Srenity 04-27-2012 10:29 PM

Attempted a home repair on a good sized curb rash on my 40th. I used Dr. Colorchip with Nissan KAV paint code. This color is for the body not the wheels but it actually worked okay. A lot better than the wheel rash for sure.

im supposed to be cleaning but im too damn tired.

Fire 04-27-2012 10:31 PM

Does look much better Srenity. I'd say it would be hard to spot if you didn't know it was there.

Thanks guys, It could have come out even better if I completly smoothed out the rash. I took a rotory tool to it with a dense polishing attachment but did not get it very smooth. Either way I am pretty happy.


I am jelous of all this ZdayZ talk. Much to far for me to go, and my GF would not understand spending vacation for this rather than Costa Rica like our current plan is.

Yeah, told him 4 ft wide. What color you looking for??? He said he is pressed for time. If you can email me the design (the bigger the resolution the better) and the size this weekend I would hope he could get it done.

m4a1mustang 04-27-2012 10:57 PM

PM me your email. I'll send you the hi res image and some measurements for a quote. Color... not 100% sure yet. Probably red or black.

Fire 04-27-2012 10:57 PM

I understand that Srenity my other vaca this year is a cruise to Aruba. I'm not going to ZDayZ either due to my Z being a trade in for the ZL1 that will not be here before ZDayZ. I'm going to imports at Carlisle and a fire expo in Harrisburg that weekend. :ugh2:

Alchemy 04-27-2012 11:00 PM

PM sent Steve.

m4a1mustang 04-27-2012 11:02 PM

Got it. Thanks bud. I'll get everything for you tomorrow. Gonna hit the hay now and get up early to clean. :icon17:

later guys

Big dinner, Game of Thrones, now bed.

Got the oil changed at 273 miles for free. After that I went to pick up my niece for her first ride in the car & then for ice cream.

GaleForce 04-28-2012 07:33 AM

Good morning O.F.C :hello: We made it! The weekend has arrived! You worked hard all week for this, have an excellent weekend, enjoy :tup:

I'm planning on taking the Z for a short drive this morning while the beautiful sun is out. Then I'll be playing Mr.Mom for the rest of the day/night :tup:

I'm in the same boat. I have a list next to my iPad as a reminder. Kind of like the naughty/nice list :happydance:

I have the same list thing -- without the iPad. I keep a list to make sure everyone gets some and that I evenly distribute them. My repping is out of control. I need to get some help. Professional help. Maybe medication too.

Alchemy 04-28-2012 08:33 AM

Rep lists???? LOL. You guys are dedicated. I usually just look at who has repped me recently and return the favor. Today I am plasti dipping the front fangs on the new bumper I got last fall. The previous bumper was dipped and I have been slacking on dipping the new one. Looks much better with the fangs blacked out, IMO. Not looking forward to masking it all off though. Have a great weekend guys!!!!!!

I just bought a UPS-truck-full of detailing supplies for the Z, from Auto Finesse. It's hard to use restraint when they have a BOGO this weekend and their stuff is the sex. :yum:

Pintsize725 04-28-2012 08:57 AM

:hello: Morning all! Drove her in to work today for some OT. Picking up some Mobil 1 or Redline and supplies later. Sunday will be maintenance day. :tup:

:tup: sounds exciting mr.gale :yum:

I checked my G and Z's tire psi this am. Had to let out 1.5psi. That's about all for today.... rain day. :( hope I get to play tomorrow....! :excited:

Happy saturday everyone! :hello:

kenchan 04-28-2012 09:00 AM

Srenity- I use spot bondo when I have curb rash and want to fix it. Its hard to match paint though.

I have a size rash about as your wheel on my weds. Needless to say I bought a new wheel and tire and the curbed one is my spare. :icon17:

Nice! I just used Redline for my oil change but think I'll give Mobile 1 a try next time. The local GTR certified dealership swears by Mobile 1.

I also used a K&N oil filter, slightly bigger than stock, HP-1010 I think.

Have fun wrenching :tup:

Boo to the rain day. It's cold here but the sun is shining so I have to take advantage of it while I can :tup:

Are you running air or nitrogen in your tires?

I use Redline Currently, it's good stuff and seems to be very popular among 370z owners! Can't comment on Mobil1, but many on here like it as well. :tup:

Cold but sunny is :tup: I use air. I don't have access to a nitrogen tank that I can put at home nor do I have room in the garage any more due to midwest garbage bins...:ugh2:

Hi guys Happy Sat. going to be on for a few minutes then off to get the Z ready for show tomorrow. Not the warmest weekend here but they say it is going to be sunny tomorow. It might rain/snow today so might have to do my cleaning in the garage.

Pintsize725 04-28-2012 10:14 AM

Got a rep but not sure who from. I'll gladly return the gesture if you let me know. :)
