Joepro's Journal
Hello to all!
Joepro's Z: 2010 Base/Sport Pearl White Location: Western,Pa :shakes head: Bought my 370z second week of Sept '12, upgrading from my 350z. My feeling on the 370z vs 350z, well, wow, totally different animal...the 350z was a rattle box, and a bit rough all around, the 370 is much more refined. I do almost all mods myself, I work at a Honda garage(although I am a recent MBA grad seeking other employment) I have access to lifts and tools.

Please dont do black/white like everyone else....get polished dished wheels or something and dont try to color match everything. Specially not your headlights or something like that... why not leave emblems in chrome? they look good!!!
Looking good so far! |
