Hey Tommy welcome to the forums! Sadly most of the guys on my350z are located on the east side of the state. However, I do believe there are a couple folks maybe in the grand rapids area.

You can also check out xceedspeed.com which is a local michigan forum, mostly young kids but still some knowledgable ppl.

Welcome!

We are doing a gathering at my house to install some parts. PM me if you are attending. Leave the Green and White at home, it's in the Ann Arbor area. LOL. JK - You can wear Sparty gear.

As for Saturday's meet, start at 11:00 is OK. I need to get my car out of the way so I need part of that morning to get wheels out of storage and get the car down.

PM me if you need an address

That would do it. I think you will be ready for ZdayZ. You need a vacation!

Since the stock calipers are nothing special, I opted to go with black. Painting the OE stock calipers red draws too much attention to it. Now if I pick up some StopTechs, I'll go with Red.

As for the wheels, I went into the shop yesterday with the intention of going with gloss black. Matte Black looks home spray painted. Then I saw a frame that the guy did and I changed colors. I'll leave it a surprise what direction I went. If it comes out well, you will have to see it in person. It'll be safe to say that no one will have a set of wheels like it. (It has me very nervous right now.)
