My Z store Parts arrived today and I got everything from the order installed. Carbon fang cover and upper trim, carbon fiber B pillars, Black nismo shift knob and GTR start button. I'm very happy with the way the pieces fit.

My stock shift knob is now in pieces from from trying to take it off by myself with insufficient tools, but I got everything installed properly without damage to the boot or transmission so....... O WELL. As for the fang cover and upper trim piece the install is pretty straight forward, but I did add a little extra 3M tape to the fang cover. The B Pillars are extra flimsy, like paper thin (exaggeration) and fit very snug over the stock ones with very thin tape along all edges and in the center.

I used a microfiber cloth when applying pressure on the B pillars for install, as you have to be very careful about cracking them. All I took today were some photos on my iPhone but I'll be taking it out for a proper shoot to show off the new additions soon. The GTR start button is AMAZING!!

When installing the GTR ignition button I got a little nervous, this was done earlier in the day before installing the shift knob. I got the shift boot up with no problems but then went after the wrong screws to take the kneepads off. I soon figured out which ones were the correct screws and the kneepads just pop off with some light tugging at different areas because there are still little metal snap clips holding them in place.

After I got the kneepads off it's just 2 screws (one on each side) to get the faceplate thing off but I couldn't get it to come forward as much as the photos in the DIY page so I had a harder time unplugging the stock button from the back cause of limited space. all in all everything was fairly easy to install and I'm way happier with the look and feel already. More pictures to come soon.

Just after install. Shot using Pro HDR app on iPhone


limited lighting but it's the best angle so far
