The shadow chrome REALLY works well on those lips. Despite being darker than the silver centres, on the car they give the illusion of a mirror like finish. A very good alternative to a polished lip with or without a lacquered finish. And deffo a lot less fragile to our winters! Me likey a lot.

Nice clear footage there. Those drivers were very lucky indeed not to have collided.

If ever there was a doubt that sunset orange was one of the best colours for a zed...... THERE'S NONE NOW!

Getting a new one is all well and good. BUT YOU LOSE HALF ON THE TRADE IN:-(

Corruption aside, I was shocked at how uncoordinated the police were. I've seen primary school kids with better discipline and coordination

What a result. Always had a secret desire to do something similar as a hobby. Buy an old black motor, give it a good machining/polish and wow prospective buyers into parting with their cash. Good luck with your journey into a C Class.

Nice plates........supporting the club too at the bottom......good man -
I should have titled the thread MY ZED (and the forum) KEEPS ME SANE I may not post much.....but have a good read through at the end of the day. Always nice to know fellow Zedheads are but a click away in the vapours of the web
-
Very nice......looks like a proffessional finish

Life sucks at the moment. Home is mad and a mess. Work is mad and a mess. BUT WHEN I GET IN THE ZED FOR THE DAILY COMMUTE......IT'S ALL GOOD AGAIN! It's my sanctuary where I can keep it clean and kiddyclutter free, stick on some tunes and forget about all the shite going on.

Saw a disturbing documentary on Ch5 today at 8.00pm about Robert Black. A sick serial killer of little girls. Finally caught in 1990 near Scotland when a witness finally saw him bundle a 6yr old girl into his car. They phoned the police who sent patrols searching for his van. A policeman recognised his van as he doubled back out of the area. On searching the back of his van found a 6yr old girl gagged and stuffed in a sleeping bag after having been abused. What was even more horrific was IT WAS THE POLICEMAN'S OWN DAUGHTER! How the hell he managed to control himself and not pummel the evil **** to a pulp there and then I don't know Guys like this deserve a punishment along the lines of the film "law abiding citizen" etc

Ahhhh, wouldn't it be great if this was on the options list along with "avoid motorways" etc Do any of you think something like this may eventually be possible? Maybe at least "route with the least speed bumps". Or maybe this is as impossible as "route without potholes" Got a wedding to go to just south of London. After seeing the muddy roads of another members "adventures" it left me wanting for extra functions on my satnav Looking forward to the drive. It's been over a year since I've gone for a long drive in the ZED

If you ask me, the spectators are braver/crazier than the drivers!

Zed is called "DIE LOWW" This is Cantonese for big brother, often used by triads when referring to the big boss. The black and white mini is named after wife's panda teddy...PADDY.

Damn.....that's a bit of bad news especially after being so careful in looking after the Volk's. I hope you find a cure without going through the expense of a refurb. If all else fails, before you go for a refurb you could try those impregnated sponges that JML and the like sell. I used some on my neighbours car where Chipsaway oversprayed a panel trapping dust underneath too! I have read similar stories on how fragile the lips are on my LMGT4's. So much so, for the past 5 years I only clean them with a running hose and a MF cloth. Then every couple months use a sealant with built in cleansers to remove any ingrained dirt and add protection. Good luck Chris.

Bring back the good old punishment......"an eye for an eye" Anyone found carving into a man's ride with a key should be payed back with a carving ON THEIR FACE! Better still, let us carve the words "I keyed a car" across their face. Sorry for the extremeness but I'm having rage issues lately:(

My bum gets a toasting as well as my back. The leather takes longer to heat up than fabric heated seats but does get warm on bum and back.

Paint Shield: G-Techniq C1 Hydrophobic Crystal Laquer
HEADPHONES replied to Christian350z's topic in Car Detailing
I put a coat of C1.5 on the Zed beginning of September. Washed it yesterday and the beading is still tight. Lasting much longer than the Collinite wax I used to have. Dosn't feel as slick/slippery though. C1 gives even greater durability than C1.5 but needs a lot more prep with an IPA wipedown and also I think I read that the coating needs 2 days to cure "without touching water!". I'm happy with the C1.5, but would switch back to wax in a heartbeat when I have more time to detail as I miss that slickness you get for the first few weeks:(. -
How much do you miss washing your car?
HEADPHONES replied to The Bounty Bar Kid's topic in Off Topic Discussion
In the years B.C (before children) I used to treat my baby to the full monty every month or so with a wash every week. Nothing could beat caressing the paint near the door handles after a good waxing. The slippery slick feeling as my fingertips gently brushed against the paint. All smooth and glasslike sparking off signals of delight up my arm, to the back of my neck all the way to my brain giving a warm buzzing feeling. After a light shower......admiring the little beads of water on her......which would sometimes trickle down her flanks drawing my gaze across her bodywork as it did so accentuating her luscious curves. I've no idea why my wife says I have an unhealthy obsession with the Zed :b I now try and spend as much time as possible with my two little'uns. Switched from wax to sealants from Gtechniq which is still beading great since September! Wash every 1-2 weeks at night when kids asleep. CAN'T BEAT A WELL CLEANED CAR.......IT'S LIKE GETTING A BRAND NEW CAR! -
There is an app or a software setting to help with the broken HOME button. My boss was showing me his iPhone 4. His HOME button bust ages ago and he now has one that appears on the screen when he presses any other button. I'm sure if you search around you might find someway of doing this. If not let me know and I'll ask my boss later.

Wow! Man did well to stand after that.

Happy birthday!

Feeling your pain JEMAN. Your sunset zed is GLOWING in that last pic. Makes you understand why Nissan chose it as their signature colour. Always nice to see pics of fellow sunset zeds
