Pretty.
I've never seen a "frost" in person. Is it really close to white, or is it more light grey? Looks very pretty in the picture.

I have 2 quick questions:
1) This gear grinding problem, I'm trying to avoid. I fully engage the clutch and up/downshift slowly to avoid gear grinding but it happens a few times while im driving. How do I avoid this or what can I do? Is it going to affect the tranny?
2) I only have 200 miles on my Z so far and I have been fairly reasonable in keeping my RPM from jumping over 3.5k. About 2 or 3 times I've jumped a little over 4. Horrible mistake? or just try not to rev over 4 until Break in.
Thanks.
