Op, one question about the line of bolts in the picture below. You can cover them up by getting a new sideskirt right? But if you take off the SS, you'll still see the holes since they drilled into the bare metal of the car?

What happened to your Z was definitely a huge tragedy. But out of that tragedy, one of my favorite Z's was born
I like your taste in modding

Hah! You know, I thought about that...but this is a more compacted version of what happened. Also, this is my very own thread.

Yes, that is correct. However, they'll most likely rust if they're not taken care of. David at Angry Panda welded the holes and painted over the whole thing.
