My dad has carpet on his dash; they live in Florida. Protects the dash for the next owner...at his age, I guess that would be me (grin)! I thank him regularly for taking such good care of my Land Cruiser...he just laughs. But I'm sure it will be the last vehicle he buys. Personally, I prefer a sunshade for when I'm parked. The carpet on the dash just doesn't look great. But hey, I run a bra on mine, and that is ugly, too. I guess I'm protecting my front-end for my car's next owner, too...

I've been looking for exactly that...neoprene covers to protect the leather. It gets soooo dirty in a convertible.

Did you opt. for the inflatable lumbar supports?
Anything more to say about the seat covers? It looks like the headrest cover could be a bit tighter. I'm really interested in getting these. How much were yours after all the options they let you choose from?

no, i didnt opt for the support.. the seat fitz my back pretty well, even on long trips.. i got the std 2 color seat cover, with half piping, full back pockets, n Z graphics for $314 (both seats) (excludez tax n shipping).. the seat covers fit very well, but i caution they didnt have an opening where the power seat controls are - if u have the touring model n up... the headrests r a little loose n i probably could fit them better for the shot.. overall, i m very happy with the color against the black, n u r right, i kept dusting the leather n i wanted a cover that is washable and lookz great on the black z.. (but didnt want the nissan orange color either...) also, it takes the company bout 3 -4 weeks to make the covers...

That's pretty nice...I'll have to order some of those soon. I need them so bad. If I touch the back of the headrest my hand turns black. I clean them A LOT too...it's so annoying!

I had them powdercoated by a company here in Tampa. I bought someone's OEM calipers after they got a big brake kit, had them powdercoated, and then replaced mine. The company did the work but I had to take the calipers disassembled to them and it took them a week to get them back to me. It was worth the hassle...

Well, I finally got around to taking a few pics. I haven't really done that much to the car as far as visuals go, except the Stillen Stage 2. I really need to get a set of rims and tires, something with a really fat lip.

So here goes, hope you guys like it. Personally, I don't think the pictures do the Stillen hood any justice. It really does look good in person.

Only upgrade are the Goodyear Eagle F1-D3 tires, 255 rear and 235 front.

I was getting chips on both paint and headlights, which was the rationale for the bra and headlight protectors, but hey, it looks all right too!!

Default Thought I would say Hello.

There are some really host rides in here...
Here is a pic of mine, not much done really, still looking to drop in a TT, suspension and BBK kit sometime in the (near) future..
