Loving the color, can't wait to see the finished product.

It was so nice yesterday that I went to pick up the Z and brought her home. Now it's cold and nasty for the week, so I won't be able to drive it until next weekend.

AMSOil 5w30 changed too with a fresh PS-1008 K&N Oil Filter.

I replaced the old leather on both armrests. New leather and a lower alcantara portion. Now it matches my shift boot and handbrake boot.


I've got another project going on right now with my Z. If it doesn't turn out deeply embarrassing I'll post it up.

Yah, just picking up the front bumper
The car is in my garage, waiting to weld the cage in.

Not everyone is into these but installed Louvers the other week.





Also made a install video if curious to see how they went on.

I can't make an opinion on those, sometimes I like them, sometimes I don't. Liking it on ours currently thought.

How did you even find louvers for a 350z?

240Z's had them long before any Camaro did. They actually don't look too bad, though.

How do you clean the glass underneath them when it gets dirty? The old 240Z ones had a hinge at the top and you could flip them up.

Found them on Instagram. Zakustech is who makes them. If anyone is curious just google 350z louvers and you should find there website.

Honestly its a pain to clean the glass. I have to use a small rag to get in between the fins but in the end totally worth it for me.

I'm wondering if there would be a way to use a strong velcro so that you could essentially have a "quick removal" system for when you detail the car. Anybody have opposing thoughts on that idea?

MicVelo

Wow, just two weeks ago as I stared at my "old Z" (my '88) and pondered other period correct add-ons, I wondered "Hmmmm, wonder why no one has brought back louvers to fit on the Z33s...?" Heh heh.

Interesting and fun to see their return. Next big thing?

Then I bring back Bolder Tints...

MicVelo

Hook n' latch won't hold after a little time in the sun (not the hook/latch part, the adhesive that holds the velcro strip to the backlight.) As someone said, the original Shadow louvers had a hinged top and dead latches to hold them down in the rear. One time hardware beats software.

DoctorDray

True. Good call. There's definitely a way to make a hinge/latch attachment, but I don't have the extra funds to mess around with that project right now.
