I'm not unhappy.....I love the look of it....I just wish it had fit a little better. And I'll admit, I'm not 100% sure if its a design flaw or if the place I went to have it installed did it incorrectly.

I have a body shop who has seen this and "hopes" they can adjust the fit. They are making no promises but they did say they would try. Unfortunately I won't be able to drop the car off for this fix for a few more weeks but I will update with new photos if adjustments are made.

i wonder if evo-r's mold is going bad? tony, you got this pretty recently, no? they must've run quite a few off of the mold already, i would not be surprised if it started warping or something.

I purchased from one of the other users on this board....once it arrived it sat for about 3 to 4 weeks since I figured I'd go ahead and purchase the front CF parts, too. I've had a few people look at it....I've heard it could be the mold wasn't right and today I was told maybe the rear bumper can be worked on to force the piece to slip into the grooves. That one kinda worries me but we'll see how it goes over the next couple of weeks.

Picked up the Z this morning from D&V Autobody.....they put clear bra over my front carbon fiber pieces, removed the swirls marks from my hood, did a nice full detailing, and installed the Cube mood lighting kit! Can't really show the lighting kit just yet, still too bright outside. Looking forward this evening, tho! Here are a few pictures....2nd photo shows the swirl free roof!

What were the downsides of doing a clearbra? Does it turn yellow over time or something?
Also, I can't remember, do you have your entire front end clearbra'd?? Cost?? |

I haven't heard any downsides yet from anyone on the board. Over time, yes, I suppose it is possible it could discolor. Most places have a 5 year warranty. I could be wrong about that so if anyone needs to correct me please do.

Here are a couple photos of quite possibly the only Nissan Cube interior mood lighting kit installed in a 370Z. D&V Autobody installed it with the help of Chantilly Nissan this past Friday. The kit has a total of 20 different mood colors but I think we know what color I'll be keeping it on.
