Looking good man. I have a silver Z myself and I cant decide whether I want to tint my tail lights or not. Now looking at your car I realize the silver and black looks great together. Have you thought of tinting your tail lights at all? I think it would look great.

Do you have a silver hood hanging on your garage wall? Looks great. I'm jealious that you could get your kid to do something. And I'm jealious of the hood too

Yea, the stock hood is in the seibon box to avoid any damage, Yea my kid's a gear head in training, and helps when i'm working on any of our cars. :tiphat:

Thanks Br0 :tiphat:
I think cause of the early productions when they had limited control due to out sourcing?
Its now done in house from what I understand so they have better quality control. :)

If only you would teach my parents those virtues. This was a rather unexpected upgrade but it looks great! I am interested in how it looks in person, should be very nice with the vents.

Yes, looks very good in person as you'll see if you make it out to the food and meet in irvine? :tiphat:
Thanks Chris

Fitment is nice! Did you reuse the rubber seals, rubber bump stoppers and what about the latch spring?

Also, how does it look like near the pillars?

Didn't re-use the rubber seals since this doesn't have the pre holes for them, but it can be fitted in with a little work, and the rubber stoppers were not installed since the hood would not close with them on. All three latches close fine, and there is no rattle while closed.
