I used two of them the day prior to clean my exhaust tips with Adam's Metal Polish 1 and 2. That stuff works amazingly well. My previous experience with metal polishes has been so poor, I am sold on this stuff.

Lip and emblem look great, btw


I ordered a bottle of each this week based solely on your recommendation mr. Anal about my Z and how it looks!! it will be here Monday or so!

They're going to paint the bumper black, right?

But seriously, awesome. I'm sure you're happy it's finally getting done

Just bought two more rear tires. 285/35/19 RE-11's.

The rears right now have 22k on them which is pretty good for RE-11's but threads are showing.

Now I'm debating whether or buy a Yamaha R1, the new GTM TT kit, or misc stuff for the Z like stillen facia/slotted rotors/TE37SL's/coli overs

This morning I picked up a Mobil 1 oil filter for the oil change this weekend.

Yesterday, I made a step for the Z so my floor jack will reach the front center jack point

^^ I always go in from the front. Is it safe to jack in the center from the side?

lol actually, I didn't even think about that. I always jack it up from the front, too. I just took the photo there to show the jack clearing the side skirts and the tire on the step. At one point very near the jack point, the plastic undershroud hangs down further than the side skirts, but by the the time I get the puck to the jack point, the jack still clears it from the front. I don't think I could jack it up from the side because the jack would be right in the way of where I need to put a jack stand.

Toooo much.

Today I'm going to clay the car, then use a battery of adams products (paint correction, swirl&haze remover, buttery wax, glaze). Time to put the allweathers away too!

Berk HFC/CBE installed last night. A few adjustments and it'll be perfect. Sounds amazing though!
