Went to the beach this morning with my 2 ladies. Then had some smoked chicken tacos from a beach burrito place.

Snapped a pic of one of the girls.. can never get both of them at the same time tho!

Great job keeping your cool.

Almost done reupholstering the whole interior and seats, and installing carpet. (never came with carpet originally and had to remake all the panels out of thin wood and cover them in leather). Also re-did the dash and all gauges and hardware and replaced all the floorboards that were rotten. Just have to grind down the door latches some and throw in the front seats.

I had equalme paint match some emblems when I got the door handles done. Finally put them on the car. The front was super easy, because the bumper and emblem are brand new. I was able to just pry it up cleanly and all of the adhesive stuck to the emblem. The rear was a PITA!

What should we call this, stealth-badged?

Eh, I felt this was a better option than the cheesy "Z" emblems, or paying out the *** for a debadge job.

I guess. I quite like the satin Z badges back and front minus the 370z logo that is. Hopefully you will get the wording colored in right?

debadging just takes some fishing line and a warm day! And some cleaning product too

equalme · 08-04-2014, 12:22 AM

Washed her

axmea? · 08-04-2014, 12:09 PM

Dropped off to replace differential bushings and then watch her get tuned later this afternoon.

Spooler · 08-04-2014, 02:09 PM

Just had a carport built for mine. Got all my rides under it now. Thank goodness.

Spooler · 08-04-2014, 03:53 PM

Yeap, got a 24x36ft one. I am going to enclose it in one day. I need a shop so I can work on restoring my 1969 VW Bug ( modified to the hilt) and my 1975 Datsun 280zt. The 280zt has been in my house garage. Nismo was having to sit outside. Not anymore.

qd'ed afterwards.

I went on an awesome drive in the mountains of NC yesterday, finally past the break in period!

Also, new shift knob! Stock one was a pain, I'm really glad I bought strap wrenches.
