  1. So I ordered some of the 3M wrap mentioned above and with the help of fellow Zed bro fxn we went to work on wrapping my damaged window control panel. I bought the car a week an a half ago and this was the worst cosmetic damage. Here's how it went...

     

    The panel after we eventually got it out the car... wasn't fun :thumbdown: as you can see the soft rubber was heavily chipped.

    Two and a half hours later we had wrapped our first thing ever! Very happy with the results, its not perfect but a huge improvement.

    Then back in the car :thumbs:

    Passenger door panel next! Does anyone know of an easy way to wrap the clip button on the center console lid? It's made of the same shoddy soft rubber and is similarly chipped.

  2. Hi all,

     

    I've now had my Zed for one week and I've got to say it's just awesome, having driven an RX-8 for 3 years I wasn't expecting such a huge difference but the Zed just feels so much smoother, immensely more responsive and substantially faster! teeth.gif

     

    So.... mods. I never really bothered with the RX but I'm showing early symptoms of zeditis already...

     

    Here are the pics so far. Hat tip to Steve 350z for getting bits over to me so quick thumbs.gif

     

    Full detail and new stubby aerial fitted.

    Time to carry on down the slippery slope...

     

    Cheers.

  3. Ebay... 3M Matt Black vinyl (£14 for 1.5m x 50 CM), exactly what I'll be doing to mine soon.

     

    If that doesn't work I'll sand / paint but makes more sense to do a no damage repair first.

     

    Just ordered this for my Zeds window control door trim, anyone got pics of the finish it gives?

  4. Hi all,

     

    Just about to start the hunt for my first 350, a close friend of mine (fxn) purchased his today. I've been driving/drifting around an RX-8 for the last 3 years and as fun as it's been it's time for a change. My first car was a Nissan so I'm looking forward to coming home :)

     

    Anyway, time to continue the search! Look forward to chatting to you all an maybe see some of you at a meet in the area when I find my zed.

     

     

    Cheers,

    LH
