Nissan has come a long way with auto manufacturing in the last decade. The 350Z is now one of their hottest cars on the road. There is only one way to make these cars look even hotter, and that is with body kits. This is the 5th generation of the Z-Car line up, and most impressive to date.
So if you were to customize this Fairlady Z as it is also known as, you should start with the exterior. Body kits can do so much for a car. Most people think of body kits as being strictly aesthetic and having zero functionality. This is completely false. Body kits are performance accessories that look great, or the other way around if you wish. This Depends on what your primary goal might be.
If your primary goal is performance then you will want to look for body kits made of some of the best materials. This could be a top quality fiberglass, urethane, or carbon fiber. All of these materials for body kits have their advantages and disadvantages. Fiberglass is generally more fragile and can be damaged fairly easily, but higher quality fiberglass can be more durable. Fiberglass can be repaired though if needed. Urethane is more flexible and more expensive, and Carbon Fiber body kits are very light weight and durable as well. Usually you only have the one color choice in carbon fiber body kits, and it's that dark grey or black.
Top brand body kits for carbon fiber:
- Carbon Creations
- Carbing Craft
- Seibon Carbon Fiber
- Vis Racing
Top Brand Fiberglass and Urethane Body Kits:
- Extreme Dimensions
- Buddy Club
- Veilside
- Wings West
- AIT Racing
All of these brands make top quality ground effects and you should be sure that if you buy a body kit you should have a professional help you install it unless you are well qualified to do it yourself. Body kits will come primed and ready for paint so if you have a body shop installing it for you, have them paint it up as well.
