At least now your hoods gonna look much better then it did before.

I just need to wet sand and polish it tomorrow morning. I should have it ready to pick up by 11ish.

I barely added any tint to the clear because I realized the Carbon was really dark on your hood to begin with, its common with Seibon and VIS to have really thick/dark colored carbon, its basically carbon which is used on Airplanes primarily.

Looks good though I'll post pictures of before and after. I think I might be doing a right up of a how-to or something.

Nel, you got time around 5pm tomorrow? Come with me to Autohaus to get my tires mounted and stretch! Then we'll hit up Guppys or Tea Station after.

Btw, got my Z back for the clutch slave cylinder recall. That flywheel noise disappeared, well it's still there but it's alot quieter now. But my clutch still gets stuck 3/4 from the floor after you release, it's going back to WCN

Mikey, yeah comeby tomorrow so you guys can check them out.

I did some massive research too on tire fitments and gathering feedbacks from other guys running these setups. But if this $hit don't work, i'm screwed haha.


Anyways, there's definitely something wrong with my clutch, i'm bringing it back to WCN on saturday morning for sure.

Chris be careful with those POS nissan techs.
When my mechanic put everything back together today he told me that everything was misaligned. Those POS techs probably just slapped your stuff back together too without a second thought.

Mikey, im challenging myself and see how far i can push my luck haha but these wheels are far from crazy. I need more aggressive offsets!

Sadly but true, some techs dont give a damn, thanks for the heads up tho. Ive been holding back to not bring my Z for the recall service but my clutch almost went out last saturday and has gotten worst the next day.

Whats weird tho, my clutch feels nice & firm this morning and doesnt get stuck like i mentioned earlier. Very little flywheel noise and so far gears engages smooth without hesitation. There just might be some airbubbles in the line?

Nel, it shouldnt take that long to mount the tires. Dont worry we'll make it to guppys

haha lol... i know you guys like the crazy offsets and the stretched wheels. i cannot do that. if i did, i know the tires will pop or fly off in the first corner i take. i like the meaty tires, with regular offsets and tucked is good too. hhhaaaaha.

good to hear your clutch feels better this morning. drive it around and tell us how it is.
