Default My New Black Beauty!!!

Well ladies and gentleman here she is. I picked her up about 3 weeks ago in Virginia, but we are now in New Mexico. I would have had pictures up on here the day of pick up or a day or so afterwards, but I have been in the process of relocating to New Mexico and things have been so busy for me.

Well I am now settled in NM and finally took a few quick snaps while the sun was setting. I will try to get better pics, but I guess these will do for now.

Enjoy.

I'm pretty sure he put them on. Congrats man. I would put a clear bra on or something with all wind and rocks around there. Also, loose the front plates if you can.

funny story......

i bought the wheels about 2 months before i bought the car b/c i was in iraq for a few months then went straight to afghanistan for a little while. my friend was holding the wheels at his house until i got back. i flew back into the states, went straight from the airport to his house, picked up the wheels, then headed over to the dealership (i bought the car while i was overseas). my plan was to litereally roll out of the dealership with the new wheels on, but since they are after market wheels, dealership policy won't let them install them. just so happen to be a gas station next door that had a shop. so i walked over there, told them that "i just bought a car and have a set of after market wheels i need to throw on......can you put them on for me?"

so finished up the paper work at the dealership, creeped on over next door with the new Z and wheels, slapped on the new shoes and the rest is history.

i owned a 2006 silver alloy z before i went to iraq.......but now that im in New Mexico with my 2007 black z, i have never had so many people comment on my car, staring, or ask questions. its kool, but kinda strange.....just not used to it i guess.

thanks bro...

yeah, i plan on dropping the front plate. ive just been so busy with getting settled here in NM. i still have virginia tags and need to get new mexico tags.

i would like to get a clear bra, but i plan on getting a new front. so i kind of feel it would be a waste of money to get the bra. when i change the front, the only part of the clear bra that will stay is the piece on the hood.

i don't know...we'll see.

thanks again.

oh well....no biggy. i plan on getting a new front end anyways, so i'm not too sour over it.

thanks!

The car didn't come with that license frame kit thing for the grill? The dealer showed it to me when i was looking at an 07 touring yesterday.
