    That 3rd brake light panel is notoriously easy to break. Your best bet is to get a Twin Z spoiler. It will cover that panel and looks so much better. Then you can either paint that part of the spoiler black or get a vinyl sticker to cover that section.

    wingless is my vote for the 300zx, I had one that was wingless and I think it looks best without one. Those Wheels are amazing and perfect for the 300zx, glad you guys are giving Motegi the love they deserve, they make fantastic rims and they have some solid lightweight models at a good price that doesn't break the bank.

    If you get a new one of those pieces Ricky broke, PPF it on both sides and let it cure before you install it. This way it should have some strength to it for install and just normal wear and tear in the future. Especially with sun exposure.

    I have a 1992 twin turbo with Varstoen ES2's (19x9.5 in front and 19x10.5 in rear). I didn't do any camber adjustment at all in the rear nor the front and it looks perfect. Those cars need a little poke to give that aggressive look. Personally, I would raise the rear 1.5 inches and take some of that negative camber out (doesn't need to be tucked in like that).
