cov350z

Hi guys thanks for all.this all . useful but have read done most of this. The question I'm after is do I need to remove the black rubber bits that sit over the roof so I can get a wrap around the plastic then put them back on or can I get away with just cutting up to edge I did a test run of the latta and it lifted after a day out in the rain. Guessing water got in edge and wind did the rest. I have managed to wrap the front bumper and front fenders bonnet roof and side skirts just this is my next section lol

anybody self wrapped there car(350z) ? want some advise on how to wrap the bit above the doors did you remove all the rubber trim seals? or just cut right up to them ? i tried cutting right up to it and using a card to push the vinyl in but it just lifted? was thinking of using a spray adhesive to give extra grip any ideas welcome

I've noticed a difference in light but my old bulbs were charred quite a bit so was dimming have the light. But I can now see I have headlights on driving down a lit road so I guess there about 10/15% brighter I'd say

just some ebay ones i seen someone used on here http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/D2R-6000K-White-HID-Xenon-Bulb-2-Replacement-Bulbs-Headlight-35w-Lamp-Light-UK/251069668408?_trksid=p3693.c100102.m2452&_trkparms=ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140212121249%26meid%3Db458cb77f8904a80b4018e3dc6a897bf%26pid%3D100102%26 only £10 for the pair cant complain not sure on if they'll last but at a 10a i can afford to change them 10 times before i meet the cost of so called high quality ones at £50 each

so i upgraded my headlight bulb to 6000k as i couldnt tell if my lights were on or off with the bulbs that were in there driving around town bulbs are great see my thread for pics http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/102783-zena-the-warrior-princess/ but i had a right ball ache doing it. those arch liners really dont want to come off do they and not easy to get to bolts/pins. i was lazy and didn't fancy jacking the car up so just done it while on the floor next time i will defiantly be putting it up in the air. bruised nuckles and cuts all over but please with the end result so its all good this is why we do things are self isnt it. suffer the pain to get the reward of doing it ourselves

nice little addition today upgraded my main lights from stock 4000k to 6000k bulbs much better light and look great before (not very good as in day light) after (new 6000k bulbs) thats the lot b4 xmas lets hope santa has a few goodies for me

so wrapped my bonnet and roof to go along with the mirrors in cf looks good with the red.

just changed my seats for bucket seats and when removing the passenger seat the seat belt senor wire wasn't plugged in to anything had a look at the harness and there isn't even a connector for it on there is this normal seems odd that it has a cable on seat belt but no where to plug it in cars a 03 350z

fitted my new omp trs seats yesterday loving the new position and the added support they give. My gf also is pleased with them saying there not as uncomfortable as she thought they would be. but she still prefers the tan ones. next job is to get some of the exterior wrapping started mate has offered me his garage to work out of a few nights next week more pictures added to original post

Just a quick update seats ordered coming tomorrow will upload once fitted

@lewis yea a family member had the pleasure of driving my car back😡 but half hour and a phone call to insurance it was my turn 😊

^^^^ took 3 days of driving like a granny to keep the clutch steady for test lol the car doesn't like 20 or 30mph zones

L2D im taking a guess at learn 2 drift? im planing a more time attack car than a drift mule but i think a few drift sessions wouldnt go a miss

guess ill be holding on to the best test car title for awhile till someone does a 370z or a gtr

^^^ i did have a surprising chat with the dsa about it i got several hang on a moment i need to ask .... before i just took it theres only a few cars on there not allowed list most are soft tops because of the reduced visibility

thanks bradders
