She hit my rear passenger fender with her front driver side fender. The damage is obvious on her white car, but I'm having trouble documenting the damage to the Z, which is mostly light scuffs. Going to get an estimate for repairs, but I probably won't file with her insurance unless the estimate comes back high. Chances are I can just buff it out myself but we'll see.

A hassle to set aside time to deal with it but at least no cost to you with her intent to get things done through her insurance.

Those look awesome. Been thinking about installing a set, but paint matching them to the car.

Even with my 34 row cooler the car was running hot at my last track day, and it was only 70 degrees

If you are pushing it into the upper RPM's I also see oil temps of 240-250 with a 34 row oil cooler. Never goes over that though.

Well Crap. "Think"!!! So what do you think of the end result. It's always better to see in person than with a picture.

Well, I need to get it off the jack stands and out of the garage in the sunlight. In the garage, it looks good.

The hood vents look really nice they should help you out thumbs up. Were they hard to install? Did you trust yourself cutting your hood?

Rusty does Circumcision as a hobby when he was younger!

He cuts everything.

Getting everything layout and equal was the hardest part. And that wasn't that hard. The hardest part was putting on the little washers on the back of the pop rivets.
