Dallaz, damn shame on the break-in. Hope your insurance took care of it.

Deer ran out in front of me back in August. Hit it at about 45 mph. Car held up amazingly well, only slightly bent the hood. Bumper got a few small spider cracks in the paint and they replaced that too. Ill have it back by the end of the work day

Alchemy - sounds good!

was a long wait.

No Z action for me today. Hope to motor her tomorrow and Sunday.

Will do a quick no-rinse on the G today.

Dallaz sorry to hear about the headache.

Well actually I'm radio-less in the 3k for now cause it was an aftermarket touch screen display and we only keep full coverage on the Z and Camaro. O well, could have been worse. They left the amps and subs in the back which is weird but I guess they wanted to be in n out so they just took the screen. All of the stuff in my center console and glove box were taken out, rummaged through, and left on the passenger seat/floor, gas door popped open, and doors left unlocked afterwards for me to find it days later (cause we hardly drive the cars). Now I make it a point on my way to and from work to go by them and check on them

Feel ya. Had this happen to my murano. I was the genious that left a hand-built classical guitar, radar detector and gps in the car at the time. They took everything valuable and left the car a mess

Sucks to here that your car was broke into.

Wheels are looking nice MJB!

today is the first time my car didn't move for more than 12 hours. I decided to walk to work and it didn't get driven until I went to get dinner. But, I did make up a to-do/checklist of mods for my car over in my album. Also decided no matter how much i do to it, the body will maintain a very subtle look to it. If it gets any body kit added to it, that will be last.

No Z action today, but Swift install tomorrow.

Happy Friday, Mr. Kenchan

I am going to take it to one of the Z-crew's shops and pay the shop a little bit for the time. I did not feel like doing this job at home on the ground with jack-stands, etc. Using the lift and being able to immediately align it make spending a few bucks worthwhile.

Pics to follow.

Good call, it's a PIA without a lift.

Finally dyed my interior stitching red. Took almost three hours, but I'm happy with the results. Tried to take pictures, but the true color just doesn't show.

Hope to have my matte finish CF interior bits shipped next week. Once those get installed, I'll take some pictures.

Have a great weekend all! I'm parking myself on the couch for college football culminating in the LSU v. Alabama game.

Geaux Tigers!

i too just got done washing the G using sprayon carwash.

. I need to get more practice as it took me total 43min start to cleanup vs 28min regular wash.

Is your seat leather?

Sounds good. I too would rather spend some $ vs losing valuable time. Looking forward to the picts.

Drove Z to work today. Got tailgated by d-bag in a Celica GTS. I refused to bite and he did a ricer flyby as I merrily went the speed limit.

bernardio · 11-04-2011, 12:29 PM

I finished my break-in on the way to work. Can't wait for lunch, cause I'm hungry for acceleration!
