Default Legacy lives on... 300ZX to 370Z

Hello folks! I introduced myself back in this thread. The 300ZX was my dream car since high school- Finally acquired my very own after college. It was a beauty.

Well, I sold it to a friend because I got married and moved to NY. After 4 years, I'm back and I'm HUNGRY! Haha... Well long story short, needed another car and might as well be a (Pearl) white 370Z.

Finally gotten around to the pics.

Tint done at Sunshield in Sherman Oaks $120. I've brought so many cars here. Never a problem. Heck, they do dealerships.

35% fronts, 20% backs.

Default Clearbra Application

I got the clear bra on there. I remember my old 300ZX getting chipped up like crazy. Here's a layout for those who are interested. I got the full hood and added the rocker panels.



For those worried with partial coverage over the hood and fenders. It looks like this.

Also, I didn't get the sport package because I wanted a smoother ride and I actually like the rims on the base better. Got navigation package instead just to get rid of the cubby.

Have to admit, the its actually more comfy in my 370Z compared to my brothers BMW with sport suspension. And he agrees with me...

Many places do partial kits for about $495 for the 3M Ventureshield and about $100 more for the Xpel. I did mine at Sticker City, next door to Sunshield in Sherman Oaks.

Then they'll upsell you with full fenders or fulls hoods. That's where it'll go way over budget. So with the full hood and rocker panels, came close to $1200 with Xpel. I know it's a lot but wife approved it without me saying a word. I was just gonna get a partial.

Also, they can do the whole car around $2500-2800 ballpark, I believe...
