Wish I could be around this weekend to wash the Z...

I want to buy another new shift knob...

So apparently, color-matched splash guards are a standard option in Australia (but not in the US :ugh:). So I found a dealer than has imported some and still has a few sets of two colors in stock; thankfully, one of the colors happens to be Orchid White. They will not be restocking because the 2016s have changed body style enough to use a different splash guard.

Should I pay $252 for them? Kind of hard to justify that price since I'm tempted to buy the black plastic ones from the dealer here and some OEM spray paint from automotivetouchup.com and try to paint them myself (probably cost $80 for the spats + $20 for the paint). But my painting job is almost guaranteed to look like garbage compared to the factory painted ones.

You could try reaching out to Aaron (morbid370z)? He is pretty OCD about details and handled the plastidip rattle can job for my lip pretty well.

So you're saying the paint job I did on your lip was shitty? :icon08: It probably was :icon17:

I can actually get a decent finish with rattle cans now. But not a professional finish by any means. I'm really leaning towards the factory painted ones or none at all.

Running a few errands this am... this PM motoring my RC cars. :p

It would bother me if I painted a piece and it looked a lot worse than the factory finish.

Rattle cans work if the pressure inside is high. :D

Won't work if wrong color.. :ugh:

I recommend painting next to neighbor you don't like's house. :tup:

The phrase "how much worse" is the key. I can handle it not looking as good if I didn't pay for it. But it can't look like it was done by an amateur. I think I'm beyond that point, but I'm not sure I'm willing to risk it.

Thankfully, I have plenty of practice shaking my arms quickly like that ;)
