Fluid Caps Question
Just curious if the blue on the blue Z logo fluid caps that zeetoys.com sells matches the blue on the brackets of the Cusco front strut bar? Just trying to keep everything the same color, but can't tell by photos if the color is the same.

a plug i found at Canadian tire in the automotive section. its a metal plug that has teeth on the bottom that you can fold from underneath the hatch. i used silicon to seal it. and i also plasti dipped it black.

i wrapped my handles with carbon vinyl. wasnt easy but with some patience it worked. any edges that shown silver, i used a small thin paint brush and filled them in with plasti dip.

Not 100% sure I want to install these. Need to find a more flush fitting ball joint with shorter stem.

What happened to you wrapping it blue? Also, what kind of side skirts do you have and where can I get some?

After I finish up modding the V2 front bumper and these mirrors I'll start changing up the wrap. The sides are custom fit Chargespeed off the STI.

Do you paint those bumpers before you wrap them? Just wondering about the adhesion.

Urethane primer and wet sand until super smooth.

1/2 way done with detailing a few parts, just waiting for the driveway to dry so I can start using my Porter Cable
Didn't want to electrocute myself so I am just taking a rest in between

Just claybar'd and waxed my Z after buying it, the car must have sat for a year or two because it felt like sand paper rubbing my hand against it.

Beautiful Z, get clear turn signal bulbs and it'd be perfect.

Nope, they actually make the car look more uniform.
