Baer - after my drop on Tanabe springs and the new Nismo nose, I'm scraping really bad entering/exiting my drive. Part of the problem is related to some damage to the edge of the street when the developer poured the driveway.

I live in a four unit townhouse, and found out at Christmas that two of the other owners are scraping their cars (SL and IS350). Everyone else drives SUVs.

Anyway, one of the neighbors is a contractor and came up with the idea of having an iron driveway grate built. We're basically building a shallow bridge to span the drop between the street and driveway.

We don't have a price yet, but my neigbor swears it will be less than $500 in total. He's getting quotes from fabricators that build entrance gates. We laid out the design this afternoon.

Might be worth checking into. Good luck.

First day back home or with Internet Since 12/22/11. I sent 7 days in Puerto Vallarta, and then spent 3 days including NYE in Vegas. The stay in Vegas was pretty much free as a really good budy of mine lives on the Strip in City Center. I took the Z out to grab lunch and also a second time to run some errands. I installed the Simota fuel guage overlay and decided that I did not like the look overall so I took it off. Then to top off my Z day I purchased a 40th car cover since my used 40th did not come with one.

Edit: New top off to my Z day...bought a set of 40th floor mats since mine came with normal ones rather than the 40th mats. I will keep using the normal Z mats as I like them better but wanted a set of 4th's to have in case of sale or perhaps put in on occassion.

Man Srenity, you're all over the ice...buying stuff, and then not using it! Thats Baller status right there folks!

Baer- since you paint cars for a living (you like my idol. ) do you want to paint some J-Next front fender trim for your car? hahaha, i bought a set a few months ago but decided not to use them since i am abandoning my plan to run more aggressive wheels up front. Weds is offering 19x9.5 ET24 and at stock height i would need these.

while i test fitted and pulled-off, one of the trim's clear cracked. they used some pretty brittle paint cauce when i paint these things at home i use flex agent and does not crack.

let me know. (i paid a chunk of change i think $350 shipped, but will let go for cheap... other than the crack it's in new condition never used).

it's the little trim on the front fender. it's currently painted brilliant silver.

First workday of the year greetings.

she's a systems engineer/programmer. before we had kids it was not unusual for me to drive down to get her donuts and coffee at 2am to check up on her since she'd be the only one in the large buildings at her client's place. she does a lot of the stuff remotely now from home.

man i remember those days i had so much time to play with my cars. hahaha.

btw, nice picts you posted!
