Plenum came from Performance Nissan, it was $330 for the polished plenum plus a $200 refundable core charge. Also came with new gasket and TB bolts.
Got the hoses from Vivid Racing, for $164 shipped. I have since seen them cheaper, check forum GB's. You have to remove the under engine cover, drain fluid (about 1.5 gallons) remove old and install new hoses, fill fluid (using distilled water and coolant) to top, gently squeeze hoses to work out air bubbles, close system start car and warm up, run heater at max, let cool, top off, repeat 2 or 3 times. Works great. Click on photo below, see arrow , this clamp took 30 minutes to force on. I would try a larger clamp if you can find one. Since Samco hoses are slightly larger dia. than stock.

The grounding kit is blue with a silver sheath, need to be up close to see it, its kinda subtle.
Still deciding about the engine cover
Thanks for the comments.

Those both look really good! Nice choice of color--goes well with a silver or white IMO.
I got Burnt Orange myself this week, you can see them here

I paid $525, but since a lot of people are interested, they agreed to a group-buy price of $500 INSTALLED! This is great for SoCal members, and you can add yourself by replying to the above link (350zmotoring), or a new thread was started here (my350z):

Got the Seats from Classic Soft Trim, installer found on their website in Addison, Il. $950 w/ tax installed, Medium Red w/ Perforated Inserts.
Polished Strut Bar ($99 on Closeout) and Polished Plenum came from Performance Nissan.
I think the blues hoses go well with the polished Aluminum and Blue pop charger, but the red would probably go well also.
