oofa. I give him props for the work, but that belongs on a trashed Honduh Civic... not a 280zx.

Too extreme. Not the flowing lines that I love so much. Like the rear but it looks like it might break. Nice work though.

Fugly is not even the word I would describe it. I would have to think up a word...any help would be appreciate it.
Props on the labor!
Its like someone dropped a huge bucket of pain and its like the excess is coming out on the bottom.

i like the fact it makes it look wider and would allow for some kick *** wide rims but agree it loses the classic lines

Traditional fender flares would do the same, and actually look good.
