    Carbon Wrap?

    I have a wrapped roof. Not trying to pass it off as real carbon or anything. I like it, and if I stop liking it, I can easily remove it.
  2. New wheels are these. Just a test fit on the rear. Still need tyres for the fronts and also spacers for front to clear Brembo's. 20mm I believe. Someone correct me if I'm wrong!! Excited is an understatement !!!
  3. DING DING DING. we have a winner. 10 internets to JetSet. An absolute gorgeous car!!!
  4. http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/36086-show-off-your-ebisu-kuro-03-09-350z/ Ebisu and Kuro are black
  5. Cheers. Not an MG. Bit more prestige, this one
  6. Diffuser will go on when I go more low and balance the look with a front splitter
  7. So these goodies arrived in the post. Went ahead with fitting them. No issues with fitting at all. But I did feel if they had been pre drilled, it would have been even easier to install. If they were pre drilled, they could be the new 'stubby' mod! Another... Guess what car is in the reflection! New steering wheel fitted, Here she is. Black alcantara, red stitch with red centre line at 12 o'clock. I absolutely love it!. Its my favourite mod and favourite part of the car. A couple of pics from dodgy angles. (also got bored on day and carbon wrapped the rear strut cover) Lending a helping hand, well finger. Not sure if he doesn t like me, or doesn t like the wheel! Impossible, he must not like me.
  8. I have no idea. I was thinking of a truly stupid setup to do later in the year. Extremely deep dish and concave. The rears are 18x11 -30 offset and fronts are 18x10 -5 offset. Would be very expensive. Link to said wheels, http://www.jdmdistro.com/shop/18-wheels/ssr-leon-hardiritt-orden-2/ Please someone, with bigger balls than me, do this!! I really want to see them on a 350! The new wheels going on at the end of the week (hopefully) are, in my opinion, the best looking wheels for a 350. Really want to get them on for the Falcon meet and BBQ on Sunday.
  9. Just a little update from the weekend, I really needed to fit new brakes. I was thinking some drilled and/or grooved discs and ebc stuff pads. Talked to Lee at Falcon and he got me some Pagid discs and pads. Old ones off New ones on. I've been toying with the idea of new wheels for a while. I told Lee in a joking way, he needs to source some wheels for me. 2 mins later he brought out a rear for me. I tried it on, loved it. I just need tyres for the fronts, spacers and some new nuts. Heres a teaser. Can anyone guess what they are? Standard 18" ray is on the ground. Test fit new wheel is on. It is 19x10
  10. Just go for it. You wont regret it. I've done London to Edinburgh a few times. The 350 is a nice GT car, easy on the motorways and fun when you drive 'spirited' on the B-roads
  11. oem only for rear lights!!
  12. I got mine from him too. I have a few plans. Already purchased, but not yet fitted, side steps, rear diffuser, H&R springs, re-trimmed steering wheel, new discs and pads. I'll get some stuff done tomorrow. Future purchases will be stillen front lip. and possibly later in the year some awesome rare wheels
  13. My knob arrived and I decided to fit a new gear gaitor while I was at it. Found some black bride material. Already stitched into a gear gaitor shape from Ireland. Black Tomei knob, Black gaitor. Thought it was nice and subtle. Didnt cut the gaitor down at all as I like the oversized look. After a wash. Just got to take pics some times some days, A couple weeks ago I went to Its a Driftlife unit, where coops is a driver. I managed to get their vinyl guy to wrap my roof. I was spoilt for choice. He had hundreds of different colours available. He even had snake skin I went for a carbon wrap. I know some people don't like carbon wrap, as it 'adds weight' and its supposed to look like you're saving weight. But I like it and that's all that matters. I came across a boot divider. Everyone must have one by now!? Fitted that. Also fitted my Carbon Bride cuga/vorga seat on Bride seat rail from the states which took a long time to get here. No photos of fitting it. I'm in two minds of selling it and returning to standard. I love the seat, it looks the sh!t, and when it first went in, hugged me perfectly. Without trying to sound vain or anything, I've got quite wide from working out in the gym, and I am slowly out growing it. New lights, just because. Got the boot light and also the sunvisor mirror lights. (no pics, we know what they look like) I noticed one night they kind of stay on when not in use!?? Do they all do that?
  14. Thought I'd play about with some plasti dip. (Yes I am an ipad w@nker. My phone was broken)
  15. First proper mod to do was the exhaust. I drove to a friends, and we done it all on his driveway. I'll let the photos do the talking. Before, After, Berks were fun to do. I fitted a used japspeed k1 for loudness. Came out the gym one day. no one else in the car park, so i though why not.
  16. A couple of months later I sourced a 350 boot mat. I was sent this, The company I bought it from said, they do not stock and sell roadster mats. After sending them the photo, they agreed their delivery driver will pick up this one and swap to the coupe mat. Happy days. I also bought some Berk HFC and a cobra Y pipe. After a few weeks delivery from japan, these turned up. I love them fitted Found a zed friend on camp. Blue HR. Always kept clean. For some reason, this happened. I Pm'd tarmac straight away for a replacement knob.
  17. Hello. My name is Lachlan. Originally from Edinburgh, but move about UK quite frequently due to being in the military. Currently based in Bedfordshire. I own a 2006 Black Facelift 350z I am a good friend of Ryan Cooper, (carboncoops, If you old lot can remember him?!) and through him I met Lee (R35Lee). Those many years ago, I knew I would own one. While I was abroad on Det 2013, I was constantly looking at 350's for sale. I knew I needed to have one. I arranged to view a few the day after I landed back in UK. Two people cancelled while I was en-route back. Frantically searching the internets, I refreshed the pistonheads 350z for sale page. A brand new listing of a facelift in black with black leather and satnav, with standard miles. Exactly what I was after, in my price range. I looked at the location, and news got better, he was 30mins away from me. I rang him up straight away to say I was on my way to view. We chatted for a bit and scheduled to view the next morning, first thing. (How was I supposed to sleep that night) The guy selling was a fantastic bloke to deal with. We chatted for a bit, and realised we went to the same school (a few years different) and grew up near each other. The car was immaculate. No modifications what so ever. Absolutely every piece of paper and history was present. More chatting, some tea and a deal was made. I was extremely excited to finally own a 350z. First thing I did when I got home was order a K&N panel filter and an rdx stubby. Any way onto the photos. First mod, Goodbye whip, First photo, after having it a couple days.
  18. Have you seen/heard the Exoticspeed systems from Canada? I'm still thinking about getting one to replace my K1
