I gotta agree with all of u guys, this actually doesn't look that bad. Now if only he could get rid of the GS300 wording there and it would be perfect IMO.

I guess if you try to analyze the thought process that this guy went through it does not seem so absurd after a while.
Consider this, I really like the turn signal indicators in the 04 MB E-class and would like to custom mod my mirrors to do that some day. I can just see some MB owner taking a pic of my car and saying I am a MB-wannabe. Same reaction some of us would have seeing this 300ZX. However in doing the turn signal mod I am definitely not trying to convert my car to an MB, I just love the signals in the mirror and I can justify it in a number of ways:
1. Safety and functionality - our stock turn signals are very small and not visible enough
2. "Cool" mod
I am sure I could come up with others given some more time, but when I look at this 300ZX, I said to myself, what was the functional usefulness of this mod? I don't see it, so to me he appears to be a 1st gen GS wannabe...........
Is it just me or does anyone else feel the same way?

I don't really like it - but I agree that it's not that bad, all things considered.

My guess is that this guy isn't pouring his savings into the car - he just sorta added the rear on a whim (based on the fact that he didn't clear the GS markings, stupid stainless gas cap - can we say Eclipse?, and the paint looks terrible). Additions on a whim + limited budget = fitment issues.
