You only use a quick release if you have a cage... wtf would you use one otherwise?

I only had a Kirk Racing harness bar, Recaro SRII's, and Willans harness'... I couldn't get out of the damn car without crushing the side bolster. That's the only reason I had a QD... I also live in Miami FL so I guess I can say it was for security.

I have no problem with it, that basically what I'm gonna do. It's only thing I can think of if doing by quick release by itself. Dunno.

Color matched would look better. Most cf hoods are heavier than stock since it's just a single aesthetics layer over fiberglass.

if you really want a nice steering wheel and you want to stay with a Nissan product, try one of the Nissan factory option 350 z steering wheels made by Momo for the JDM 350 z. If you google that you will find my steering wheel swap on my Nissan Maxima and I just love that steering wheel

Yeah I would paint the hood and lip and get some cheap depo headlights and switch out the headlight lenses. Throw in some clear sti projector lenses while your at it

I just like the look of the steering wheel. It goes good with my white wheels. Overall i just prefer the feel of it than the stock steering wheel. I think the only thing i do not like is no longer having cruise control.
I do want to track the car one day, so i guess i can use it as an excuse lmao.

That's even LESS of a reason to have a QD/Aftermarket steering wheel without the associated safety equipment.

If you have a quick release shouldn't you have a harness? It might not be your driving that you are worried about, but it should be the texting teenager in a 6000lbs killing machine.

BTW what's with all the lol/lmao while calling people "haters"? It's very confusing.
