I hope your insurance will take care of you.

Wife is driving the Z today so I can get the Acura's oil changed in preparation for our trip out of town tomorrow. Unlike many people on the forum, I am actually excited for her because it's been a long time since she drove it. I am wondering if she'll give me any feedback on the tune or the clutch pedal

Have a wonderful and safe trip.

So much better than the opaque. Clean look for sure.

I've got the 9 bulb red led map lights and I fear their brightness with the gtr lenses.

Hi Chris, so sorry to hear that. It's a horrible feeling to walk out and see where someone has transferred their hate onto your private property. Hope you get everything sorted out soon, and hope that person finds help with their mental state before they hurt someone else or themselves.

This is so messed up. How awful. Best of luck. Uploading the picture is unnecessary.

Installed new LED license plate bulbs. I had some connection problems with ones previously where the contacts are just a single filament. I won't have any problems with the connection with these

*sigh* got somewhat of a quote today from the body shop. Seems like they are just digging an digging to milk the insurance company for money. My quote to fix my car so far is at $12,000.... When I asked them what my total out cost was, they responded "Not 100% sure but when we get close, it'll red flag us."

Really sorry to hear about your woes. The good news is, there is light at the end of the tunnel.
