Hey guys, I just bought my 2005 350z last Friday. It's been fun so far, can't wait for summer. Its the base model with a 6MT. It's Dayton Blue.
It has 89,200 miles. Its originally from AZ and never driven in snow. The underneath is spotless. It has some paint chips on the bumper and hood. Overall the car is probably 7.5/10. I got a great deal on it so I had to jump. I'd bet I'm the only z owner within a 100 mile radius LOL.

First thing I have planned is 19" rims. The guys gave me a bra cover, car cover, OEM bumper, and 4 19" GT-7 Volk Racing rims but they are damaged and for sale. See this thread for more info.

Here is a pic after the 3 hour drive home so its very dirty. It has been washed since

 

congrats and welcome. may i recommend removing that cheap ebay lip

 

Thanks and yeah... I actually don't mind it. I don't like how it was attached though. Looks like dry wall screws lol.

 

Nice buy! Love the daytona blue, I would recommend picking up a stock replacement lip, very in-expensive.

They are around $292 from nissan, i picked one up myself for that price!

Thanks man! In the description it says "Exclude Manual Tranny / Nismo 07-08 model" Mine is a 6 speed manual so that makes me think it wont work.
Also, why don't you guys like the one on there?

 

I almost the one on there. Welcome. Nice Z.

 

Thanks man. Took me a second to realize what you were getting at haha.

 

My Z is a 6MT as well, it looks the exact same as the lip that was on mine. I took mine off due to it looking very worn and needed to be replaced. The part where it says "(Exclude Manual Tranny / Nismo 07-08 model)" means just the NISMO Edition in general since it has different body features and isn't compatible. Should work perfect.

 

Nice pick up! i actually like the lip, but i just think it will looks a lot cleaner if you color match your body color. May i ask what type of 19 inch wheels are you interested in? I think a set of semi gloss gunmetal super deep concave Forgestar F14 will looks sick on your car!

 

Welcome to MY350Z.

 

Thanks man, I do like those rims but I think I want mine to have a lip.

Thanks!!

 

welcome and congrats

 

Saying from your neighbors just north of you.

What general part of Iowa are you at?

 

Hello to you too
I'm from a small town called Humboldt. You?

 

St Paul suburbs.

 

Nice! I picked her up from Farmington.

 

Wow, that's not too far from where I live. It's like 2 suburbs over. I guess there's one in every 'burb.

 

What's up IOWA OWNER!? I'm an Iowan by reputation, but a SoCal Kid by LOCATION! Actually, I will be moving to Cedar Rapids, IA at the beginning of May Gonna miss So Cal something fierce I know that, but I'm getting out of the military in May and right now, the gf got a job in CR, so unless I find a hefty mid 5 figure job in So Cal or So Missouri, IA will be my home again for a year or two.

I'll be a couple hours from Humboldt, but that doesn't mean we can't go to Z fest in branson as a caravan!!!

Love the Daytona Blue, minus the snow grime... Welcome to the boards

 

Oh nice! Probably a few up there. I usually find the best deals there.

Nice man! So you are originally from Iowa? What part?! CR isn't terribly far. I'm in the Waterloo area once in a while. So Cal would be awesome man. You're coming back to corn fields lol.
When is the Z fest in Branson?!?!? I would love to caravan down haha.

 

I am originally from ia, I joined the military in 2005 and now im getting out. I want to move to Southern Missouri because the weather is more mild. Im not sure when Z fest is, but id be down to go! I gotta get a job somewhere before I start making super future plans.
