Default I'm bored and don't want to do work so I am posting......

I am bored and should be studying something, but I don't want to. Instead its more fun to think of new ways to spend money. My headlights are kinda starting to fog or something goofy. I don't think its actually "fogging" because I can rub it off it I try hard enough but it comes back. So, I have three options as I see it.

1. Deal with it......
2. Buy the '06 headlights.......or
3. Buy the '07 Z with the new hood and VQ with twin intakes and 306Hp.

Anyway I am bored and this is what I do to entertain my self....

Hmmmmmm...intriguing......or how about keeping your Z and fixin' er up? As far as hoods go, I kinda like that new hood, BUT I have seen some really cool aftermarket ones with scoops and vents that are cooler for $300 to $600. I don't know that I have noticed the "new style" lights, what's different about them?

put money into the z you have, you'll lose more money if you buy a new one.

My lights are going bad too, can't fixem, had an overlay which did'nt help, and thinking about getting a new housing. I rather buy an aftermarket housing, keep my Hids, and install them. I don't know about paying that much for '06s. I'll keep the extra cash for FI, which i hope to do soon, and buy '03s ; might paint them or clear the strips.

How about spending about $9 and get a product called Plastx which you rub on just like wax and it takes the white fog off the lights and makes them just like new!

Then you sucked at it. :E My old headlights did it too, but i got new ones under warranty (unrelated). The plastic polish does the trick though. Also I could go to the dealership anytime and get them polished for free.
