Ok so I'm sitting here fuming about not doing anything with the Z this weekend. Taking suggestions as to whether I start installing some GT Mat in the rear hatch or taking off the bumper to measure some lathe for a custom grill behind the fangs. I think I know Ms. Pint's vote Anyone else?

Should have come out with me today. GT all the way! But I am interested in the grill semi delete mod though.

I would have been working on the car if I had the time

At this point I haven't committed to actually cutting out the horizontal plastic pieces. I saw someone that did the installed behind them and it looked ok, but I think it's too subtle for my tastes. I want to remove them, but I don't like the idea of having to physically cut out part of the vehicle. TBD

I am going to finish the lathe with Dupli Color Shadow and see if I can get a decent black chrome finish. Also, I have plenty of extra lathe. I plan to cut out and finish two pieces in the black chrome, using less than half the total. I don't have any other plans for it, so you're more than welcome to some if you like the finished product

That awesome. I do newage stuff (more like sound track type music), but currently just me and electric piano. Very simple.

I vote sound deadening the trunk floor. do you have a roller handy? If not, I recommend getting a decent one.

JARblue

So... that just means you're used to not doing anything with it. A weekend without working on or motoring the Z is no big deal to you. It's a different story for us DD fiends/addicts

Ask Ms. Pint if the roller is decent She gave me a couple of 10 sq ft samples, each of which came with a small roller with which other people seem to have had minimal troubles I may run out of alcohol for cleaning though... other than drinkable forms, it appears to currently be in scarce quantity in our house. Can I just use something like Krud Kutter Degreaser?
