    Very nice. I found when I did the engine cover on my 1st 370Z it didn't last too long until it reacted, however I think I didn't use high temperature paint.

    I've never used high temp paint per say I always use a high build primer which to an extent is high temp but never had an issue and I've done the same on brake calipers and they held up well for 2 years till I sold the car but I assume a good few more years too

  2. So somewhat of a busy day painting and hydrodipping 

    Got my a pillars done in carbon some more carbon in the engine bay and the yellow marbel splash is for the battery and brake fluid covers.

    Will post some more photos when they are finished and fitted then it's the strut brace and engine cover to get done next 👌👌

  3. So I brought so new wheel bolts but I'm not 100% if I should use them my inner mechanic says yes it's fine but they are some what different to the stock bolts.

    Stock ones being a sunk in style and 21mm my new ones are 17mm and a standard style wheel bolt 

     

    What do you think?

    They should be okay the beval at the base is the same but doesn't sink in over the stud like the stock bolts do

  5. so i brought a 370 a couple weeks back and i used to have a build thread for my old 350 so figured i would do the same with the new one.

    so I brought it pretty standard well serviced no mods bar some end pipes and black wheels so a nice blank canvas for me to have a way with. 

     

    at the 2 week mark so far ive gone for mishimoto intake tubes hks air filters 20 and 25mm wheel spaces carbon window louvers, wiper delete and thats about it soo far
