After last night, I feel raped by PayPal.

Ouch.

I hit a squirrel with the Z

I slowed down and tried to make a maneuver, but he pulled a 180 just at the wrong time. I think the chin spoiler got 'em.

The splatter from the paintball gun is much easier to clean than actual squirrel blood

I've been seeing a green 300 ZXtt, just like my old one (that was killed), for nearly two years. Every time I see it and try and talk or leave a note for the owner, the car leaves before I can do anything.

Today I had my note and ran to leave it, when I discovered it was an automatic, and left with note in hand.

Mine was totalled by a drunk driver and his at the factory.

I am disappointed since I'd built up an expectation. Oh well.

Will save us thousands in paint:

Put a mirror against the wall in your garage so you can see how close you are to the front of your Z!

I had to notify the HOA that there is a DRIP in my garage's overhead plumbing that is dripping calcified water on my car leaving those "white" water marks on my paint as it the water dries.. lucky I KEEP it waxed and maintained.
At least they got on it right away and the "leak" will be repaired by Friday. Other than that, still getting those grins on my face as the car performs as nice as the day I drove it off the lot in August of '09!

Nice side blades as well. I have some sitting my garage waiting to be installed with the rest of my exterior mods that I have not done anything with yet. Mine are FRP not CF thought. Not sure if I want to do matte black, or gloss black yet.

What do you guys & Pintsize girls think flat or gloss for my front splitter, side blades, and rear difuser?

Yup, we have 15 yr law...so the flood gates open as long as its 15yrs old. Some very nice right hand drive R32's, RX-7's and Supra's

Thanks! Ya mine were sitting there for so long then finally decided to tackle them myself. As for Matte or gloss...I love gloss usually, and my CF is gloss...but Matte might look really good I think!

We can tell the Z is pulled into the garage JUST far enough when the auto lights come on in the daytime

my wife bitched like crazy when I left a mirror facing the car pulling in (it reflected the headlights in a seriously blinding manner)

No damage - just some splatter which I made sure to wash off as soon as I got home.

I usually encounter them in the backyard (or maybe its more accurate to say THEY encounter the paintballs that spew from my neighbor's and my yard). Other than a bird I hit with my Explorer driving 70 mph down 290 West, I have to say I've been pretty lucky when it comes to that - especially when I start to consider that I've put 100K miles on my previous four vehicles driving around Texas the past 15 years.

kenchan · 05-01-2012, 11:12 PM

yah, as pintsize mentioned, if not CF, then i think matte black finish would look good!
