as best as it can be before I complete it.

    I can't say I like this kit or idea either. At least.. as a minimum.. put together a decent photoshop picture of your design. I could probably.. most definitely whack together a design within a couple of hours that is above the standard of your current designs in photoshop. Maybe include some realistic measurements or something? Your idea just needs something solid to back it up I think..

    Personally I would have tried to finish a prototype of the kit first.. that fits on the actual car.. then present your product to the public. It would save all the trouble of having people tear your idea to shreads.

    I think it's true what many people have said. We like our zeds because of their lines, and their already near perfect look. From the perspective of an artist though, you should respect the original creator's design without completely changing it. That's why the more popular kit designs have been ones that accentuate or build upon the original design. To me your design is too "flowing" for the zed. Flowing from an artist's point of view usually means things like peace and harmony. I think the 300zx is more of an aggressive car with sharper lines and contours with subtle curves to show that its a mean car.. but still in it's own unique way refined and elegant. It's this balance that makes the original design so great.

    To improve upon the original design. You first need to understand the intended aesthetics of the original design and then enhance it without overdoing it.. or putting the balance out of whack.. not saying it'd be an easy task though.

    Here are failed attempts at remaking the Z

    This one actually looks pretty cool (though it doesn't resemble a Z anymore).

    You could use it for your salt pan top speed run mikey :D

    All right guys, I'm pretty sure he gets the message no one else likes it...I myself nearly vomited when I saw that first image.

    Arashi, your efforts are commendable (your image editing skills are not though sorry - maybe get some help there from someone with half an idea?) and Im sure you'll enjoy your Z once its all finished...I just wouldn't be trying to make a market out of it as it will be very small, actually I'd say zilch (at the moment anyway with what we have to go on).

    I was also wondering, why are you using the Infiniti symbol as your logo and bonnet badge?

    Cheers!

    I think ive seen pictures of huge head burning microwaves on a humvee.
    It wouldnt be feasible on a Z unless you want to permanently blind someone, perhaps a turret gun that is control by a joystick in the car.
    key words; laser, turret, and gun... I bet the private defense industry will be all over it :p

    Well its not all that great, I live in my mothers downtown living room.
    with threats of being kicked out and a voice that can push buttons... the kit will have to look good and make me a rich man. Second option would be to get a joby job.

    Why when I can work at what I like doing.

    Too good, I would sweet talk to so many ladies and I'll probably end up with some venereal disease because the stereo type Hajj guys wouldnt cheat on their wives... In Vancouver we have lots of Indian Canadian cab drivers and they mostly wear their religious turbans... damned if there going to get caught cheating with one of those on. I would have free reign over the city.

    NA or TT kits only.

    Ok everyone here knows that I make the STROSEK wide body kits.
    And they are for 2+2 and 2+0.
    Not NA or TT so how is it that a kit can only fit a NA and not the TT.
    What external part on the car beside intercooler vents are stopping it from fitting the TT.
    If it is just the vents why can't you just put some in.
    I think that every after market front bar these days has the vents so that NA or TT owns can buy them.
    You have limited your self from the word go.
    You don't need the TT there with you to know where they need to go.


    Yes I know now im just encouraging him.:rofl:
