Now that i have traded in the car, I thought it would be nice to pin to the top the beginning and end pictures of the car whilst i owned it, to show how much it changed:

After having a few Hyundai Coupes over the last 4 years it was time for a change. I wanted something that looked as sporty but was quicker, and the 350Z was top of my list.

 

I managed to buy this Azure Blue Jap Import which i am really happy with. This is how she looked when i bought her:

Ok so it didnt take me long to start modifying the Zed...

 

The first thing i wanted to do was to spray the front difuser in the bumper black.

 

The finish and edges came out perfect and im very happy with it!

So there have been a few changes made to the car recently. The first was getting a UK spec centre gauge cluster. So i could see the damage of the fuel costs :lol: And i found out that there is no clock on the import trip computer...

 

After that i looked at getting rid of the rear fog lense. After inspection i found that being an import it had had some red tint spray on it, and so with a knife i could simply lightly scrape it off. So it took the grand total of 5 minutes:

Next i got some 'Z' badges for the front and rear:

Next a managed to get hold of a stock spoiler from a guy breaking a tailgate. It looks so much better and really finishes off the rear end:

you basically unpop the plastic cover on the boot lid, which is just clips, get your fingers under it and pull as close to the clips as you can - this will prevent any snaps. when its off, you can then remove the boot weight (just undo the bolts - you will see this when you get to it) and the wiper - look this up on the forum for guides

Ok so the next thing for me to do was to get some leather seats. Mine were just fabric and there was a patch on the drivers seats from where the fabric had ripped. Managed to get a set on Gumtree for under £200 delivered. They look so much better!

 

Here is a before and after:
