Tony looks good. Can you take some pics of the mounting blocks? Did you mod the stock ones? That bar would definatley save you in a 5-10 mph crash. Please forward one to North Carolina ASAP, and you can keep my G-Tech.

Looks real good except for the fact that the water squirter is missing on the right side of the pic and the IC piping is missing on the left. Did you have to build custom piping or does it clear the IC pipe and you had to reposition the water squirter tank.

Hi Spaz,

I've talked to Wld350z awhile back and the IC piping is there. There have to be some mods done to the bracket to get this through. The water squirter will need to be repositioned. Also wld350z has taken a 5 lb sledgehammer and without the IC has hit the rebar a couple of time at full swing and it held up. He also had put on the toe hook and was able to lift the car up with it in place.

Spazpilot.. This Bar look's tiny but read Wld350Z specs...

But look closely the Round Shell on the very right of the Picture..

Not Stock... I'll try to get the photo up tonight... Of the device in the front facia area...

I think you will be impressed... Of to the ftp of the server box...

1024x768 of course...

Cheers Amy -

Smile Building Bumper for Greddy TT

A quiet Saturday.. Wld350Z get's out a Mig Welder...





A perfectly good Greddy TT install... except for one thing - nothing between facia and FMIC.


About 10 minutes later..


The focal point is the Weld up plate on the modified B mount


A mig weld tack here... Take tacked bar to work..
And a few day's later



But at the same time... Special mounts are added for this...
