I may well be placing an order for f + r slotted discs only soon mate. Are they in stock?

Tarmac, just to confirm w/brembo means these are for 350s with the brembo brakes?

And do I need to strip paint from the strut brace or can I prepare that and primer and paint on top of the old paint. It's all in good condition.

I'm guessing scissors will be ok. Also while we're on it will I be able to do the strut brace in the same paint or will that get hotter being metal and need high temp paint?

Might be better free hand with some frog tape then. Ill give it a go and let you know if I need anything like that doing. Hopefully be done by next weekend.

I don't have a vinyl cutter so not a DIY thing. Is that something you are able to knock up rich?

I was going to have a go with masking tape, is masking film the same material or is that vinyl based?

If your buying a track edition I can only assume your in the US. I've recently looked into prices for brake discs out there and they are a hell of a lot cheaper in the US than they are here, nearly half the price.

That might not be an option then. Was thinking i might be able to do it by dusting it with the spray cans and do it lighter the further out it was. Maybe ill just do it all solid then. I do like the white and red one in the photos in tht thread.

Surely by the time youve reciever numerous sarcastic answers to that question you could have just googled "creative coatings" and found out for yourself

Like i said. Ive got a carbon one on route to me so the oem one is my spare so ive got notjing to loose.

Got loads of black and white cans, just need to get some red and some clear coat stuff. Halfords it is then or am I better sourcing from somewhere else?

Cancel. I found an old thread on here http://www.350z-uk.com/index.php?showtopic=27776

If you find it could you post it as if it looks gash i wont bother. I havent been able to find a picture. A few on rx8s but no zeds

No worries. Keep us posted

Cool. Cheers mate. May give it a go next time im off work. Obviously ill post my results on here. Successful or not. Is clear coat the same as laquer?

Thought about it but will vinyl not come off with the heat. Alao i wont be able to get the effoect in after with vinyl

I want it to look something like this

Ive got a carbon engine cover on its way to me. Came today but im Sure my postman enjoys carrying stuff away with him as you never hear the bugger knock. But anyways Im looking to paint the old cover andsee how it comes out. I want to do it with a rising sun on it, in red with a black background. It will be offset with the sun in the bottom right quarter. And the red fading as it gets further away. Now my questions are: This looks awesome in my head, how difficult will it be to put pen to paper so to speak and have it look like i want it to? I am a relative novice with this sort of stuff Im not fussed about it being mega smooth so do i still need to sand down the cover first? What sort of paint and laquer will be best to use, does it need to be heat resistant paints? Cheers guys

Also the price isnt all that for a replica and a group buy. A genuine one is $260 (£167 at current conversion) shipped by b2 autodesigns and im sure something could be done to lower the import tax costs.

Id be looking at something like this for that sort of cash http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/mitsubishi/evo-vii--ix/fq-360-evolution-ix-ralliart/1142871

What if I wanted red feet and a black bar, or all black?

Any updates on these mate?

Welcome. In regard courses, it depends what you want. If you just want to be able to cope with power and rear wheel drive, common sense and not driving like a dick (not saying you are a dick btw) is generally a good place to start. Ease yourself into it and you will get use to the car.
