Max.

Actually my biggest inspiration was Peugeot 205 T16. Another car is

Ford Escort RS Cosworth. As for the nose, Jaguar F Type prototype was one of my inspirations.

The shape of the front fenders are very much like that of Ferrari F-40`s.

 

Here`s a question: Has anybody ever built a "flip-nose" S30?. I`d like to see that.

Thanks.

I like it... :D ALOT.

 

I like how the side skirt actually almost seems like it's barely if any lower than the origonal, more of just "out" to match the flaring. I like the rear of the side skirt too. I also like how the rear wide body transition doesn't look too porsche-ish. Nice and smooth with an even as possible transition.

 

Just watch out my friend, people are gonna start asking for mockups of other stuff. You're a photo wizard. I bow my head low.

Thanks for the nice words.

Just to make one thing clear:

I don`t consider myself a "photo wizard".

When i design something new, I make sketches of it. And then I usually use illustrator and photoshop to turn it into a decent looking rendering.

 

As for fellow Z guys asking for mockups: PM me and we`ll talk.

I just brought the car home 20 min ago and shot a few quick pics. I had to do it inside the garage because it was getting pretty dark already.

I need some final body prep to make sure everything is ok, then its time to shoot some paint on'er.

 

I quite happy with the look. It looks factory like, like it belongs. The car now has a nice and low stance from the rear. Makes it look wider and makes the wheels look wider too. Strange how seeing less tire height, gives it a wider appearance. Me likes. Now I really am a "Fat Bottom Boy" hehe

I like the look of the Corrado addition, and the big vent/diffuser screen. Your car definately sits low enough in the front that the additional rear drop should look at home. The biggest ting that I like is the addition of the dual exhaust. It gives balance and frames your current vent. I just finished new duals on mine, and it looks much better than the previous single pipe.
