What did you do with your Z today III

EazyD · 05-01-2012, 06:31 PM

Will save us thousands in paint:

Put a mirror against the wall in your garage so you can see how close you are to the front of your Z!

I had to notify the HOA that there is a DRIP in my garage's overhead plumbing that is dripping calcified water on my car leaving those "white" water marks on my paint as it the water dries.. lucky I KEEP it waxed and maintained.
At least they got on it right away and the "leak" will be repaired by Friday. Other than that, still getting those grins on my face as the car performs as nice as the day I drove it off the lot in August of '09!

The splatter from the paintball gun is much easier to clean than actual squirrel blood

( Click to show/hide )

any damage?

I agree with you on unicorn blood

Damn you Canucks able to own R32's legally. One of my all time favorites right there. I would take an R32 over R33 or R34 any day of the week.

Nice side blades as well. I have some sitting my garage waiting to be installed with the rest of my exterior mods that I have not done anything with yet. Mine are FRP not CF thought. Not sure if I want to do matte black, or gloss black yet.

What do you guys & Pintsize girls think flat or gloss for my front splitter, side blades, and rear difuser?

kenchan · 05-01-2012, 10:03 PM

looking good, thegreatone!

JAR- ive had many close calls with squirrels, but not made contact yet.

Yup, we have 15 yr law...so the flood gates open as long as its 15yrs old. Some very nice right hand drive R32's, RX-7's and Supra's

Thanks! Ya mine were sitting there for so long then finally decided to tackle them myself. As for Matte or gloss...I love gloss usually, and my CF is gloss...but Matte might look really good I think!

I'm partial to flat.

kenchan · 05-01-2012, 11:12 PM

yah, as pintsize mentioned, if not CF, then i think matte black finish would look good!

alcheng · 05-01-2012, 11:18 PM

The 15 years law, or I thought it's 10/12 years... let us bring in the right-hand steering wheel as "Vintage" car... the only draw back is when you go through drive-thru and parking machine.....

happytheman · 05-01-2012, 11:22 PM

I think if you're going to go matte...do it all the way. This mix of gloss body and matte mods I've not really cared for too much. Of course, that's just my opinion.
