350Z update (all NURBS)

Finally got my PC back to health, so here's my latest renders. I'm determined to actually finish this project, but there's still a lot of details to do (plus the wheels of course). I used just about every Maya NURBS technique I could find in this project, so if anyone has any questions on what tools I found worked well, and which one's didn't, please ask and maybe I can save someone the from the pitfalls I encountered. (By the way, how do you attach multiple pics in one post on this forum?)

Finished the tires. The renders are just quickies, so they're a little jaggy. Any comments would be greatly appreciated

Very nice! I love to see detail in the geometry of a model, especially working with a medium as often-frustrating as NURBS. 8-)

quick screen capture wire. Rendering nice wire frames in Maya is a pain in the butt.
