Default Hi New...

Hi i'm new... SO I may ask some noob questions... Just point me to a link or book and i'll figure it out...

So about me... I'm Samantha, and you can find me in the San Jose or Santa Clara area... Well almost...

I bought my Z last night (24 Feb 2008) and I love it... The downside... I am in the Army and I leave for Germany on the 4th... I know why did I buy the car... I can't take it with me... But I will be home soon... Between April and October...

I plan to put the 3M film on it to protect it from rock chips... Not doin the front like a bra... doin the whole bumper, both fenders, and the whole hood, maybe the parts of the car closest to the ground and the rear wheel arch...

Also I hate that anyone can just look into my car or trunk so im going to tint the windows...

Also my dad seems to think it needs an alarm, and i can't love without an ipod hookup... so maybe new alarm and new sound system...

Other then that I am at a loss for this car...

Pics...






i'm really new to import... Give me a dodge and I know what i'm workin with (used to have an SRT4)

so please point me in the right direction...

Welcome to the board.

I just did the front bumper with film, but I did tint all the windows, including the windshield. Nice choice of colors, mine is black too.

hey samantha, welcome and nice car. There are various places that can do tinting i got mine done in fremont. i got a pretty good price on it if you need the phone number on the place let me know. If you get more specific in the mods that you want people can either show you the way or you can look in certain sections to help make your decisions.
im more than happy to help, my dad also leaves for kuwait in april for a year.

SammySJ99 Congratulations on your new Z!

Shortly after purchasing a new car, most people neglect the opportunity to protect their vehicle at its pristine condition. Allowing damage to take place before any action is taken.

It was very wise of you to list "Film Protection" as your 1st modification.
Clearly you want to keep your Z looking as good as possible, but without camouflaging the body with ugly bras or visible tape lines.

I highly recommend Premier Mobile Group for the ultimate protection, with custom cut "Protective Films" and invisible application. They have a huge exotic car clientele, which includes a complete custom wrapped, Bugatti Veyron.

Give them a call, ask for Wilson and tell him you were recommended by another 350Z member.

If decide to go with them, the best complement you will receive, is when others approach your car and tell you that you need a clear-bra installed, simply smile and say "It's already on!"
