Car is still at the Tuning Factory with an electrical issue which has taken them 8 weeks to figure out. I won't say much about them, but since April I've had my car for less than 30 days. Recourse is coming.

I believe I posted in the FI forum back in July about it, but I'm not too concerned what Sharif, Todd and the other main guys in the FI forum think. The're only numbers, which don't mean everything. Driver is most often what counts. ****...before I built my engine and just had the turbos I smoked a lot of cars at real races such (ie) bout 4-5 Z06's (not the new one though), viper GTS, Cobra's etc. It's actually much easier to get your car to move with 445 rwhp than it is with 655. I haven't really had enough time with my car to master the new power and launch/driving techniques. That will have to wait til spring.

Can anyone recommend a quality and 350Z-experienced clear bra installer in the area? The car just got repainted to fix all of the front end road rash, and I want to protect it as best as possible.

I'm in Livonia.

Thanks!

Back in 2004, Bob Reid, onecarguy@twmirr.com did both my FX35 and G35. He works on exotic cars regularly, back then he installed a clear bra on Red Wing's Sergei Fedorov's yellow Ferrari Enzo. So this guy and his company CGM, know what they're doing. He installs Dynashield clear bras. The last phone numbers I have for him are...734-425-1015 & 734-891-0072. I believe he's in Livonia.

Grant, check with Classic Appreciation in Birmingham or Downtown Rochester. They are a good detailing shop and probably do Clear Bras or can recommend someone. I had some limestone deposits from a leaking parking structure cleaned by them on my Audi. http://www.classicappreciation.com/

Also, I can't recommend but I did get a PM from Marco0355 on this site offering Clear Bra installation. Marco, Advanced Mobile Group, (519) 903-0430
I don't know were he is located or if he is any good but it's worth a call.
