Kevo Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Hi everyone. Just posting this to say hello to everyone and to introduce myself. My names Kevin (or Kev). I live just a little way from Norwich, Norfolk (the old fenland) and have just bought a 350z GT UK spec in blade silver. It is an accident damaged example (one of the reasons i bought it) and have taken it on over the past few months as a project (and have a fair few left!) I haven't yet actully drove it which is quite frustrating (as it is quite a step up from my current car). I thought i would join the forum now, as i was going to leave it until i finished, but what the heck, something to talk about, which im sure some of you will have an interest. Anyway, Thanks to those who have already generously welcomed me, and many thanks to those (if any lol) who will in the future Kev Quote
neo Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 welcome Kev would love to see some "work in progress" pictures if you have any Quote
sunset350z Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Welcome Kev hope the repairs go to plan, and if you need anything just ask on the forum and i`m sure one of us will help you out. Quote
Kevo Posted July 18, 2008 Author Posted July 18, 2008 Thank you very much all. Got a few pics here of the work in progress Quote
Lexx Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Jesus! Id hate to see my Zed like that!! Good on you taking on the project though and welcome! Quote
Kevo Posted July 18, 2008 Author Posted July 18, 2008 lol. Yeah tried the t-cut, didn't work really The part i am currently having a problem sourcing is a blade silver OSF headlight washer. Just encase anyone can help! Also have a headlight for sale if anyone needs one (i've put it up in the trading post) Quote
Stew Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Try MJP, Big Phil, Envy...... They all get Nissan parts. Some take out the headlight washers and mesh it, looks mean. I think Big Phil did this. Quote
RobD7 Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Looks like one hell of a project! Fair play though! And welcome to the site Quote
bronzee Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 Welcome to the family Kev. Quite a project you've taken on, keep us protest with your progres. Quote
Beavis Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 Again to the forum. Yes you have a big project on there. Quote
Zummertor Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 again Some project, can't quite tell the full extent of damage but certainly looks reserved for the front end. Best of luck and worth considering the different look for the washers if you are having trouble sourcing them. Quote
mbs Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 Hello & Where in Norfolk are you, spend our holidays in Langham, near Blakeney, down again in September. Quote
Madmarky Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 to the forum mate and good luck. I may have a headlight washer as i dont think the bodyshop are fitting them to my new bumper, i will reply in your trading post when i know for sure. Quote
Kevo Posted July 19, 2008 Author Posted July 19, 2008 I'm from a place not that far from Blakney. Nice place if i say myself. Thanks for the welcomes and the good lucks. To answer any queries, the damage extends pretty much to the whole of the front end (but no chassis/engine damage, luckely). Was all the rad, AC compressor, core support, wings etc. Lucky its got that pretty strong (and expensive) slam panel (didn't think ally would be that strong!) thanks madmarky, if you could let me know about that headlamp washer, that would be great!

Digsy Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 Brave man! Welcome aboard and good luck with it. Quote
H5 Posted July 22, 2008 Posted July 22, 2008 Good luck with the project and welcome to the club. Quote
