Yeah that's what I hope to do. I work for the state so I'm poor. Your talking to the guy who plastidipped his wheels because he can't afford new ones. Was wondering if there was a quick fix but I guess I'll just sing to myself until tax time

What were you expecting? A '17 370Z with a 3 year/36k mile warranty?
You buy a used car, you buy someone else's issues and live with it or just get rid of it and move on. Jeebuz.....

I like that tarp.. you guys care to see my wish list I plan on doing to my Z? It's not full of rice. Well maybe to you guys but maybe you could at least help me pick quality parts

Put it out there. I think anyone who's read this thread knows you can take a beating and not get all worked up about it. Then may make good - at least halfway serious suggestions. laff.....

Man tough crowd. Honestly speaking, I'm not a fan of plasti dip. It's a good way to make your beautiful car look cheap. But I see where you're coming from. I was in the same situation last summer. I decided to do minor mods that'll make a difference but not hurt the wallet. Last summer I:
- vinyl wrapped the trunk center piece: $30
- vinyl wrapped roof: $50
- vinyl wrap center of emblem: (part of vinyl used for center piece)
- made the orange reflectors red: $1
- double din radio: $20 (already had radio)
- wired reverse camera: already had camera
- carbon fiber license plate cover: $20
- wiper delete: $30 (not seen in picture. Was done after)
- ez lip: $30. (Just bought a splitter to replace it for this summer)

IMO, its better to just save your money and buy something worthwhile down the road. I know you should build you car to whatever you want since it IS your car, but this just looks to be rushed to spend a little cash and deviate from the stock look. Anyway, good luck in the future bro!
