Ok have I atleast earned a little respect?

My dealer said they did the install and showed me the paperwork...after some inspection the rubber was fading...they will replace it Fri...after work.
But it works like a charm folks.
Sorry if I came off as an ***.

hey that looks pretty cool .. i like it.
does it say how much it costs installed?
can you open the rear hatch at the same time the roof is fully open without hitting it?

The sunroof does look pretty damn nice.. congrats! What about pics of it inside with it close and open? And is there a ceiling to it (from the inside) or is it just the glass on the sunroof? Show the whole car man!

There is a cover on the inside that closes when the sunroof is not in use. It slides foward...color=black.
Call Nissan ask them..I'm curious too of the cost.

I haven't tried to open the sunroof and the hatch at the same time.

They did not give me a cost, but they are changing that strip around the outside...wax or no.

The sunroof looks soo normal I never would have thought..after market.. I'm starting to think the seats are too. They are Black with thin marron/red stripes...?

My first mod I think will be the glowing Z emblems.. and some rims nothing too fancy though.
Ohh and definately a Navigation system!

The link I posted is the exact car I have...for more pics... I just wanted to get these up ASAP... My cousin is like why can't you wait till your girlfriend gets back with your camera...I'm like "It may be too late these forum folks are going to lynch me lol"

Why that color..? Because it's not too flashy but conservative and sleek. Plus it just happened to be what they had..I had my mind set on black... but this one had a sorta unique factor to it....that and the other Z'S were manual lol

I doubt the sunroof will hit the hatch when both are open.

It doesn't look THAT normal, especially from the inside as the buttons aren't factory style or like G35's.

The seats are probably aftermarket if they have stripes, as factory ones don't have those.

Glowing Z emblems? No.. Rims? Yes.. Navi? If you want/need it..

Auto? .......................................alrite...

Yea the ones that you attach to the Z emblems on the side with lights underneath.

Then some rims.

Finally a navigation,

Maybe a hint of tint on the windows!

And not really being around the Z<ALOT> the sunroof seems normal...and the quality seems very good.
