Some impatience A&& in a Mondeo saw fit to tail gate, I pulled into my parking spot outside, rather backing in and scratched my Rays. Only had the refurb 2 months. Totally with myself. Two very light scratches, but to me they are CRATERS. Any ideas how I can touch them up please? Help! I am so gutted! Bradders.

Aye both stopped working. Don't ask me if its the same fuse as I have no idea, but I suspect it is. I'm sure Lee will confirm. Thankfully headlight washer still worked so at least I could get some waters flicking onto windscreen. Was right in the middle of the crappy weather too.
-
Think you need to get it up on a ramp to change, as its well under the front right wheel arch. Mine went about a month ago blowing the front washer fuse Bradders.

Lexx's one came off easier than he thought, when someone opened his rear boot Bradders

I can vouch for R35LEE's work; very good quality. Though he will make you stand around in a freezing car park while he sits in your car fixing the stereo. Or was that just me? Bradders

Whole job took me 3 hours Wheels with Megs Hotrims Quick wash with mitt and jetwash. Dry with Megs water magnet. Clayed with Megs quick detailer. Droped one clay So binned it. Then Dodo Lime Prime Then Dodo Supernatural. Was completely cream crackered. Then had a very cold Stella. Job done. Bit cheesed off as I spotted a big stone chip on bonnet. Maybe a bonnet and valance respray might be a good idea. Pricey? Bradders.

Was never very sure about the look of the 370z. Always thought it had a high waistline. Bit like Simon Cowell. Never seen one in black though and that has changed my mind utterly. I think I have found my next car. Not yours obviously. I aint gonna come round and nick it Bradders
-
Yeah I saw the video last night. That car is something else Bradders.

I'm tempted as mine has an advisory on it, but tbh this looks as if it has the same amount of life left in it. If it had been a better nick I would have had it off you. Maybe I should go to a Scorpion too Bradders

I'll be doing my first decent cleaning job on a car this weekend. Want her to look nice for the Jap car meet in Sunderland on Sunday. Never used a clay before but have looked at loads of videos on Youtube to understand the technique. Going to use two bucket method, with a stand from my (clean) Microwave in one bucket to rub grit off. My missus has declared that she is going to be my "Bucket B*tch" to fetch and carry. I got some Dodo Red mist, Dodo Prime Lime and a panel pot of Supernatural Dodo Wax, based on advice and reading on this wonderful forum. Can't seem to find any tips around Supernatural application. I'm guessing as thin are poss and leave to bond for 30 mins or so. Seem right? Have a few tiny scratches around the boot area, I guess from opening(not me) Will Lime Prime remove or should I use Megs Scratch X first? Lots of pics to follow of mine and other from forum the Jap show on Sunday Bradders.

Thanks for correcting my forum foul Bradders

Sorry Chilli is that Asad who makes the knobs or who sells the centres on eBay? Bradders.

Thanks Husky and ATTAK Z, those are some nice ideas. That sort of thing is exactly what I'm looking for. Think I'll look at a Stubby, badgers and B pillars first. Saw some Z wheel centre caps on Fleabay. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NISSAN-350Z-18-RAYS-ALLOY-WHEEL-Z-CENTER-CAPS-X4_W0QQitemZ130372206820QQihZ003QQcategoryZ43117QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp4340.m444QQ_trkparmsZalgo%3DCRX%26its%3DC%252BS%26itu%3DSI%252BUA%252BLM%252BLA%26otn%3D5%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D8724983464177882704 Anyone know if they are any good? Would prefer some from a known suppliers. Not saying there is anything wrong with this guy of course. Who was it who makes the gearknobs here with laser engraving. Maybe he could tool some? Bradders.

Don't want to put the frighteners on ya, but be careful on the underground with handbags/wallets. I know people who had problems in Rome. My wife had her purse nicked in Madrid last year on the Underground too. European cities are very bad for it. Just wanted to give you the heads up as it bloody ruined my time in Spain that year. Stay safe Bradders.
-
My gearknob vibrates too. The missus likes it; can't think why. I think is a TADTS of the Z. Evo magazine called one of their test cars, a Sunset, the "Ginger Tingler" Bradders.

Grin at bad drivers for you know that maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but they WILL crash. Simples I just hope they do it alone. Bradders.

Should be 35psi for stock wheels and tyres That's what it says on the door shuts. Surely Nissan are right with this? Or am I put too much faith in them TRE50 I must say it sounds like you are canning the car rather hard. Are you talking it to RWUB's?? Bradders.

I could always take the Mrs Swift Sport to work,and she could get a taxi! lol Friends of our are moving in round the corner,so i maybe able to leave the car there if i cant get up to my place. Result. Do people have a set of winter tyres and summer tyres,or just keep the same ones on the car? Also,has anyone ever had an LPG conversion on their 350,is it possible? I tended to nick my missus Swift Sport during the snow. Snap! It got me back into heel and toe after my Merc Slushmobile I considered a LPG too. But I'm so sure now as I was worried about MPG, but actually the Zed is pretty good considering the oompf. Probably better than a RX8 or S2000 Bradders.

Bored at work and boss is away , so thought I'd reach out to others in the same position and pick your brains. I want to keep mine mainly OEM but make some very subtle but cheap mods. Just spent aload on Dodo Juice Only had her since Jan this year. She is completley standard with Rays. Maybe some carbon B pillars covers and a stubby for starters. I'd like to put on a couple of the nice Z badgers that Envy do. Think the smoked chrome will look nice against GM. On another note, is there a switch I haven't found to switch off the factory reverse sensors. I back mind onto the drive and get waved in by the missus as it is very tight, and I'd like to use it just for parking, as on the drive they drive me potty. So LOUD Any input greatly received. Bradders.

Like that, just need to get one of those mat things to stop it skidding across the dash Bradders
-
Very nice name. Like that very much

Work for Red Bull F1 team?? Not being funny, but is that not one of the best jobs in the WORLD!!?? I agree on the snow front. I've experienced going sideways at 60 on the A19. Very squeaky backside time! Buy a cheap Panda 4x4 for the winter Bradders.

I think there is a reset you can do by turning they key on the main ignition a number of times. 4 rings a bell. Check the manual, I'm sure there is something in there. Bradders.

Just to add my opinion, though I had limited experience of forums, I would be very happy with a post limit raised to around 50 or more. It would scare off spammers alot, as that would be a hassle getting to that, if they weren't genuine. It would give everyone the piece of mind they are buy off enthusiasts rather than opportunists. I'd personally only buy off someone who has or had a Zed, as I'll know they know their stuff. Must say I applaud the maturity of the mods here, and their atitude to protecting our interests in this matter Thanks guys. Bradders.

What are those wheels!!?? They are ACE!! Bradders.
