Left front wheel arch liner 2004 350z coupe I have no idea how this came off, but If you have one let me know how much and where it is. gingrrr@gmail.com

Hi, I've scratched and dented my driver's door. Its an orange driver's side door 2004 coupe. I've never scratched a car in my 20 years of driving and I do it to my Zed - doh! Let me know how much and where it is. Obviously I want it without dents & in good condition. I might consider another colour, because I suppose I could get it sprayed up if it's a good price. Cheers Steve gingrrr@gmail.com

I thought I would cheer myself up, so I went on the above website. I input my car details - I have a stock 350z GT 45,000ish 2004 - purchased a year ago for £15,000 I did not click the options like cruise control, leather heated electric seats as they are standard on my model ( I think that's what they meant ) not "options". They said, we will buy your car for £8,765* ( oh well back to drilling holes in my eyes - - I didn't want to sell it anyhow ) If anyone with a similar 04 GT model with 45000ish miles and good condition, wants to try this but adding the 'standard' GT kit as 'options' please try it and let me know.

I'm going to Croyde/Saunton/Woolacombe this weekend. See you there - looks like it's going to be awful actually http://magicseaweed.com/Saunton-Croyde- ... -Report/7/ Sydney looks ok with 4 grey stars http://magicseaweed.com/Sydney-Bondi-Surf-Report/996/ ( buggers ) My mate just moved to Adelade and bought one of those Skyline things - I think that's the perfect solution actually.

Hmm those windsurfer boards are massive, and heavy - I would not recommend it. I also managed to get a kite surf board and all the associated equipment ( Kite - board - Pump - wetsuit - kitesurfer ) in my car with no problem - maybe you could learn how to kite surf instead - you get much more air and look like a hero! ( I also bought an old wooden kayak off of eBay - 14 foot long ) I don't think that is going to go on my roof somehow - it fitted on my bug though.

PROBLEM SOLVED! Here are some pics of my 350z roofrack. http://www.flickr.com/photos/gingerman/ ... 45/detail/ http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3533/376 ... 33c3_b.jpg I have been to Brittany from Manchester with two surf boards attached to my roof. I also went to Croyde in Devon from London with two surf boards on the roof. I also attach a string to the front towing eye, but suspect it's not needed ? Look on Ebay for a VacuRack - it's great - each sucker can hold 200lbs of weight ( I think that means how much it can suck ) The Commercial http://video.yahoo.com/watch/413086/2397176

I had a play with it in Sketchup the photo the 3dmodel Cool huh - if only you could buy a car that always had cartoon black lines around the edge from whatever angle you looked at it.

heh heh I managed to get one and have a play - but I am not a 3D guy. This is loading the 3DS model into Flash ( which is what I do ) but the model is very detailed so it will make your PC and browser groan. http://www.gingerman.co.uk/labs/350z3d/ I am going to download those other models above now - cheers Leeroy, I could not find the free models.

"Besides these are not oem sizes for the Zed." I have just checked that - oops - thanks for the replies. ( I like the tread pattern though - looks good for the wet - not that I am buying now ) Cheers Steve

Hi Zedders, I saw these tyres on EBAY but have never heard of them. 2 X 265/35/18 WANLI TYRES 2653518 http://tinyurl.com/8r2bau The price seems very good - is this too good to be true - eg are they ok ? Cheers Steve

Hi - was the cover actually part of the competition - it's very dark with no detail. It's not a very good snap. Sorry but that's what I see.

Hi, Has anyone got a 3D model of a 350z? Something like .3ds or Collada format would be great, but anything would do, I just want to have a play with it. ( I have seen that you can buy them, but I just want to play - maybe make a 3D Flash avatar or something ) Thanks Steve

Hi, It's a Sigma lens on a Nikon D50 body - the lens is about £320, you can't get them cheaper really ( which I usually find means it's quite good ). It's a big lump of cash to spend on a lens really. I almost wish it was not a Zoom though, and only had the widest angle, that would make any distortion less, and the quality even better. It's pretty good though I think. Sorry I took so long to reply - I forgot to check the box to subscribe to the post. I just bought Photomatix software to try out some HDR photography ( Where you under and over expose the same shot and combine those images ( 3 minimum ) to create an image where you don't lose any detail in the highlights or dark areas ). It sounds a bit dull, but can make some fantastic effects - I think of it as "super real." Thanks for the great comments. ( I was trained as a graphic designer, I have art directed one car shoot in a photographic studio ( Nissan Micra ) I try to always have a camera on me - so that if I take enough pictures then at least one of them will come out well , I think I can spot a dynamic angle for a shot. My dad is a keen photographer, and also my best mate, so I have learned a lot from them ). I am not a Graphic Designer now, I am a Flash Developer.

I was actually unsportingly hoping Massa's engine would let go. I did not see Hamilton get the trophy because I am having Sunday Tea at my parents and they want to watch The Antiques Roadshow =D. Well done H very exciting and emotional.
