At NTB getting new-to-me rear tires mounted and balanced. I've got their 5 year alignment deal, so that will happen, too.

So, being that I am out of the country right now, my mom took the Z to the dealership to get it serviced.

So, if you're driving around the Clarksville area and see a GM Z driving 20 MPH under the speed limit, that's my car. (She is terrified of it. )

I asked about covering the front bumper, fenders, and hood. I got a quote of about $1200 from PDIClearbra & tint here in Kansas City. They offer lifetime warranty on their stuff. I'm going to have mine done after I change the front bumper, no sense doing it twice.

Hmmmm, hope they gave you a discount on that battery. It has a ship/build date that's almost 8 months old... Now I know Ultimas are AGM batteries, but still....

Well yea that's Kansas City! Out here in California the economy is way different. We starve on $25/hr pay!

LOL, I know, paying top $$$$ for a house that your neighbor is spitting distance away... getting taxed to death, the every year/every other year smog checks... I spent several years in SoCal, so I feel your pain...

Won't be doing much with the Z. It has been put away for the winter. If we have some real nice December weather, I might get it out and take it for a drive. But only if it is above 40 and the city hasn't put their usual ten tons of sand and salt on the roads.

Removed the front license plate and filled the holes. No more front license plate. Much cleaner look.

Yesterday I ordered the OEM Nismo side skirts to start my conversion (just the front and sides), also ordered all the brackets for the Nismo front bumper, lastly ordered a VIS AMS carbon fiber hood for it. Going with this one.



Hoping to hear back from Dirty on shipping for the Nismo front bumper and diffuser then the fun can begin!!!!

It was a busy day.
