Very nice. You think the car is awesome now? Wait until that exhaust goes on and you can't help but lean into the throttle around 4k and listen to the sweet music it makes!

barncobob, you are killing me here. Damn, you are fast with the mods. I just ordered my two chrome Z emblems. I expect 'em by next week but we are expecting snow by this weekend as well. I will complete my mods in the spring after the Z wakes from her long winter hibernation. Stillen CAI, FI CBE (if I can find something over the 'winter solstice') and maybe some fatter tires all around. Enjoy your Z!

I hope u have better luck than me removing those emblems, I tried wd-40 overnite, then goofoff, heat, and a scribe with a hook to try to remove adhesive,iffy at best..more heat and got the hook end of scribe and it came off slowly, few dings in paint so I ended up using the black pad under Z,, I like it...im going to let the front one be for now...

Too bad you live in Commie Town, USA......TP's would go great with that exhaust.

Damn, that's what I was afraid of. Oh well, I have until April 2016 to think about it. Worse case scenario, I will sell them on CL.

I know the feeling. I've had mine for just over a month, 3k miles and Stillen exhaust + intakes installed, fairladyZ JDM badged, uprev tune coming next.

The feeling when exhaust goes on is always awesome, congrats and FI is a nice setup!
