Not happy with my Z
I woke up in the middle of the night to this music getting louder, then softer, then louder again. I went into my living room and realized that my Tamiya 1:24 350Z bose system had turned on...it sounded terrible!
As I got a pen to try and stick in there to turn it off, I noticed some condensation on the front headlights! WTF!!! I guess I didn't super glue them good enough.
To top off my night, my dog must have pissed on the model, because when I opened the little doors- water came pouring out that had gathered on the kickplates.
I pushed the model a couple feet away to wipe up the **** and heard this awful rattling coming from the passenger side- must be either the seatbelt or vanity mirror.
Long story short- I broke it into pieces when I tried to shove my golf bag into it. That's when I picked up a piece of the hood to save, until I saw the orange peel!!!!!!!!! F*!# THIS CAR!
Good news- I didn't have to put in a front license plate or that damn antenna!!!

I knew I'd forget something...
no rattle because I got the AT...even though all my friends with 6MT Tamiya's made fun of me! That was after they scolded me for getting Chrome Silver, saying it was a dime a dozen. I tried to tell them that it's timeless and that 10 years from now...

Of course!
I wouldn't want my passenger to get between my legs with a flashlight and realize that they're just 'sort-of aluminum drilled covers'...how embarrasing!

Don't forget to latch your passenger seatbelt on the passenger seat clip. Be careful not to hit the heated seats button with your elbow either. And install a 3m shielding on the front to protect from chips on the ceap paint.

It really sucks that I crushed the car with my golf bag, because 10 nissan engineers were flying in from LA to try and figure out why the gas cover wasn't flush!
great post
