The Life and Times of Riptide67's 370Z

Riptide67 · 02-07-2014, 05:22 PM

Gave my car a nice look over today and am really beginning to despise the last of the chrome/silver accessories on the exterior.

Although I am not a fan at all of the amount of Plasti dip that gets used, I figured for $6.00 it is an easy remedy for the Nissan hamburgers and Z side markers until my Amuse kit is finished. I'm gonna give it a whirl and see how I like it.

The next minor thing that needed addressed was the vents of my new hood. The mesh supplied is cheap and flimsy. I did some shopping around at Home Depot and found some nice aluminum mesh already painted gloss black. Got a good amount to leave room for error, so I'll cut up several pieces and figure out the best way to attach it to the hood vents.

Spent $9.00 to help achieve some minor cosmetics
