  1. Welcome to the forum I am way down south, but prefer to drive your local roads One you will recognize when I was following Stew, after the 2009 Hoon
  2. Locked, as this duplicates the thread below in the correct section: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=42374
  3. You have VERY expensive dreams Ian
  4. Theres loads of threads on here to help you - do an advanced search Here is sample: viewtopic.php?f=26&t=36650&hilit=roadster+rear+spoiler
  5. If the wheels were supplied new with the car and are less than 3 years old I would visit a Nissan dealer and see if they will support a warranty claim or at least a goodwill gesture - which can sometimes be secured, and even if they a little more than 3 years old. Surprised you did not query the condition though at the time of your purchase? And yes, if they were bought as 'aftermarket' wheels than the 3-year protection would not apply. First thing is to establish if they were supplied with the car from new - check with the supplying dealer. But having said all that, Nissan might say it is the way they have been cleaned, albeit not in your ownership and noting you have not used the metal polish shown in the pic, or other abrasive cleaner to further affect the lacquer. Given a set of Nismo wheels currently command s/h prices well over a grand, even if not in perfect condition, it is certainly worthwhile getting something done, particularly as they are such a great looking wheel.
  6. I see you have a 2007/8 ZED there with the optional Nismos - or do you know if they were not new when the car was first purchased? But I believe you car also has a Nismo exhaust and rad cap so perhaps the previous owner has added them? Otherwise, if they were supplied with the car from new it is surprising the wheels have deterioated in such a relatively short time and if less than 3 years old it makes me think you might have a warranty claim (in the same way earlier 350 owners have had the standard Rays wheels replaced due to paint bubbling). But...... But I am a little curious as to how you have cleaned them - what have you used seeing the products shown in your pic you posted up some while back? I am assuming the wheels were not in their present state when you bought th car?
  7. That all goes together so well - credit to you
  8. Yeah, is that no good then? As Abbey's Project ZED shell was originally built in the US that should answer your question
  9. I like to think I am a young man in an old(ish) body that ain't working either I definitely would not have a Merc - I would really feel old then

  20. From a previous thread he's on "the wrong side of the Tyne" but I have no idea what is the right side
  21. Almost makes me wonder whether the cables have been properly clamped onto the battery terminals with petroleum jelly and/or whether one has worked loose
