Most likely. But there's more work to be done, and they will cover 100% of the difference. There's one undershroud part he couldn't find, and I now that I look closer I don't see a line item for the cat. The final check was actually made out for $3100. It was less than I quoted earlier because of the $500 deductible that was applied. But I'm sure they'll end up writing another check in the end.

I'll be getting multiple quotes for the work, just to verify the pricing. And I have to get quotes for the new aftermarket items if they exceed the value of the OEM part like my Fast Intentions exhaust.

He was extremely polite and accommodating. I asked him about the chipped engine cradle, and he responded as though it would be ludicrous for him to suggest that it not be covered :tup:

2016 Nismo front and rear bumpers on a Base?

I'm kinda digging these bumpers, and in MB the bit-over-the-top styling is more subdued. None of the red stripes though.

CZP is actually pretty darn reasonable for the OEM pieces. Don't think I'd do it right now, but putting together my winter projects list and collecting parts.

Also strongly considering Stillen supercharger. AAM TT was what I'd originally thought but thinking SC may be the better way to go for me, with a smaller pulley to correct for my 3800' altitude - and up for the mountain twisties :)

These garage days playing on the Internet can get expensive lol

Stillen SC + Topgunz A2A conversion kit :twocents:

Of course, that's only if you don't get Fast Intentions' TT kit :driving:

just had the subway 6" chicken rotisserie chicken (double the chicken) with lettuce, green peppers, a little bit of onions, and a little bit of the southwest chipotle sauce.

definitely hit the spot. 62g of protein and under 500 calories :D

The base plan is actually up to $1500 per aftermarket part without any additional coverage. The exhaust invoice I just paid was $1559 shipped :D

I'll probably be increasing the aftermarket coverage as I add/replace parts.

Some tiny "swirls" left after using DA machine and polish. Time to bust out the real paint polishing machine for the finish work, the mighty Metabo rotary. :tup:

Just saw an identical Z to mine. It was for sale about 3 hrs from here for a while. I remember seeing it online haha. Dealership wanted 24k for an absolute base model 2009 with 51k miles on it.

The kicker. The front right headlight has condensation in it.
