What a f**ker, ...seriously can't believe that's happened to you after the keying incident. Don't give up as I'm sure there are a few decent people left on this planet, ...just seems none of them live near you. Seriously hope that some "dent master" or similar will be able to sort that. They should be able to get at it from behind the wheel arch I'd think.

Snooze you lose. At least we where both being helpful.

If no luck with Lee spotted these on eBay if they're of any use; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NISSAN-350Z-2003-Front-Wing-With-Hole-LH-Left-Passenger-/400718496056?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item5d4caf0138 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-350z-Passenger-Side-Front-Wing-/171555074160?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item27f17ab070

You know I love that gear knob and I like the 350Z UK sticker as it looks quite subtle on yours. Very nice job mate.

Shhsss Dicky, ...my Mrs has realized so I'm enjoying the peace & quite.

Ok thanks. What about reattaching? Melt it all back together ? Fyi rather than trying to melt it all back together afterwards just get some decent two part epoxy and that will hold it together forever. Like this stuff: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Evo-Stik-Epoxy-Rapid-Resin-Glue-A-New-High-Performance-Epoxy-Adhesive-Araldite-/171462422956?pt=UK_Crafts_Cardmaking_Scrapbooking_Glue_Tape_EH&var=&hash=item27ebf4f1ac

Not saying this is what it is but worth checking the banana arm bushes as this is a common failing point on the 350. Happened on mine and would make a knocking noise when going over bumps & occasionally when turning under load. It's a cheaper & easier fix than the wheel bearings if it does turn out to be that although from what you've described so far it sounds more like a bearing issue. Banana arm bush pictured below fyi.

Looks fantastic newkid and the skulls are a very unique touch.

I bought a suction cup camera mount from eBay which was £5 odd delivered. Tried it using my Sony digital camera which is as heavy as a brick and it didn't fall off even with some spirited driving on a B road. I'd bet a GoPro wouldn't even faze it. It was a similar one to this one which is actually listed for a GoPro which mine wasn't: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Suction-Cup-Mount-For-GoPro-HD-Hero-3-2-Camera-1-4-Thread-Tripod-Mount-Nut-/390776605613?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item5afc19cbad

No surprise as we all know money can't buy you everything, ....good taste being one of those things obviously.

Don't want to pi** on your parade veeg but the gear knob you (we) have is also actually found in a UK Nissan Primera/Almera & the Xtrail so nothing as cool as JDM sorry. Still beautiful though. Nice gear knob Op. Opssss, Oh well, it's still a knob for cool guys Definitely and still a unique gear knob to have in a Zed.

Tried Shades Rs? Or what about R35LEE? Shades Rs: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/87886-53-nissan-350z-gt-breaking-spares-with-20-khans/ R35LEE: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/63996-2004-350z-breaking-all-parts/ Pretty sure Shades Rs has the wings still. Good luck & hope that helps.

Good luck Craig and I'm rooting for you.

Good news that you got home safely but bad news about the possible bearing issue. Was it a private or dealer/trader sale? Maybe they could fix it under warranty is what I was thinking if it's a dealer/trader sale that's all. Hopefully nothing too serious anyway, ...hub & bearing is about £199 from Clark Motorsport a trader on here fyi.

Glad your enjoying vaping and maybe try to knock the cigars on the head in favour of vaping as it's definitely a healthier option imo. I used to vape a lot of Digby's E-liquids, ...mainly Gunpowder & Hooligan. Lately though I've been using a much nicer E-liquid from Vapelux London which has possibly the best flavours I've ever tried. I'm talking about fruity flavours here and these are really strong tasting which is great. Try them out if you get a chance Jp and I'm positive you won't be disappointed. Link: http://www.vapelux.com/e-liquids My favourite so far is "Watermelon, Cherry & Grape".

Very nice indeed. Any engine bay pics you can share Turboextreme? just curious to how it looks under the bonnet.

^^ All the above pretty much sum's it up for me. He obviously doesn't respect you as a person, let alone a friend otherwise he wouldn't have said things about your mother. Give him a months notice or whatever legally you have to and then get rid of him.

Great job Andy and that front lip look's fantastic. I'm with you on the sides steps though tbh: *Ring, ring* "Hello 1930's calling, Clyde Barrow & Bonnie Parker want their runner boards back!"

Whose to say that wasn't caused by a large stone whilst you where driving though? Had similar marks done to my Rota alloys which at the time hadn't been taken off since I put them on so the only cause logical was something like a stone flying up from another car in front or driving past. No harm in trying the Dealer I guess to see what they say but don't expect them to refurb your alloy for that or be overly generous with their help.

Bargain price Wasso. If I didn't already have a spacer I'd be getting one of these beauties for sure. GLWTS.

I read it. I just don't think they should be removing anything ~ just adding to it. Personally I'd like to see some sort of learner driver concentration camps whereby they're not even allowed on a public road until they are confident enough to perform all the maneuvers safely & drive at speed limits.

Happy Birthday Roscoe and Payco.

Both look pretty good for the age/mileage. I'd be leaning more towards the second one though as it is the GT with Rays, Bose etc. Also has "Z" burger badges I noticed so maybe more of a Zed enthusiast owned car. One thing to check in the service history though on either of those cars is to see if they've had the spark plugs changed as they should have been done at (every) 54K miles or 5 years whichever came soonest. Have a good read through this: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/31110-service-schedule-for-a-350z/ Maybe print it off & take it with you so that when you look at the service history you can see what things are missing off it which should really have been done. The plugs not being done aren't a massive deal breaker but it should have been done & will cost you at least £220 from a Nissan main dealer ~ of course I wouldn't say use a main dealer as a good independent garage will be just as good & cheaper but it's a good bargaining chip for getting money off the car if you intend to buy it.
