Pics of the mirrors! I want to do the same thing.

Done with my detailing for the day. I have a small wallmount Shopvac that I tried for the first time. Has alot of power for it's size. Ok now for the post that will make Kensan put me on his perm. ignore list. I and waxed my car with wait for it, wait for it, Mothers California Gold Liquid wax. Sorry I don't have a 30 step Zeino system like Kensan. Car did turn out very nice.

Nice job Alchemy. I think with a little spray and wipe with a black detailer the mirror mount will match the plasti dip.

I personally think the black on white looks best. There is a kid down the road from me with a white 370. I dipped his fangs and rear valance last fall. Looks really good on his, better than on mine.

Fire · 04-28-2012, 03:21 PM

Yours looks good Alchemy. MB looks really good one red also IMO

In that case, care to trade?

I'm meeting up with a friend of mine later to get a quote on painting the fangs/rear valence. I don't have the skills to do it myself.

i dont use sayno (zaino). in fact, i dont really care for their system.

it's too many numbers too many crap to remember. maybe okay 10-20yrs ago, but in 2012 all one should need is one simple system.

I have a question.
I have TT and NISMO rear bumper, How do I put a tow hook? :/

Fire · 04-28-2012, 03:26 PM

You don't. Actually if you look under the car on the drivers side there is a tow loop. Your only option would be drilling and tapping or welding on a bung to the alum bumper behind the little access cover.

happytheman · 04-28-2012, 03:42 PM

You said bung!

Alchemy, I really like the black mirrors! You've got me thinking.
