Default Finished my 2007 350z enthusiast!

Just wanted to introduce myself to the forums. Glad that I found a place where everybody loves z cars. I bought this car about 7 months ago. It was completely totaled, but I was able to bring it back to life. Here she is!

Very nice!

Do you have any pictures of the original condition when you first got it?

What caused it to be totaled? that rear damage doesn't look TOO bad and if it was a front collision, wouldn't there be damage to the engine bay?? Idk.

Either way, welcome to the forum and enjoy responsibly so it doesn't suffer the same fate twice!

Meguiars actually sells this stuff at Autozone where you apply and add a heat gun to it and it pulls and derusts the whole area enough to be sanded. Probably what he used.

I'm not sure what happened. I bought it off iaai.com as a total. It looked to me that it was hit on the front passenger side and then spun around. No damage to the engine bay. Maybe they hit a guard rail idk either. There was some frame damage...fixed on a frame rack in about an hour. Basically the strut bar saved this car from total obliteration.

And don't worry, I treat this thing like a newborn baby
