so this am the contractor came by to pour fresh concrete for my driveway. one of the guys pounded my front door at 6:30am (i was already up and about) asking me to open the garage.

i was like ha? why do you need my garage door open? guy was like so that his boyz haz room to smooth out the cement, yo. i was like WTF yo, use your longer pole to reach the center, im not opening my garage for them to be swinging around their concrete squeegees on a stick or watever it's called 10inches away from my G and Z. and i know those guys would be smearing their hands and arms on my cars while the mixer poured the concrete. and checking out my girls (no not man boobs, i mean my cars )... wtf.

so i told him nicely "guys, i got 2 sports cars in here..." and their leader was like 'oh ok. no issue then.' (please dont confuse the kenchan)

so off they went. looks pretty good. need to let it cure for 4 days.

A new driveway sounds cool. Keeping those guys out of the garage is even more so. Have a great day, Mr. Kenchan.

Drove behind another Z (350) for the first time ever while I was in my 370. It was exciting until he turned lol. It's just so rare in this area to have a Z. [good thing]

edit: Also got a California Duster. it's great for pollen!! Just use the very ends of the brush and gravity to do the dusting. They're only like $10 and come in a nice pouch

yep! make sure you let it sit on some old newspaper for a couple of days to rid the excess paffrin in there. otherwise it smears on glass.

Hopefully my last day driving this godforsaken rental. My Z should be back from the body shop tomorrow.

Ordered a SS spoiler in black to add to some of the two-tone paint I'm doing.

Shopping for a Nismo TI shift knob for a better feel. Also researching short shifters if anyone has ideas.

Hopefully will have time to get my tint done before going to the meet tomorrow here in Houston.
