Getting car ready for my show on the 13th, took it down to a friends to have the front bumper re-painted. Next week install the louvers and do a detail. Can't believe how the front bumpers on these are literally billboards just asking to get hit with stone chips...

Might consider doing a clear bra on it.

Apparently the serpentine tensioner has a little stud on the back that isn't as strong as my ratchet

I was almost considering doing that but couldn't find a used one that didn't cost an arm and leg. Along with the protectors and other associated stuff...

Default What did you do with your Z today VI (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

Decided to upgrade parking lamps to LED white from that yucky yellow which has smeared throughout the car as you can see..
Night pics later. Wont have differences of the oem parking as it was an easy install. Small hands help. Just have to scootch the tires to one side


Also decided to change the gaskets on my exhaust as I still have OEM ones that were a bit torn up..but only managed to give the underside rear a quick shine.

Well the throttle body fault codes fixed themselves and I found the cause of the codes saying my Z was running lean and I'm ashamed of it.


Also decided to clean both of my MAFs and, for the **** of it, gave it a treatment of gumout multi-system tune-up
