We can tell the Z is pulled into the garage JUST far enough when the auto lights come on in the daytime

my wife bitched like crazy when I left a mirror facing the car pulling in (it reflected the headlights in a seriously blinding manner)

I agree with you on unicorn blood

No damage - just some splatter which I made sure to wash off as soon as I got home.

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

I usually encounter them in the backyard (or maybe its more accurate to say THEY encounter the paintballs that spew from my neighbor's and my yard). Other than a bird I hit with my Explorer driving 70 mph down 290 West, I have to say I've been pretty lucky when it comes to that - especially when I start to consider that I've put 100K miles on my previous four vehicles driving around Texas the past 15 years.

Tint is probably the next thing though since the previous owner slacked on it.

About the drop, it really depends on if the Z is your DD or not, I will not suggest it if it is your DD. PW is really nice, eh?? LOL

This is why I started leaning towards gloss myself. I actually like the matte finish better in general but on 40th it almost hides and does not offer the contrast you need to look good. I think gloss would be more noticeable on 40th.

and I believe you keep your Z very shiny too

A matte finished splitter will make it looks like an old/worn part. Go with the glossy, unless you have an opt for CF finish.

Good morning Z crew, and the OFC! I gotta say, whatever maintenance that takes place @ 7:30am EST really screws with me, cuz I'm starting my day and trying to post/read updates while guzzling coffee!

Have a great one all!

TheGreatOne · 05-02-2012, 08:19 AM

Morning all!

I wish I drank coffee...I'm having a green tea

Looked out the window, there is fog...so a real reason to turn my fog light on this morning lol.

Have a good one people!

Cut and paste fail -- I just repped Mr. Happy and JAR with Tracie's name only. OOPS.

I type all of my rep individually to give it a personal touch. Sounds like this Michelin gig has gone to your head, onz.
