How do they sound with just those mods? and can you feel any difference in performance?

if the 4" scratch is polishable i would consult a PDR tech to rid the crease. i dont trust color matching too much as you can tell.

GL!

It's probably polishable. Dent isn't as bad as I thought that first night. Do I bring it to Nissan dealership, bring it to my insurance company estimate place, or find someone in the yellow pages?

Thanks, I'll check again, as my initial search was not productive. I do like that blackout look!

I might do my fangs with plasti dip. Have to descide what all to do. Have two cans so think I can do alot.

370ZilverZ · 01-15-2012, 04:56 PM

I like the flat look the best. IMO looking at pictures, the plasti dip looks a bit satin. From reading the DIY threads, I think I will mask, sand and paint with the flatest black I can find. Undecided on the rear, but fangs for sure!

Point taken on the tone of the black, but Plasti-Dip is probably the best thing to paint such a low, chip-prone area.

Just did a quick ONR wash on the Z, hopefully it won't rain but it looks like it might. I might take a drive through the canyons tomorrow depending on the weather today, can't wait to give my RE-11s a nice workout.
