Default New Owner of a Previously Enjoyed 2004 350Z

Hello:
Just new to the forum. I just bought a 2004 base 350Z with 107k miles for $7.5k. A fair deal as the inspection turned no oil leaks or exhaust leaks.





I'm in Hawaii! Anyone know of a good Z garage in Honolulu? I

Thanks!

Welcome and congratulation!
I suppose it's a fair price, low miles. You're driving AT/MT?

I like that it's stock, you're winning in my book over those with riced mods.
What caught my attention is that black mudguard, though.

It's a manual. Pain in stop and go but fun otherwise.

Welcome and congrats... Nice. I never liked the look of mud flaps on my Z, so I took them off.

Happen to have pics of the car with the mudflaps taken off? one of mine looks pretty rough. was that way when i bought it. thinking about just taking it off rather than trying to replace

I'm fairly certain you guys are mistaken. They're called "mudguard" but do correct me if so.

Not at the moment, but all you have to do is Google 350Z and there it is.. without mud flaps.

I don't know about that.. I call them mud flaps because it's such a generalized term for that part, plus people immediately know what you're referring to. I could probably say mud ''anything'', and people will eventually narrow it down to those.

Thanks, should have done that to start with. Didn't realize how common it was to remove them.

Well, having an EVO X in the garage next to the Z, I can see the obvious differences between the two. No worries, I'm just being too specific on name pieces.
