Looks like quite a few people for tomorrow, hopefully the rain will stay away. Its just snowed in Leighton Buzzard so now the car is covered in dirt after i spent quite some time washing her at the weekend....
-
If your unable to shift it i'll take it off your hands for £100, but I appreciate this is quite a lot less than your asking for so hope you get your asking price for it.

Spoiler provisional sold pending drop off/collection.
-
Can you bring them to the MK meet?
Thanks buddy
No problem. I may need reminding...
-
Sold!
Well not technically.....
Shall I bring them along on the 27th for the MK meet or do you want to collect them earlier?

Tarmac Sportz Roof Spoiler in Gloss black
I bought from another user about a month ago but never got around to fitting it and changing what im going to do with the car so no longer looking to fit it. I spent a tiny bit of time scrapping all the old tigerseal off the spoiler so should be a relatively quick install for you. I'll also give you whats left of the tube of tigerseal that the last owner kindly gave me. It has a slight cut out on the underside for the rear window washer so no need to remove rear washer.
£75 collected from Leighton Buzzard.
I replaced my gas struts with new ones so i have the old ones kicking about.
FREE for collection from Leighton Buzzard or i could charge you £5 plus postage for going through the hassle of finding a tube to post them in. The boot never fell on my head but i didn't fancy the risk. From a 2008 car so obviously quite old but if you have a broken pair this may help you out for a while for free.

I reckon Wednesday April 27th sounds good, MK Dons carpark again.
Started doing a few mods so hopefully will have them done by then....! Unfortunately none performance related. Saving up for those.

It is indeed a 12mm bolt. When i fitted my struts I removed the OEM one, but they are held in very tightly with copious amounts of threadlock. Personally, I heated the ball joints up with the "flamethrower" tip on my gas soldering iron (you could also use a kitchen blowtorch) to try to soften the threadlock, then used an open ended 12mm spanner (not a socket or the round end ones) and it came off with a bit of force.
Just for reference my '08 HR did not have threadlock on them, but did require quite a force to start them off but easy once started.
-
IIRC the newer models had two adjustments rather than one, this allowed the front half of the base to go up independently from the rear half of the base. I started with mine fully ramped up and slowly bringing the back half down to make use of the lumbar support. Might be worth keeping a eye out for a breaking 350z on ebay etc and then re-purposing their seats and selling yours on.

Edit: i know this is LHD but mine is RHD and has the two adjustments wheels.

I'm about to order a pair from SGS. Anyone know what is the size of the bolt that screws into the bootlid? I just tried a couple of spanners on it - 11mm is too small but 12mm seems too slack and I don't want to risk stripping the bolt.
PS Haven't been on the forum for a couple of years now but still running the original Z.
I ended up using a very narrow/thin adjustable spanner as I only had my imperial scanners and couldn't get any to fit cleanly.

If you are still looking to buy them then these are the ones I bought:

If I remember correctly you're near MK?
I live in MK if you want to have a look at them...
I've already bought the spray so shall give that a go, come along to the next MK meet and I can have a look! If mine looks awful in comparison I'll quickly shift!
-
Bought some spray, bought a different one so i could get two cans for about £6. Thought i'd give the front reflectors a few coats and hopefully get rid of the orange....
-
If it's just the side indicators then why not try a tint spray.
I did it about two decades ago to my first cars rear tail lights. Looked pretty good ~ 90's style.
Haha, hadn't realised it was that cheap. Saw a can for about £20 and thought I could just buy smoked ones for that! But for a few quid if it looks awful I can always wipe it off.
-
Other than eBay, anyone know where I can buy smoked side indicators?
-
Mine were from Carlab there's a thread on here all about them and a discount. Very easy to fit , bumper off then pretty much plug and play ( you will need to do a small very easy mod to have the fog light working).
Been thinking about these for a while, any ideas on where I can find the mod?

Guessing these still aren't in otherwise you'd have posted?
