I bought myself a Japspeed K2 exhaust which although not needed at the moment will be needed pretty soon as i'm currently running the stock one which is starting to rust through on the backbox itself and also by the flange (a notorious place for them to rot). So I'm pre-empting failure but won't put it on until they stop salting the roads. Thats what i've done for my Zed today.

I picked up the Z hatch finisher I ordered at Nissan and installed that. The original one had a crack in it. And those plastics on the rear strut bar can be a real pain in the, well you know.

I used Blue Magic Headlight Lens Restore on each light first. Then used Meguiars Mirror Glaze Clear Plastic Polish.

Or you can water sand headlights with 2000 grit and just buff it with rubbing compound then glaze with glaze pad will look new

Finally got all my interior back together. Everything is new. Looks like it's fresh out the factory.
I'll post pics after I clean the car. Not in the mood.
