What did you do with your Z today VI (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

370z_Roadster · 09-08-2014, 08:31 PM

Today I tore into my Roadster's storage compartment for the Convertible Top. Found a styrofoam insert and once it was removed, I found the perfect spot for a 8"Bazooka Tube Sub. Quite surprised at the amount of room in there. There are actually 6x9 cutout's in there as well. Should easily sound better than the 10" square sub box that is taking up half of my trunk.

Took my car to Nissan for new all-season summer tires install (had 50% left, but had the tires on hand), ordered NISMO 2 side graphics, dropped in K&N's, finished my 21K or so inspection, re-tinted back window (had a small rear window tear from hauling a sharp metal object that shook), changed oil (even-though it wasn't due), bought a GTR cap & an official Nissan emergency road kit (just in-case)...Oh, & test drove a C6 Corvette - didn't like it (the transmission was bad at 30K, & banged).

My Z passed the 20k km mark last night on my cruise... it's so much fun to drive!

Finally, after over a week, their Ins. Comp. approved the repairs this a.m.
Full amount of my shops estimate.
Rental car.
Diminished value (tbd) after repairs.

Now... must wait 2-4 days for parts to arrive.
7 to 10 days for repair.

put the spacers on 25f-35r

Yay for the Z being the DD!

Yay for Tahoe's not knowing how to dodge debris and instead running it over and kicking it up into my car!

YAAAAYYYYY!

dohhhh...

Haboob · 09-09-2014, 09:07 AM

I wonder if insurance would cover a clear bra?

Otherwise she's gonna look ugly until I can afford a new one in a couple of years.

kenchan · 09-09-2014, 09:12 AM

they should. just tell the claims adjuster or bodyshop appraiser guy u got clearbra on there.

Haboob · 09-09-2014, 09:15 AM

If it doesn't come out, I'm hoping they'll respray the hood and then I'll pay the extra to get the whole hood clear bra'd the next time around.

Or just sell the car and get something else.

Pintsize725 · 09-09-2014, 09:34 AM

Sorry for your Z damage, Boobz.

Pintsize725 · 09-09-2014, 09:34 AM

Arrived at the shop at 9 this morning. I've been up since 6 and am ready for a nap.

They do cover it. Wife needed a new bumper for her SUV and they paid to have bra put back on. ( twice!)

Damn, sorry to hear about this incident.
