Hi, I am after a perfect (or very close) condition bonnet for my 370z, needs to be in QAB pearl white. Thanks in advance.

Had a black 370z Mk2 Nismo follow me from Norwich centre out onto the A47. Would be cool to find out who it was and if they live nearby 👌 Also saw they took a roller of me going past, which would be awesome to get hold of 👀

There is indeed, but it wasnt cheap. I bought the Nifty City kit. Its fully reversible as well so no cutting into anything. Here is a link to the review article I did for it which might help give you more info 👍

Thank you 🙏 Get one, you wont regret it. Unless you daily it like I do and it gets icy 😂 I appreciate the offer but im afraid I will have to decline haha.

I really think it looks so much better and suits the car more. The V2 spoiler looks great on a GT spec, but the Nismo wants something more aggressive IMO. Thats interesting. Well if you are ever in Norwich I can give you the name of the bodyshop. You could always get a GT spec tailgate and just swap the tailgates themselves? Then no work needs to be done.

Next update was i decided to get some Tarmac rear quarter window vents. Got them painted by my bodyshop and then fitted them with 3m tape. They arent a perfect fit or perfect shape for the window (which i was slightly disappointed by as it wouldnt be difficult to get them a lot closer), but you can only see that up close. Took a bit of moving around to get them where i wanted but got there in the end.

I went 5% on the rear and rear quarters, and then (i think) 35% on the sides. You really dont notice much difference looking out of the sides from inside the car which is good.

If it was my house thats exactly what i would do. But im renting currently unfortunately.

Yeh agreed, it actually makes a big difference to the look.

Another job i finally got around to doing was tinting the windows. I also went for a sunstrip at the same time. The side windows arent as dark as they look, its just the lighting in the car port.

Now that would be interesting…

Thats interesting. I imagine the previous owner, like me, took them off either because they faded of they just preferred without. Colour coded wing mirrors would be pretty easy to find as the GTs have them. It wouldnt look bad, but with the more aggressive body kit i think the Nismo suits the black mirrors.

Thanks! Yeh i definitely agree. Looks much sportier. And hopefully being powder coated they wont chip so easily.

Next was a non planned change. My red wing mirror accent stickers were all faded and looked terrible close up. And to replace them would be a £300 option from the States. So i decided to take them off and see how it looked rather than spend that obscene amount of money. And actually i now think i prefer it without, it just seems a little sleeker. But i know this will cause a debate. I have a mate with a vinyl cutter so can always have some more done cheaply if i change my mind.

Its been ages since i last updated this thread, so there are a few things ive done to the car since… The first thing was having the wheels powder coated and removing the diamond cut. Im not a fan of gloss black wheels, so went for a dark grey satin finish. I managed to get hold of some Nismo decals to go under the centre cap clear coat which work brilliantly. Imo the car looks to much better now.
