The OEM bumper is already back on the car, no canards though.

I normally have the OEM bumper on the car and put on my V2 for meets/events if time permits.

I'm kinda mad....but only so mad as $13 worth of useless product can make you!

When I bought my Vacmaster VWM510 vacuum on Amazon they listed on the same page a micro-cleaning kit V1MK as being a frequently purchased item with the vacuum. Little did I know that the Vacmaster (which I love by the way) uses a non-traditional 1 7/8" hose, whilst the micro-cleaning kit fits a 1 1/2" hose!

Now why in the hell would Amazon list it like that, if they were incompatible?

Logged in here to remind myself that I have a 370Z.
Between winter storage and my time up in the air, I have almost forgotten how to drive!

I will be calling the city he lives in tomorrow and insisting that they pay for the damages since it was their fault for not smoothing out the street after recent repaving.

Dang Wais, I'm really sorry to hear that

. I made the HUGE mistake of picking up my girlfriend with the Z in downtown LA, I have never seen roads that bad even in NYC and in the North east after winter.

That happened to me too but with Shop Vac accessories, you can sooner go to Home Depot or Lowes and pick up a stepped adapter for every hose diameter.

Ooh! Thanks for the recommendation Christian! Ima check that out tomorrow!

Well, after giving my Z some Vacuum love, I gave it some the370z.com love!

P.s. 80 degrees and (check the reflections) palm trees!!

Can't wait to get my 370Z.COM decal. Looking good Happy!

Today I started my Dynamat installation.

Wow Mr. Onzedge, your friend Eric is really into Roots-based equipment, eh?

LakeShow · 02-05-2012, 11:08 PM

Damn this steering lock thing came out of nowhere and spreading like a cold virus what's going on? I don't have it but everytime I check the forum I just see more people affected.

I've noticed this spread like crazy lately as well. I'm wondering if the only reason I haven't had this yet is because my steering wheel rarely locks
