I believe this mod. is called whiting out or clearing the tail lights.
Or the end product is called Clear Tail Lights. :tup:
Real nice mod on the white z!

Those are the JDM "Stylish" tails... A link was posted on here somewhere. Try searching for JDM "Stylish" option.

I know your pain man... but I was soo close to getting a white one.. but the black just spoke to me so much... plus i was trading in my black g35... the legacy had to live on haha... black +1

Just saw a white in person
 
I just saw a white in person and still cannot decide. They both look reallly good. Can anyone tell me if a black is even worth it when comes down to the constant maintenance of the exterior. Thats pretty much the only thing keeping me from choosing black. Washing my car once a week is not a problem to me, but would it take a much more considerable amount of care. Damn, this is really hard to choose! Any suggestions of any kind that will help me finalize my decision, would be truly appreciated.:tup:

If you have a garage to park the car in that would help.

I am not going to say its easy, but I wash my black 370Z once a week. I wax it once a month. I use Zaino products and the car looks clean all week. It is garaged at night. I use all cotton towels and have my routine down. Takes about 1 hour to wash and 4 hours to wash/wax. Overall I would say that the black is well worth the effort. I don't have any water spots or swirl marks due to using Zaino Z5 which claims it protects against those. Black looks the best!!

I vote for white!

Flip a coin or go with whatever you can get sooner.

nogoodname 04-30-2009 10:23 AM

i vote for black, when it's clean....no other colour compares !!

cg370z 04-30-2009 10:57 AM

black looks best (when clean). I have always had black cars, and after years and years of water spots, paint swirls from washing so often, rock chip spots, constant cleaning, it just isn't worth it anymore. I drive 100 miles a day, and i would have to clean my car daily if i wanted it to look at all presentable. If i were you, i would go with white. It looks classy, and hides rock chips, water spots, dirt, paint swirls, and bird sh!t better than black. Since you don't have a garage, you will be washing a black car way more often than a white car.

Actually rock chips on the front plastic fascia look terrible on the white, the plastic underneath is black.

nogoodname 04-30-2009 11:21 AM

^^ lol... so grey colour chips on the sheet metal and black colour chips on the plastic.

if you go white, the bumper chips will show.
if you go black the hood chips will show.
