Why don't we get the rear fog light anyways? It kind of hacks me off the more I think about it. Anyone have a logical answer?

:gtfo2: TOW HITCH....too funny! Between that comment and the endless amounts of spacers left in the Nismo's I'm losing faith in the Nissan Dealers. Makes it that much easier to mod the car and lose my warranty, not sure I want them wrenching on it anyway.:ugh2:

Well dang...I'm hookin' the Sanger up. Anyone wanna go wakeboarding???

motoextreme 01-21-2010 02:17 AM

Wakeboarding? How about snowboarding? I've had 5 days in so far, going next weekend for 3 and Tahoe a couple weeks after that.

Wakeboarding..that's fun too but try surfing behind a boat, we do it all the time in Big Bear, its a blast!

Since Puerto Rico is part of the U.S., we DON'T get it either. Shucks!

I believe it has to do with certain states may not allow rear fog lights, only front. So Nissan just removed it from all US bound cars, but I am not 100% on this answer.

My husband has always wanted to try wake surfing (is that what it's called?) With the ballasts filled, our boat definitely throws a big wake...someday we'll have to try that! I have never been to Big Bear...but have always wondered if I could snowboard. I'm a decent wakeboarder when I want to be.. With all this rain, the conditions are bound to be stellar up there now!

Well... When it warms up your welcome to come up and try it, our boat stays in the water all summer. As far as BB, yes, snow is nuts right now but too darn busy to make it up there. If you guys make it up, shoot me a note and I'll make sure to show you around, its not Aspen or anything but its a nice local spot.

Sorry for the threadjack!!! :ugh2::ugh2:

Hey motoextreme - you gettin' dumped on up there in Chino Hills? I used to live up there (10+ years, live down in OC now).

motoextreme 01-21-2010 12:54 PM

I live in Carbon Canyon, I'm sure you know it well. The Golf Course has a damn river going through it, its insane! All of a sudden my home is waterfront property...makes me wonder if I can get more $ for it..HAHA. I wanted to go boarding this weekend but I just called my neighbor that lives next to my cabin and he said there's no way up there right now.

Two of my staff called in that they we're evacuated from flooding...California is sinking!!! Good thing I keep my Boat here in the parking lot if sh#$ goes real south HAHAHAHAHA:eek::eek::eek:

Someone care to enlighten me?

That fog light will add to your Z because it not only looks cool but also makes you more visible at night. This light is a little brighter than the tail lights. Click on the pic to see what I mean. This pic taken at dusk. Got mine from Z1. They are a great supplier for our Z's.

There's a small square plastic piece (not the one you're referring to, this one is body colored) in the center of the bumper...I had an installer drill a small hole in it for a backup cam, works great.
