The 79 Z has always been a favorite of mine, came very close to buying a brand new one back in the day.

As far as "Ideas": I always thought it would be cool to reverse the fender vents from drivers to passengers so the angle of the vents would mimic the headlight, windshield, and rear spoiler angles. From a design point of view I have no idea why it's backward. To me it doesn't flow well visually. Stock = / \ / / Flipping the vents = / / / /.

I've never seen it done and challenge someone to try it. I looked at the ones on my stepsons 79 when we swapped a fiberglass nose onto it and athough it requires some cutting and welding it shouldn't be too hard.
