Default Long Time Lurker, first time posting

Hey guys, started lurking on this site back in 2012 when I first bought my Z. I've told myself I'd keep it stock, and did mostly for about 7 years (thanks to buying a house mainly ha), but the itch is back and I cant help myself. I'll still mostly stick to the search button but hopefully you guys don't mind helping me out when I have a question in the future.

2012, when I first brought the z home




2019, as it currently sits


This winter, the car is getting drop, new brakes, new rims, and well see what else I have time/budget for. Thanks for looking

Welcome to the board even though you have been around for a long time. Totally agree there is alot of info with searching. I did the same for about 6 months before posting. Great looking car and of course my favorite color. Is that the VIS hatch? Eventually considering getting the one with the built in spoiler eventually.

yes sir, I consider getting that hatch at first but certain angles of the spoiler i didn't like with the lines of our cars. That's my preference though. The fitment of the hatch is a A+ in my book. There's a small imperfection by the driver side quarter window, looks like it happen when it was taken out of the mold, but thats my only gripe with it. I also have the terminator GT hood from VIS and i'm happy with that as well.

For weight purposes, will probably never change my hood. There are a few hood vents that look nice but would also make it harder to keep the engine clean. Planning on doing more engine bay dress up this coming year after i get my z1 undersheild and new fender liners.
