Washed my Z for the first time in about 6 months, maybe longer. She was in winter storage, and when I took her out I put a few hundred miles on her. She's looking good now. Going to take her for a spin today since it looks like perfect driving weather.

^^ Probably a better paint job than what I'm experiencing atm.

Had the driver side mirror repainted along with the passenger RQP due to highway debris and rust. The mirror has clearcoat sag and the RQP has dents,specs, and the jamb was not painted. They also were able to damage the rear bumper and taillight during this time.

Carbon fiber front splitters installed... Side splitters will be installed next and currently on the lookout for a rear diffuser.

Ordered SPL solid diff bushings. Bit nervous about sawing the races out, don't want to mar the subframe. Also feel like the rear bushing isn't just going to slide in first time. Should be worth it in the end though.

I'm split between all the ebay parts ziptied front plate and the fact that it looks pretty good. I'll give it a thumbs up.

Haha thanks! I'm trying to make it work without having to break the bank... The front splitters may be pushin' it but I'll rock them until I decide on an aftermarket front bumper.

The zip ties are temporary until my bracket gets here. A cop didn't like it on the windshield... But I try to be a law abiding citizen
