Been taking a positive outlook on life lately: the other driver and I weren't injured, my airbags didn't deploy, the ~$3k of suspension parts I just installed weren't damaged, etc.

Ah Jesus. As if an accident wasn't bad enough... Good luck getting everything moving again, bro. Looks like a solid build so far.

You have an accident in the z and they give you that beast to drive....that thing has electric motors! Electric! Everyone know electricity is the devils magic! I hope you survive and get back into something a little more manageable than that beast.

Update: Just receive this picture from Erik @ West Jones



Thanks to my friend John I didn't have to settle with an OEM bumper, he sold me a C-West N1 rep for a great price. Although the fitment is not perfect, I am happy with how it looks.

Huge shoutout to Erik @ West Jones, had a great customer experience with him and his staff. Will be picking my car up on Thursday afternoon, and alignment appointment on Saturday morning with Corner3 Garage

It fit on my car better than that, they need to adjust it. Your car came out clean though.

I texted Erik the pics you posted; way to make my Z look mundane, John

Edit: Erik said he'd take another look at it tomorrow

Update:

Matt helped me fix my installation yesterday... Suspension arms were all out of whack

Quick pic before we started:


Trimmed/cleaned the bumper up beforehand:


Front suspension:


Rear suspension:


There are no clearance issues with the reservoirs/hoses at all

SPL rear camber arms:


Rear suspension arms and eccentric bolts:


Current ride height:


I respect people whose taste leans heavily toward flush fitment... but not my goal at all. Love the ride height and still scrape going into my old Pasadena driveway

3rd attempt at alignment on Wednesday.
