Definitely. I priced out a couple different companies, secondskin, GTMat, Dynamat, Hushmat... All were $180-250 for just the material..

I ended up doing the hatch & doors for $35 and I now have the experience to do the rest of the car if I feel the need.

Again, I don't know how it compares to dynamat or top quality brand. But the 370z is loud to begin with, and when I added the Peel & Seal, I no longer heard small rocks hitting the rear fenders. The doors have a little more thud to them now..

Goodluck!

Received my final invoice on the ForgeStar wheels. PAID IN FULL and awaiting shipping! AND BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE!

Just picked up a pair of these from ZCF covers to accent the new hood

Fancy. There is a set of cf rear spats f/s right now

Riptide67 · 11-14-2013, 07:57 PM

If I weren't replacing the whole rear with an amuse Cf rep, I'd scoop them up. They are shine reps and at a fair price. Another non-shipper though lol.

Yummy ^^

Snapped a few quick photos today since the weather is much nicer. Forgive the filthiness...it's been rainy in the PNW :/

Riptide67 · 11-19-2013, 05:10 PM

Last one until I can get a proper shoot done!

Received the CF B Pillar covers from ZCFCOVERS today. Great looking product that certainly didn't disappoint me. Gonna heat them up and install tomorrow.

Love the color of the new wheels and the concavity rocks!

Keep up the good work

Riptide67 · 11-21-2013, 02:10 PM

Thanks, Marti! I am in love with the wheels and get crazy compliments each day!

Riptide67 · 11-21-2013, 02:14 PM

I had a little bit of time to install these today
