Oh I'm sure he has looked plenty...on FB. That's a whole different arena

I joined the FB 370z group to see what the fuzz was all about. I couldn't stand the tidal waves of useless posts and left the group after a few months.

That doesn't even count. FB has never been a source of reliable information.

Wash and clean out my car only to be covered in Pollen in less than 24hrs. Ugg.

Sucks man

Although I'd just roll up the windows if you're getting pollen inside the car

I live in Ga. We don't leave the windows down, period. Fastest way to get a rained in car. Saw many folks running from the dorm to there car in the Air Force to roll up their windows. LOL, they were from up north. I am sure it is the same in Florida.

I've been tooling around in GranTurismo 7 quite a bit and I'm tempted to go back to the original OEM bumper with a lip. I want that perfect JDM panel gap again. There's only one bumper I want, but it doesn't exist: N-ONE Racing has the SUNDOME bumper for the 350Z and it looks absolutely perfect. Long nose, efficient design.

Just came across tajimarr Instagram account a few days ago. That 350z is running that bumper and damn it is perfection. The bare carbon looks so good too.

I just came across that one on Instagram. That is indeed a good looking front bumper. It's like the Z34 V1 Nismo, but flows better and somehow does NOT look like cat fish. I wish for that on my car.

Just picked up the OEM black housing headlamps for my Z. I'll be installing them this weekend. Gonna sell the stock ones. I'll be doing my differential service as well.

Oh yeahhhh...going into work late was worth it. Fresh off the delivery truck!

Box was pretty beat up, so I was worried. Luckily, hood was undamaged. Time for PPF and ceramic coating

I enjoy it a ton. The physics have improved significantly. The cars are more sensitive to track surface changes and there’s a real difference between using the racing line and taking the rain line in the wet. So far I only have minor complaints which I think they will fix. They’re mostly menu related.

Good luck.. mine has this horrid gap on the passenger side that they said was "within their tolerances" and they wouldn't refund

BettyZ · 03-10-2022, 07:34 PM

Wavetrac going in. CJM twin pump kit with canister, 12 gauge wiring, Hobbs switch, and secondhand F.I. fuel return kit went in last week. ATI super damper and yellowstuff pads next.

I'm sorry to hear that. I know every batch is a little different due to the molds and that it is rarely a perfect fit. I think that's part of the risk you take with these aftermarket carbon fiber hoods and being OK with the fitment. Fortunately for me, after playing with the hinges, bolts, and positioning, it fits pretty damn good. I'm very happy with it, I'm just hesitant on putting holes in it to use the hood pins I bought. I reused the factory hood hooks and everything seems to work just fine, but I've seen those videos where the hoods fly off the car SMH. Also, the instructions say to get it cleared again. I'm hoping applying PPF and ceramic coating will work in place of that, or even be better. Let me know if anyone has thoughts on this, please.
I'll post some pics tomorrow.
Did you try playing with the fitment?
