My copy of The Run and my touch up paint took about 10 days from Courtesy Nissan.

Watch The Run a few times, can't say I was that impressed by the main feature; the best view is looking back from the "chase" car at the featured car, the sense of speed is much more impressive even if it's the car's worst aspect.

For me the best part of the DVD wasn't the sequence through Prague, but one of the extras - "Z Watching".

Grrrr....rang Courtesyparts tonight , they processed my order without dispatching ?????? Order included The Run, so I gotta wait another 10 days before I see it...will watch all bits and let you know

Veilside - think you bought the horns (so to speak) why did you go for them?

Jez -

Sorry to hear about that - They have been superb with all the bits that I've ordered

Only thing that is outstanding from my orders are the "Z" Emblems for the Front / Rear - but I knew that before I ordered, because the first ones aren't due from manufacture until the end of this month. They have even tagged some other bits on to the order for me, that I've only just ordered, to save on the shipping cost.

Yes, I've got the horn(s) [ooh, er missus] - just liked them really...
I know no one will see them, but they look nicer than the OEM black plastic ones. And I know they're there

Giles,

I'm just about to order 'The Run' from Courtesy Nissan and was wondering if you have received your badges yet, if so, are they good quality, also are they the adhesive backed type or do they fit into holes in the bumper and tailgate?

Had an email today, from Courtesy Parts, which says that they are expecting the Z Emblems any day now...

...as & when they arrive I'll post pics

They are shipping them over with some Navi Control Unit mounts & the trim piece for around the Navi Unit (future plans indeed)

No problem

Believe it or not we are still waiting for the first shipment of UK specification cars to be delivered (should be soon)

In the meantime you can check out my plans at http://veilside.mysite.freeserve.com/index.htm

Yep, still waiting... only benefit to this wait is that I am still gaining interest on the deposit I have saved up to date

But that is the only benefit really... still waiting...
