Q:

...someone would do this to a Z-car. I feel like the life has been taken out of me after looking at this. I guess it works if you have to check on your ladies down at the corner now and then.

There is nothing wrong with doing what you want to your car as long as it doesn't endanger the safety of others. However it's another thing to try & sell it to someone with similar tastes afterwards. What get's me about this car is that the butt ugly/non functional ground effects & spoilers were bought off the shelf. Blame the designers & retailers for that ****.
This whole world smells bad, I'd buy another if I had
back what I paid for another mother@#$%@# in a motorcade
A:

Do what you want with your car. I have seen much uglier Z's. that one actually looks decent for a zx on the outside.

That padded dash, ooooh....kind of reminds me of burnt marshmallows. Yummy.

Holy cow, I can't believe you did not post this in Car Talk!
A:

Has anyone read the Q&A...the seller blatantly lies about his own product. Some fella asks if the bumper on the rear passenger side is "out of position" or is it just the "angle", and the seller responds by saying it is not out of position, but just the angle of the photo...clearly the bumper is out of position.....look!
