Just installed these this past week. Had them on my 350 also. This is a great mod to have IMO. None of that hood prop crap.

SPOHN if you used that threaded hole I told you about you wouldn't need those front silver brackets.
And where are the plastic covers?

SPOHN · 04-22-2011, 08:45 PM

I looked where you said, there where holes but they weren't threaded. I guess I could still go back and thread them. I'm doing away with the covers. This car is eventually going to be stripped down. Do you have a pic I could see? The hole I see is also bigger than the little ball and stud I have that came extra with the kit.

Here's another vid of my exhaust on the dyno being wounded out. This is with GTM TP's and Greddy TI-C exhaust with silencers removed.

Baer383 · 04-22-2011, 09:12 PM

Here is 2 pic's I was wrong they are not threaded just a hole I put the ball thru it and put a washer and nut from underneath the strut tower.As you can see I drilled the holes for the same bracket you have but didn't use them.

SPOHN · 04-22-2011, 09:22 PM

Ok. Yea, that hole is not threaded per say. But The stud I have might thread itself in there. I'll have to see Sunday for it's at my dads house at the moment. I hope this works. Thanks for taking your time to do this. Repped.

Which one to you guys like the best? 1...2....3

christian370z · 04-25-2011, 07:11 PM

3 gets my vote! I like it because the shape of the Z is most clearly defined.

Mr&Mrs · 04-25-2011, 08:03 PM

I have alot of my pics in the same form as #3 so, ya 3 =)

SPOHN · 04-25-2011, 08:17 PM

It does show the lines alot better.

nismodreamr · 04-26-2011, 10:30 AM

gorgeous car! awesome work.

ClemsonWill · 04-26-2011, 11:43 AM

I like the 1st one. The 3rd one has too many distracting squiggles.

SE · 05-09-2011, 07:41 PM

Looking great!

SPOHN · 05-09-2011, 07:48 PM

Thanks. I'm currently trying to stock up on brake rotors and pads for the track. I like keeping the basic in stock. I'll probably let this baby loose in a couple.
