Sorry I don't have a 30 step Zeino system like Kensan. Car did turn out very nice.

lol, good job, Fire!

i dont use sayno (zaino). in fact, i dont really care for their system.

it's too many numbers too many crap to remember. maybe okay 10-20yrs ago, but in 2012 all one should need is one simple system.

motored my G this pm to pickup my kid from school. not a bad drive at all.

looks dry for tomorrow...

but cold...38F wtf??

Good Afternoon Fellows!!! Very very very busy at the store today since 11am and I just managed to have my first meal of the day

Just power read about 8 pages of posts with lots of plastic-dip, rim touch-up and someone's BIG foot!!

Mr.Alchemy,

on the plastic-dip, especially like the front, looks really nice!!

Mr.GaleForce, seems I really have to drop by at your place sometimes to try on those detailing stuffs ..

Z to work today, still have 1 hour to go...

LOL

Yeah I've been thinking about it for a while now. My only problem (and this proves how lazy I am) is that I'm trying to figure out how to put something behind the mirror so I don't have to mask off the whole damn car. I'm thinking cardboard and duct tape.

You are postive 4.5 ft is the correct measurement?? I wouldnt want it to be too big and overlap your door.

EDIT: BTW I still find it odd that a Mustang will be leading a Z caravan. And repping Z's on it none the less

4.5 is a guestimate from when I "measured" this morning. If it overlaps the door I'll just cut the vinyl where I need to, or do it on some crazy angle. My gf says that if I placed the decal on an angle from the bottom of the door all the way up to the 1/4 glass it would look "like how most of those Japanese cars always put their decals on... that's what you want, right?"

My goal is to make it back on the Killboy blog.

What's even funnier is our Caravan of "Zs" is going to include not only the 5.0, but a Maxima and a Fiat 500 Abarth.
