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.

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.

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

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.

Did the fatmat helped reduce the road noise?
