It probably came painted.

You can order those online at some places and you just put in your color code.

If those springs are around for another week or so.....I guess I could check on them.

Did they change the format of the site ?

My postings are different with everything on top instead of the left side.

Travis, the spoiler is from eBay It came painted and matches well. Search oem 350z spoilers. I think the company was autopartsgear. It was 150 shipped. There are some others for a little less that might be the same. This sounded like a replica of a oem but it might have a little more angle. Not sure without being next to one. Either way I am happy with it.

Most of the clubs recommend a DOT & Snell rating of at least 2005....but it will soon be raised to a Snell rating of 2010 very soon.

I would search CL in the Motorcycle section....I got mine for $40....it is Dot & Snell 2005

Dude you've borrowed my extra helmet before.

It's like putting on a dirty pair of underwear....it's not that bad once its on and your wearing them !

My helmet was brand new...well maybe it was worn like once or twice from the person.

Lol, you sure you're not thinking of Travis? JK, Travis.

MW is far, though, and I need to save money as well. Decisions decisions..

Never been drifting or even to an event to watch. I might go, we'll see. I don't know how the wheel situation is going to work out, though... I'd need to take 4 extra.
