Yep so it's the same one. Only question is now what color?

Green Ice
Blue Metallic
Gold

How exciting

I have the heat shield brand for the nismo and my other vehicles. Fits perfect and combined with my tints the inside stays cool. I don't drive the nismo much but with the tommy kaira shift knob baking in black car in sun I wanted to keep temps down.

I've had heat shield brand in my accord from new in 2008. After almost 100k miles and sitting outside my dash and interior still look like brand new. And 08 accords were known for issues like leather separation on center console in sun etc.

Best heat shield ever, custom made and fitted to the vehicle. I have one for every car.

My Z will be 5 years old in September. 5 days a week at work it has a Covercraft cover on it while sitting in the SoCal sun. About twice a year I give the interior plastic parts and weatherstripping a good treatment with 303 Aerospace and use Zaino leather treatment on the leather. Other than some wear on the crappy Alacantra armrest and minor wrinkling on the left side of the driver's seat leather, the interior looks like new.
Keeping it out of the sun and using a good product like 303 Aerospace makes a lot of difference.
