Honestly, I'm a little sad about it but I've kind of realized in the last couple of months that my goals for the Z are more extravagant than my budget. I'd rather be saving money right now than modding a car and I don't think I can have it without modding it.

With all that said, I wanted to give you guys dibs on any of the parts you might want before I put them up on sale officially. Everything is still on the car at this point but it'll all be coming off next week.

Here's what I've got:

Fast Intentions CBE (gen 1) $800 picked up
Some minor scratches on the cans but nothing you can see unless you get under the car.

Work Emotion CR Ultimate 19x9.5 +15/19x10.5 +12 $2000 obo
These are in flawless condition and only have a few hundred miles on them. They come with the center caps too.

Swift Springs $250 picked up
Less than 1000 miles on these

SPL rear camber kit - no toe bolts $100 picked up

Zenclosure for 1 10" sub and Boston Acoustics sub $130 picked up
Small blemish from shipping in one of the corners

Maybe more stuff later once I get it out of the car. Let me know if you're interested.
Really interested in the wheels.. when will these be available? I am in the Prairieville area. Also interested in the springs.. How much do they lower the car?

The wheels come off tomorrow so any time after that we could hook up if you want.

The springs are good for a little over an inch drop. It's not super low. It's really just enough to close some of the fender gap. Here's a pic of the wheels and springs installed so you can see how it looks.

Swift springs lower the car 1" up front and 1.2" out back, or somewhere right in there.

Anyone know a good body shop that can fill in the spot where the front Nissan emblem goes when removed?

I dont know a shop that would be able to do that, but there are a few way you can do a self fix on that im sure. i could prolly help you out. when you take the emblem off, is the space left open a few holes where the emblem was attached or is it one big gapping hole?

I think it's just recessed into the bumper, no holes the rear has the holes I believe. I've heard good things about rapid patch, speed grip, and polyurethane fillers, I don't know what would be best. The idea is to fill that in and wrap the car in vinyl. Not sure if it's the best idea but that's what I'm thinking. Hahaha

Polyurethane would prolly work pretty well. depending on what kind it is effects how the vinyl would adhere to it. though, you could always ignore that spot. just some ideas.

Would you know what could work for this? Filling in the space and playing nice with the vinyl. I'm thinking 3m vinyl, not sure if it makes a difference or not.

3M would prolly be your best bet hands down. good idea to by a small strip from your local hardware store. home depot in houma has some. hell, hobby lobby might even. anyway, and get the polyurethane you thinking about using, and just test a small strip. check it after 24hours. heat it, wash it, drown it, throw it at the side walk.

if its still on, you good.
