What did you do with your Z today

McFrostyJ · 06-27-2011, 09:03 PM

Today we took a 149.5 mile trip down the old Oregon Trail, through the Columbia River Gorge and back around Mt Hood.
I love this car!

Picked up some Blue interior LED's for the dome and trunk. Hoping it gives it a nice glow and doesn't make the car smell like Uncle Bens.

The usual: Uncover, motor, de-bug with QD, re-cover.

I have had a similar episode cruising after a cruise night. I was in the fast lane and had a car pull up in the slow lane. He yelled out so I turned down the music and he asked a couple questions and said he liked my car. When the light turned green he let me in and I turned right at the next light. I've never had a negative comment inperson just by posters here. Aint that strange? Wouldn't think haters would be on here. But maybe everybody isn't as they seem here.

It's easy to hate on the Internet...in person, not so much.

i like the sound, it's not loud, but you can tell it's not stock anymore. As for power, not sure yet, someone was going to get it'd dyno'd, not sure if they did yet or not.

Last night, I kenchan'd (that's hip for motored, btw

) my Z to our late night softball game. (We lost btw... grrrr). I gave a friend's son a ride in it, he's 19.

This morning, I once again kenchan'd Zena to work, and dropping her off to get clear bra'd (A-pillars, headlights, door handles, door guards) and 3M black CF wrap on the lower rear valence.

Pics when done.

p.s. I decided NOT to go with the clear bra on hood and fenders, as I don't think I can live with the "line" or "edge". On long trips, I'll just place blue painter's tape (what I use to buff/polish anyways), then the OEM leather bra that goes 3" on the hood to protect from chips....

hahaha!!!

yep, painter's tape ftw! actually when i drove to TR the other day in my G, i just kept good distance from the cars infront of me and went with no protection. felt good.

FromG2Z · 06-28-2011, 10:18 AM

^ hehe I figured you'd like that term. I should edit it to say "kenchan'd is hip for motored which is slang for drove"

Yeah as far as keeping good distance, I still do that no matter what, but sometimes on the highway, it's unavoidable to get behind semi's or cars that just go off of the main road into the sides and kick up all these rocks.... Chances are slim, but it's happened to me more than 1x already. And all it takes is that 1 time, then you have a permanent chip arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh
