Actually Sumter has a pretty thriving car scene, thanks in no small part to Shaw.

We have a dozen or so members in Sumter. If you're up for it, we're having a cruise down the Charleston Saturday. I think 4 or 5 from Sumter are going. We'll be meeting up outside Cola and cruising down together.

Hey thanks yall... My tablet shut down with no warning. So this is round two (ding,ding) on a greeting/intro/gratitude/response. Short and sweet this go around..ha. I love living in the south and I enjoy the many benefits of the southern weather. Cars/bikes/trucks. Hope to make it to CIN sometime this spring "Z day" ect. As I'm new to the Z world, I know little about these cars really. Other then Just from what I read. One thing is certain, the clutch system blows. Need that corrected sooner then later. And haha...stock exhaust, ur funny. But in your defense... U never know. I like the max 2 so far. Haven't gotten really to test it out per say.also Looking to get a viper 5906v remote start/Alarm on it soon. If your going luxury sport go the extra mile on a remote start in addition im Getting the driver seat touched up ATM, so I can get that new butt cushion feel with some new leather. Also tint of course, but this will be my first car with that UV ray windshield tint. Let's hope no SC boulders come flying at me down these fantastic kept roads. I'll stop rambling. Ps. No wife, no kids... No wants. ...just cars an girlfriends. Thank god. To each is there own.-Jay

Hello everyone!

Im another proud owner of a 370z currently living in Florence, SC. I had a couple of questions that I was hoping some of you guys could answer. Im in the process of buying a whole bunch of mods for the car and was wondering if any of you had any recommendations on where to take the car to get them done? Im not very well versed in DIY and want to make sure its done at a good shop at a decent price. Anyway, below are all the parts (cant wait!):

- Motordyne Intake Manifold, Art Pipes, Shockwave E370 exhaust
- 2015 Nismo body kit
- vinyl wrapping the whole car

Also, any recommendations on a good shop that does vehicle vinyl wrapping will be much appreciated!

Thanks for all the help!

Hey Erfan,
Welcome! As far as the performance work goes. The best place close to you would be Proauto in Columbia. The owner, Nick, is a great guy and supports the local scene really well. They're on facebook or http://www.proauto-llc.com. Tell Nick Josh sent you.

As far as the wraps, well you're in luck there too. Elicit design solutions is owned and operated by two Z guys, and they do phenomenal work. They're based in Charlotte, so its not too far of a hike. Far and away the best wraps I've ever personally seen.

Elicit Design Solutions

Chris is on here I believe, but I don't know his username off hand.

Perfect! Thanks for the advice!

I headed to Daytona Beach for the Daytona 500. As I Left sc yesterday is was 29* out..burrr. And arrived at 70* down here The 370z runs 90 mph smooth as silk on I95. In short, the 370z reminds me of a stock c5 with updated interior. But I've been meaning to meet up with a few of y'all for a run. I have a buddy who has a TTG37@ shaw also who is interested. I'm all stock and just enjoy a good cruise. Maybe when the south east warms up and dries out will all meet up.
