Agreed, if someone gave me this aero, it would be on the zilvia classified as soon as I got it off the car.

Let someone elses car be a poster boy for the entire Pep Boys fender vent and trim catalog.

Next up, that chrome tape.


EDIT: I want to add, the entire execution of that car is top notch, I'm just not a fan of the "kit".

Yes, I'm not saying it's slapped together, as you can tell it's well executed, however, it is just an ugly as fuck car. I'm not digging the "style" if you would/could even call it that.

Honestly, if the kit is just painted one color and doesnt have any highlighting trim paint on it, it would look 100% better and appeal to more people.

But honestly, its still not my cup of tea...I like aggressive lined kits better.

Time cannot come fast enough. Won't lie though, that aero minus stupid vent things is super subtle and clean. I'd get it.

Otherwise, it's just way too tacky.

Personally, I'm not a fiberglass, extreme body kit person. I like/rock OEM aero and love it.

Don't get me wrong, there are some nice looking cars out there with extreme aero, it's just not my style and never has been. I like subtle exterior upgrades to complete the look. I'll be purchasing a new NaVaN bumper and German glass headlights in the next few months to finish my Zenki's exterior.

A few weeks ago this happened:


Coming home I hit this little fellow. A piece of water pipe laying in the middle of the road.


The trail i left.


Had to get that shit towed.


The damage:


And as a bonus, when the tow truck driver lowered the front of my car off the wheel dolly, my coilover decided to break. Yay for shitty recalled isis coilovers. The front right side actually broke before in a similar way but I got it welded.

It was time to get some new coilovers so I ended up getting some Fortunes. Ken at Enjuku gave me a great deal.



So I threw on the coils and waited for my new oil pan to arrive.
Yesterday I put the pan on and today my friend was able to align the car. Car is back on the road again after a few weeks downtime. Here are some pics I took today after getting back from the alignment.

still kicking ass with the 2001 mesh, Miami Vice Ferarri Testarosa louvers/scoops...

Sorry, just too much going on for a simplistic body like a Zenki. Same reason I don't like koukis, and will never own one, the front looks like some weird conversion to me, it doesn't match the smooth sexy lines well IMO.

What hood is that? might need something like that to clear my intake/SC....
