My weekend went by slow and it was pretty boring. I am still waiting on my wheels to arrive (tracking says wednesday).

Not have my Z for 3 weeks is awful, especially not having it to cruise in on the past beautiful weekends


Also, on another note... I want some opinions because I'm in a predicament. My new wheels are going to be gloss black and I'm stuck on some other black accents to add. I recently removed my tailight tint and black emblems because I had the car washed and they tore my tint so I just peeled it off and went back to a more "stock" look. I have the fangs and rear diffuser painted black. I just don't want to have too much black, but with black wheels i think i need accents. So my questions are:
1) Should I tint my tailights again?
2) Should I get roof vinyl? (super glossy) I really want this.
3) Should I plasti dip my emblems black again?

I know the saying to each their own and ultimately it's my decision, but I would look other opinions to help me.

Thanks SC boys! Hope everyone else had a nice weekend!

I say go for all 3. It will look sick.

if you can't tell, I'm partial to black. I have been trying to figure out a cool way to tint my tail lights as well. I would really love to get a set of JDM tails and paint them like my headlights but everyone I have talked to said you can't get them apart without breaking them.

I think I might go all 3. Also, I got the tail light tint from bluebatmobile and it looked really good

I think you will be happy. It will look sick. You have the 28th marked down on your calendar, right?

Yes I do. I will find out about work this week. I just help a guy cut grass on weekends and I'm sure I can get off.

Have you guys ever heard of the site below? I'm just making sure its not a scam site. It says Nissan Autosports, but I've never heard of them. Prices seem good, at least on the Nismo suspension.

I have never heard of them but I think it's legit. Some of the major honda OEM parts online retailers are just a dealership that has branched out. Seems like this is the same thing for Nissan. Check out the "about us" section. I would probably order from them (with my CC just in case). Parts definitely seem to be priced well.

I think I saw you in Summerville today near the Jeep dealership. I was in my V-Dub and just finished checking out the MW3 edition Jeep Wrangler.

Me? I don't think it was me. I'm driving the civic today.

That MW3 Jeep is sick. I would love to trade the civic in for one.
