Never date a Far Away Girl (Senner White Z)

these wheels are just hideous. which comes to my next question, what country like wheels that look like these? i have seen these type of color designs in the past. but i cant figure out, what this designs markets for.


Senner Tuning has a new package for the Nissan 370 Z Coupe. The Whitelady, a name harking back to the heritage of Z cars like the Fairlady is already a competent tool but common experience says there's always more competence to squeeze out.

Using the same 3.7-litre V6 Senner has upped power by 15kW (21hp) from the standard 244kW (331hp) to 259kW (352hp). The engineers did this by installing a new Invidia stainless steel exhaust system with improved air flow and larger tailpipes (101mm diameter). More performance is currently being worked on.

Technical changes include a lower suspension system - 50mm up front and 45mm at the rear, adjustable compression damping and an increased track width. The wheels are light alloys measuring 9x20 at the front and 10x20 at the rear. They come in either Racing White or Matt Black Polish. Fitted tyres measure 245/35 R20 and 275/30 R20 respectively.

Senner is currently working on a kit that consists of carbon fibre accessories, a front apron, a rear apron and a rear spoiler.

What is up with the color difference between the bumpers and the body? Did they not finish the car yet? Maybe the wheels are just their "trash winter set"? :shrug:

Why the hell do sports cars get 20 inch rims? That's just completely counter-productive.

Plastic bumpers will always be off from the car body , lighter colors show it off worse. Even on our cars , or a brand new car, to the untrained eye , the paint will look the same, to the trained eyed , the body color and the bumper color will slightly be off. Ever since the industry went from metal to plastic body molded bumpers its always been like that.

White and Silver are the worse colors to get perfect to match .

I thought the colors were off because...

Senner is currently working on a kit that consists of carbon fibre accessories, a front apron, a rear apron and a rear spoiler.
Then I realized it said they are currently working on.

sometimes its the lighting that makes the bumpers look different colours. But in this case...as the orginal op says.
I actually like the first set of rims, but don't like the second set.

Lets not skirt around the idea that they may just have a terrible body guy who is color blind. I'm surprised they would accept body parts that are that far off in color. For a white, it's currently not even close and it looks horrible.
