Good work on the wheel wells, I would like to clean mine out too.

How did you get the plenum so clean? I really need to do this.

 

Just wait til you own a Z. You'll see what I mean.

 

I will agree, leather is more luxurious. Some people have asked me why a car that cost $50,000 new does not come with leather, and said that it should.

The reason I bought a track pack is even though leather looks nice I find it way to hot. So I prefer cloth, track pack has no Bose, I wanted to change to aftermarket anyway. The track had the rear spoiler, and I wanted the Brembos, not many 03-05 Z's have Brembos.



I used Castrol super clean to remove the yellow rust proofing. Then I used a metal polish to clean and shine it up. I did it by hand and with a dermal with a polishing wheel. It took awhile but looks so much better.

 

maybe you could do my wheel wells as well, look good, with the wheels and the drop

 

Yes I agree david, the cloth seat are so much better, not to mention the leather seat gets dirty so easily... And Kevin you car looks really nice
Good job cleaning it

 

update on the car, some may have seen in another post

I was looking for some more sound than stock but didn’t want to spend a ton doing it. I have a few other plans for it and I would prefer to spread the money out among various mods not just audio, so this is what I came up with.

This is what I have done so far:
-installed front speakers
-installed rear speakers
-installed deck
-installed 100 sq feet of fat mat
-Installed all audio wiring

What still needs to be done in the spring:
-Build custom sub box
-installed sub
-install amps
-Build custom trim plate/false floor


this is what is going in



fat mat installed



rear speakers and wires installed











front speakers installed




deck installed



2nd glove box

 

looks good but you went a little overkill with all the DYNOMATT under the seats is not needed. What subs are you running anyway that you spent so much doe on dynomat

 

if its that infinity then you went way overkill bro

 

why i say this is because **** is expensive and heavier that a ****

 

it is the infinity, i bought 100sq feet of fatmat for a really good deal so i just used it all. I did everywhere except the roof, because of the sub but mainly to reduce road noise. I found that the z had allot of road noise.

I added around 50 pound of fatmat to the car. The car is a track pack so it should still be lighter than a loaded one. Plus I am a big guy so weight was against me from the beginning anyway.

 

Xerman all i got is respect for you, clean car and you do everything your self. im jelous.

Maybe you can help me install my deck and a sub in march? ill provide beer and transportation

 

I don’t mind lending a hand

 

Good man, just curious, where abouts do you live?

 

Great looking car! Good job on all your mods, looks clean and done right.

 

wow crazy dynomatting thats nuts. Well no reason to buy any lightweight mods now lol...

 

good work kev

 

Jebus that's alot of sound proofing. Nice install though!

 

dude i got the same last numbers of my plate 911

 

Amazing job on the plenum...looks soo shiny, what chemical did you use to get all those grits off??

 

Did the fatmat helped reduce the road noise?
