Car is looking great Schrute, but remember:
Bears beat Battlestar Galactica.

...what is going on? What are you doing? Well, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, so I thank you.

Hey Schrute....Is the landing strip LEDs visible at night when the headlights are on? Your one photo suggests not.

schrute · 05-16-2010, 04:44 PM

Yeah they are. That really is an awful pic (cell phone). I'll get a better one at night with the good camera.

^true, amazon is overpriced on those. ebay has them for $150.

Did you ever take a Db reading from inside the cabin after installing the product you used ?

Hey Schrute great looking car. I just have one question. How were you able to get the Garmin mounting disk to stick to your dash? I can't seem to make it work! I must be a dumb*** but I am stuck. Any help is appreciated!

darbyt · 05-19-2010, 11:42 PM

Nevermind! Put my brain into overdrive and figured it out! Thanks anyway!

Not yet but I'm going to work on installing the second skin product again tonight. I've only had a couple hours here and there to do it lately. I'll have an update soon..

Glad you got it figured out!

Update on the Db readings?

I haven't read your whole journal yet. But your car looks awesome. I'm working on tinting my rear tail lights at the moment using Lamin-x film. Not working out soo good. [searching thread for your tail light tint]

KingZee · 05-29-2010, 09:23 PM

Schrute, I commend you on your journal and direction you provide. I just read through the whole thing and got a lot of knowledge out of it.

Looking forward to seeing how the Second Skin products work out.

schrute · 05-30-2010, 02:31 AM

Thanks guys. I had some personal stuff come up lately and the Z had to take a back seat to some other stuff. I really want to get the second skin product finished soon, having all the plastic out of the back makes it really loud. Can't wait to get it done and I hope to finish up soon. Right now I'm in the middle of a move so it might be a week or two.
