Default jesperanza one more question...

Did you go with 20% tint on all windows? Or did you vary the tint between back and side windows?

Thanks!

I went with 20% all around (sides, port & back).

Thumbs up CS Shots

Here's a shot of my CS with a NISMO Rear Spoiler mounted. It really adds destinction from the other CS's here. Guam is a small island and you're bound to see other 350Z's on the road. While the other guys get a double look, mine gets the long stares and the "check that out" finger pointing action

I'm considering 18" chrome rims. Anyone know of links that have chrome 18" rims that will fit a Base 350Z? I've already checked out Tirerack and Discount Tires; looking for some other sources for comparison and different designs.

Thanks,

Rod-Z-Guam


PS - Not sure how to attach multiple pics on to this message so I'll post two more on separate messages, for your viewing pleasure.

No window grease?! Wow! You are a lucky guy. I've got grease on both windows, and I'm hesitating to get it "fixed" because a lot of Z owners are experiencing more problems after the fix! I'll definitely post some pictures once I get the tinting done. Thanks for all your assistance. I hope the weather clears up for you, soon! From Missouri? I hope you were spared the damaging storms!

One more thing...I noticed you replaced your sub and amp but not the head unit. How does this set up sound? I am so disappointed with the Bose system that my next investment after the tinting will be a sound system, but I can't spend the money some Z owners are sticking into their cars! your solution seems reasonable but also maintains a good sound. Yes?
Yep.. I am very thankful and lucky to have had a problem-free Z so far, and she's up to ~2,000 miles, now.

Luck found me yet again during the storms.. most of the bad stuff was either north or south of my area (Independence.. a few miles from the stadium complex). We did get some pretty heavy rain and some hail, but nothing compared to the surrounding areas. How was it where you are?

Regarding the system.. I think it sounds decent; it added the little extra unf that I wanted. I have my treble set at +5 and my bass set at -1. This seems to quiet the sub a little to let the highs come in (I listen to a lot of rock music..) until I am able to complete the system. The bass is clear and there are no rattles from inside or outside the car. Further, you can hardly tell from the outside that I have a sub (the way I like it.. I'm not out to annoy people with a rattling trunk full of 15" competition subs like some people).

If you have any other questions, I'll try my best to help out. Good luck.

-S

My addition to the CS thread. Had her 3 weeks now. No problems. No window grease, no rattles. I'm even moderately happy with the Bose, sounds decent enough for me, regulates volume pretty good. Happy camper so far.

Default pictures of clear bra?

Any chrome silver owners have clear bras installed that could take pictures of what it looks like on their car? I'm thinking of having it done, but want a better idea of how it will look.

Thanks!
