Nice to see something more than just white with black everything (my first 2nd gen). Neat build start! What direction are you going for mechanical upgrades?

Like the stipes, but could do without the NISMO logo.

that's far from a "Z71". lolI was gonna go with "Z71 OFF ROAD", but something didn't look right!
The "PILAT" logo on the tailgate needs to go as well, unless you are receiving a commission for advertising for them!

I would just wait till you wear out your current tires, then replace them with AT's.
This is exactly what I am planning to do.

Sorry, Greg, but I did all that. I bought the wheels, striped them myself and ceramic coated them. Then I got the nerf bars, striped them myself, ceramic coated them and installed them. Then I went to see Dan, my buddy, who owns Pilat design. I told him what I wanted, based around a version of the Nismo graphic He took a picture of the profile of my truck and over a period of a couple weeks sent me several images of what he could do with my ideas. We finally sat down at his design computer and laid out the whole job the way I wanted. He printed me a picture of my truck exactly the way it looks now. I said, 'let's do this!' I also had him make a custom red and black copy of my gang's sticker and asked him to put his logo on the tailgate with it.
When you walk in his shop he has a big display board with pictures of his work. The picture on the top is of my Mx5 roadster that he did in black and gold. It's one of 5 cars he's done for me in recent years. At this point I guess I should mention that the whole job cost me $280 cash. I can almost guarantee that at some point my truck will get him some jobs.

Looks nice, I like the graphics but also agree with others on the "nismo" part, kind of reminds me when people used "SS" emblems on "Z28" on 4th gen f-bodies when they installed an aftermarket super sport hood, or in Firebirds too, a "Ram Air" hood with "WS6" badges. But it is a nice-looking set of graphics, nonetheless.
I like the side/hood graphics. It looks similar to what was available on the Juke Nismo. The rear is a little too busy. It would look cleaner if the rear was debadged. Overall
