After 17 years of ownership decided my Z needed a front lip. Am pretty damn happy with the result and wonder what the hell took me so long.

Yeah, Shawn, what took you so long to get the same as mine? Ahem... Laff....

And if Mark gets the same, it'll be a true "Bay Area, represent!" Hahaha!

But yeah, the thing is an aerodynamic nothing. Thought it looked decent... small, unobtrusive comparatively. I'll probably take it off one day when I bring my car home (living in friend's driveway). Reinstall my Track version front underspoiler.

But I gotta tell ya, there is no known vaccine and the only cure is reading ALL 9-thou-something posts. The few good ones and ALL the bad ones. At last count good:bad ratio was ~1:9000.

Not even going to ask "So, you had nothing else to do last night?"

The backup camera video feed and power have been routed along the left side of the Z to the dashboard (following the wiring harness of the car). And I finished preparing the wiring connections between the amplifier and the headunit (more detail here: https://my350z.com/forum/audio-build...l#post11083625).

The subwoofer is now in position and connected. Still wiring in the front half of the car to complete and then reinstall the interior and seats. More detail here: https://my350z.com/forum/audio-build...l#post11083681

A few things were finished up today:
1) The stereo installation is complete, detail here: https://my350z.com/forum/audio-build...l#post11083681

2) The backup camera is working great, along with the manual override switch I wired in


And,

3) I finally have my TPMS working properly, after wiring up a push-button switch and generic connector to the TPMS reset wire behind the dash. When needed, I can plug in the button harness and re-connect the sensors! Thanks for all the good advice in this post about the TPMS system: https://my350z.com/forum/brakes-and-...ml#post8431555
