I like anything with a nice big concave

Those look like royalty..

JWillis72 · 01-17-2014, 06:16 PM

I think they would look great on the car.

Meulen · 01-17-2014, 06:23 PM

My spray can from automotive touch-up came in the mail yesterday. Since I had some time, I went right ahead into taking my bumper off and pulling apart the headlights. It got a lot easier to pull apart these 370z headlights for me. Also texted a friend of mine right away cause his lights needed a blackout. Anyways, here are some progress pics and results.

thats the plan. Those wheels would look good especially with a drop.

Thanks Huck I saw that thread but after totalling my 350z, my back wouldnt be able to handle a set of coils like that. From what I hear, swifts are a nice drop as well as comfortable so that my back wouldnt hurt on a long day. Here, this pic will explain it all..

I wasn't happy with the swift drop. The ride was superb, but i notice little difference now with my BC coils. Just soften the dampening. I have them set at 15 clicks, so right in the middle.

Had a lot of fun with some Z owners this past weekend. Unfortunately.....(

)... A ladder fell out of the bed of a truck on the highway and I had to be the one to drive over it like a speed bump. I had no time, or room, to swerve out of the lane to avoid it without causing more damage. I pulled over to the side of the road only to see the truck driver pick up his completely demolished ladder and drive away. I was underneath my car at the time to check if I broke the oil pan or if anything was leaking. The car stalled, just cause it was a scary moment for me, so I couldnt just drive off after him... The front of my lip cracked in two spots, the bottom is scraped up and the section of the lip that connects it to the passenger side wheel well is almost cracked off.

I don't have any pics atm cause it is too late for my sick self to get out of bed and take any but I will post up tomorrow morning.

So I was thinking if I should just hold on to my lip til it comes apart or start looking into another one but still deciding whether or not to look into a new one or just get the same one.. Also, is it worth selling this one? Maybe someone can just bondo it back up and have it painted? (I can post pics tomorrow to show you guys)

Huck · 01-28-2014, 12:59 PM

Oh dude, that sucks...

Depending on how it looks I'd say leave it on there if it doesn't look to bad from the front. As long as its not gonna snap off when you're driving and get stuck under the car, rock it for a bit then replace it later on.
