And here I am defrosting my windows....

.... Get tints if you don't already, and if your car is out in that kind of heat, definitely get a sun reflector on the windshield.

What % of tint you all recommend, cause I always get 5% or 3%. But with all the blind spots on the Z what would you recommend for rear window tint from your experiences

I'm registered in Cali for right now but also, if I switch to Texas plates what tint you all recommend for the driver/passenger door windows as well

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.

Don't forget the cigar and cheezy mustache. Then you need a girl in the right seat that is running from a wedding.....
