Yeah they are. That really is an awful pic (cell phone). I'll get a better one at night with the good camera.

^true, amazon is overpriced on those. ebay has them for $150.

Did you ever take a Db reading from inside the cabin after installing the product you used ?

darbyt · 05-19-2010, 02:01 PM

Hey Schrute great looking car. I just have one question. How were you able to get the Garmin mounting disk to stick to your dash? I can't seem to make it work! I must be a dumb*** but I am stuck. Any help is appreciated!

darbyt · 05-19-2010, 10:42 PM

Nevermind! Put my brain into overdrive and figured it out! Thanks anyway!

Not yet but I'm going to work on installing the second skin product again tonight. I've only had a couple hours here and there to do it lately. I'll have an update soon..

Glad you got it figured out!

Update on the Db readings?

I haven't read your whole journal yet. But your car looks awesome. I'm working on tinting my rear tail lights at the moment using Lamin-x film. Not working out soo good. [searching thread for your tail light tint]

KingZee · 05-29-2010, 08:23 PM

Schrute, I commend you on your journal and direction you provide. I just read through the whole thing and got a lot of knowledge out of it.

Looking forward to seeing how the Second Skin products work out.

schrute · 05-30-2010, 01:31 AM

Thanks guys. I had some personal stuff come up lately and the Z had to take a back seat to some other stuff. I really want to get the second skin product finished soon, having all the plastic out of the back makes it really loud. Can't wait to get it done and I hope to finish up soon. Right now I'm in the middle of a move so it might be a week or two.

Hey guys,

Haven't been on here for a while. On Memorial Day I was fishing with a couple friends and we had a boating accident and my good friend Tyler drowned. He's in a couple pics on this thread helping me work on my car. I miss my buddy every day and posting on internet forums took a back seat to a bunch of other stuff for a while.

I've been through some other life changes over the past few months but through it all I still have my Z and still enjoy driving it. I'm looking forward to spring when I can pick up where I left off.

I'm usually not one to preach but in memory of my friend I'll just share a couple of the lessons I've learned through all of this. Wear life jackets when you're boating, and be careful mixing alcohol and activities on the water. Live life to the fullest every day and let your family and friends know how you feel about them often.

Jeff

These warnings come up a lot on radio stations here in Southern California. In fact, there is a law in California where the owner of the boat is responsible for such incidents like your friend.

Sorry to hear Jeff. Hope you and his family are coping well.
