Washed my car for the first time this weekend since July 3rd, 2010.

Spent two hours on the exterior alone. Course I have to give my roof special attention that you guys can skip.

As for kits, i wish i had stayed stock front bumper with VS lip painted to match, Nismo sides, and my current rear. my rear right now is Chargespeed Bottomline rear sidecaps and the center diffuser is custom made from a Cobra GT500 (2005+) cut to fit then pop rivited in lol. but my whole front bumper is effed from being so low :-\. woulda been cheaper to replace a lip than a whole front lol.

The **** (yes we're now calling wings "*****") is just the MD62 Megan wing. I didnt want to spend 700+ on a wing that wont be used a lot lol. I really need to pick up a new hatch, but i need a front bumper asap, so thats priority 1.

and yuuuup, you gotta come to "da ville" to see some folks, thats where most of the meets/events are. Im not against going to the arden area or anything tho
lol i feel you on being low, both of my other cars are slammed or were slammed at one point or another...thank god on my maxima i had a lip kit though...

so... i got my hood today. and of ****ing course with my luck... i get sent the WRONG F*CKING HOOD......... Furious as fck, i call intense the second i open the box seeing its completely ****ing wrong (they sent me an 03 hood which WILL NOT FIT with my setup), and i was surprised with the answer. I gave him my info, and looked it up. noticed right away that it was the wrong hood, calls seibon and everything gets straightened out. Company picks up the hood in the morning, i get my new one around friday. Im EXTREMELY happy with how well the guy at IntensePower.com handled the situation, completely took care of everything, and me being the angry short tempered ******* that i am, im actually not that upset now knowing its all being handled. so bittersweet day but its all getting fixed!

Just out of curiosity, what are you guys using for tires (brand/model) around this area? I've been poking around tire sites trying to figure out what might work well around this area for the next time I need to buy some tires. The stock ones wore out faster than I expected last year and I had to jump into a full set of Goodyear Eagle GT's which are ok, but I don't expect to at all put any new ones of those on next time I have to replace something. Decent dry and good wet grip, but way too mushy in corners.

I've been looking at the Conti Extreme DW's http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....ire=445YR8ECDW They seem to be getting good reviews on Tire Rack and though there was only 1 350z review, there were a few G coupe reviews and they all seemed to like the tire as well.

I drive about 2000 miles a month and a lot of that is driving for hours on end. I'd rather not get sick of the beautiful z sound and cops already hate my car so straight pipe would be a bad idea for dding.
