600 grit sandpaper, some elbow grease, and a kit I picked up from an auto parts store with all components needed and UV clear coat to protect the lights.

Washed the Z this morning. Thought I might have to give it a once over with a final polish but no need, paint is still in great condition.
A layer of collinite 476S wax coming up later today.

Went back out to the garage and finished up the rear view cam. Turning out to be a productive day.
Hard to get a good pic of the LCD screen.


I bought a cheap license plate light holder off ebay that came with a cheap camera, I think $20. Pulled the camera out and put in the one that came with the mirror.
Easy to mount, just pop old light housing out and snap new one in its place. feed the wire through a grommet into trunk and walla, done. (yes, those are dried water spots from the cruise after the wash, will be QD'd later .

Went to the AAM Competition Open House in Annapolis Junction Maryland. Lots of cars, good food and free give aways. Won a t-shirt. They gave away some other cool stuff as well. Had fun. Many Z's there but the Maxima contingent was huge. Probably 50 or so Maxima's.

Started the day by adding Kno Knoise Kollosus Edition sound deadening to the rear hatch area, then washed it. The sound deadening seems to have helped quite a bit- I no hear more wind noise that road noise at 70+

Are those rims in the first pic brushed turquoise? Brushed teal?
