Most molds are all glass. atleast glass can be worked with, but only a good body guy can cut and relay glass. You have to kittyhair all the edges too.
I would def recommend taking it to a reputable shop.

Anyone know a car wash with low clearance around the Twin Cities? I got my Nismo yesterday, but it is covered in salt from the ride on the trailer over here. I know that the Downtown in St. Paul and Perfect10 in Brooklyn Park will do hand washes, but I wanted to see if anyone knows one that would have an undercarriage wash too.
Now a days I bought a 37 but don't drive it in winter. Sits in the heated garage

Oh, you single guys have all the time in the world.
I figure I'll be doing something to the car probably next month when I have to order stuff.

Haha yea, project car....?
So, after all means of ingenuity, used magnet, pulled out unthreaded plug...hoped for best, most ceramic still lodged on side, sent eagle claw grabber, equipped w plenty o CLAY on it, spun it around and got "almost all" but think small shard fell into piston, maybe the size of pencil tip, f'in-ay...so sweet lil ceramic smell, tiny knock, and it cleared.....still feel it needs to be burnt up,93octane here i come, and hope it glies out!i do have a monster exhaust!!![Smilie](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)
But, as for all, they were f'in oem plugs w 174k, phuk, even if i blow out a cylinder its gotta be better than the 174k oem ones......which for frame of reference the first spark plugs used in aviation lasted 50-250 miles, so BE GRATEFUL I suppose!

Damn, Eric. That's alot of miles on the plugs. I'm sure the car feels like it runs better now.
Greg, I'm still alive. Think she knows?![Big Grin](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
I kinda like the Stillen stage 2 kit. The hood sucks, but w/e.

Or I could save my money for the S30. Or buy some guns. Or go on an exotic vacation.
