Rode the R1 to the dealer to check on my Z. They got the test pipes in... funny first question was "Hey you know you dont have cats anymore right?".

Hey anyone know about the cat support brace/bracket. Ive read some threads saying it can cause wear on the HFC/TP.. Anyways they hooked it up ater the Z1 test pipes required some modifying to fit.

Went to get my carbon spoiler installed, only to find that the holes for the template that comes with it are in the complete wrong place. Thankfully I stopped the guy before he started drilling, otherwise there would be two useless holes in my hatch. I'm going to a different body shop tomorrow morning, the guy there is very confident and is highly regarded so fingers crossed third time's the charm!


Nice to hear your wife is doing better Kenchan! I'm sure your company gives her a big leg up, no pun intended...

Dang, that's a scary thought having two extra useless holes, glad you were able to stop the guy in time!

Thanks, yah she's been thanking me a lot. We promised to take car of each other when we got married so just doing my part. ofcourse I have been reminding her to watch out for revenge when she's all better. Hahaha lol

Haha, I think you may have missed my humorous perspective on that post.

On a serious note... glad your wife and car are doing well! I have done the back thing and it's no fun.

Just a small one Papo. Doubt I will have the front spacers on by the time you see her this weekend... but we will see.

aha, rightly so... i was kinda running on fumes yesterday so my comprehension may have been lower than the usual low.

thanks for your thoughts, yah she's working from home (bed) today. she's remotely hooked up to her clients as well so some things she can do from home.

this am dropped off the kids at their summer camp again. the parking lot at the school is packed with minivans and SUV's and soccer moms and dads who dont know how to drive... so im like taking my pretty car (G35C) there... especially since i need to park for 5-10min to go in and sign them in... but im so sick and tired of driving my AT HondaFit i took the G.

maybe next time i will drop off the kids then come home, swap cars, then go to work. lol

Washed and did my first clay bar treatment on the Z today. Also washed the girlfriends Camry.

Tomorrow is set aside to put a nice coat of wax on the Z. Should be some great weather.

I may have to try out the new camera after the wax job. It's not anything special but it isn't an iPhone.

Unfortunately, he already marked those two locations with that sharp punch tool which guides the drill bit so I have to little pin pricks in the paint and two little dimples. Thankfully they will be covered up by the spoiler!

Haha, I imagine it would be funny to come up with a revenge prank. Just watch out so that it doesn't turn into domestic war!
