How did the install go? I'm dropping my car off at D&V on Monday night to get the door handles painted. Kinda stoked.

Install went great, I pulled the panels off a day before the kick plates came in, so as soon I got them from UPS today, I threw them in, it was a good install, no hiccups. I wanna see them at night though.

Its a nice addition to the Z.

The DIY was helped a lot!

Bro, you wanna come over and help me throw in my exhaust? I got the pizza and beer, it'll only take a couple hours. Let me know, send me a PM.

Its an exhaust, it took me and kirk TOGETHER to do it the first time! hmmm, which means, it would take me and SOMEONE ELSE to do it again...

ugh stop bickering.

I'm booked this weekend and have zero experience installing exhausts but hey, I can attempt to help if you're doing it later on.

brother, its simple... all you'd be doing is holding it here and there while im unscrewing/ screwing bolts. AND it'd be a good opportunity for you to learn how to install an aftermarket exhaust if you ever plan to upgrade.

I know, I've done the exhaust install on my Z with Steve. Now that I know what I'm doing, I'm pretty confident I could do it on my own. Sure it would be a lot quicker and easier with 2 people, but not something that's impossible to do on your own.

Im not trying to struggle doing it my self... no thanks.. another person helping is definitely necessary.

Nice.. yeah dude, if you wanna give me a hand that'd be soo awesome. PM me your number.

Red is neat:

Those LED pods are really bright and when you unlock the car, it looks really cool.

The downside is that red license plate lights are 100% illegal and will result in a moving violation if you get pulled over that = 2 points on your license. I'm gonna keep them for shows though like P&S at Carlisle next year.
