This is a great read and an awesome build Looking forward to seeing it progress

So I bought my car in September 2013, an Azure GT with 83K miles on the clock. I didn't start a build thread as I had a very short to do list that really wasn't worth sharing or keeping a log of: Refurb and paint wheels Fit clear reflectors Fit stubby aerial And that's exactly what I did On arrival at home Wheels, reflectors and stubby fitted. I service the car, replace all the fluids, new disks, pads and belts. The car is good to go. I'm done right? Erm.... CS2000 has some LED's for sale. So I fit interior and number plate lights Then I see some bonnet dampers that I like the look of Okay so now I realise the engine bay looks a bit dirty looking. The forum convinces me I'm Banksy with a rattle can and off I go under the bonnet It looks okay, but I can't stop there. The engine cover needs to be done, but if I'm removing the strut I'll have to see about making that look better. Oh Tarmac has a polished strut group buy running and there;s a pop charger just come up for sale Now the plenum looks worse than it did before and the bottle caps too I plastidip the front lip too Okay now I'm done. The car looks neat and tidy, running great mechanically. Sit back and enjoy it 14N has a really good looking vertical tonneau for sale I have to add the hubby is getting well p****ed off with all the tinkering (spending) so in a total huff I decide I'm going to wrap the roof gloss black, as the paint is a mess! I spend a good few hours one Saturday afternoon and whilst it looks okay, I'm not happy with all the imperfections from the paint showing through. I'll get it painted instead! whilst it's there I'll get the handles colour coded and the front and rear badges removed and filled I'm going to tint the rear window soon so will post roof pictures once that is complete. Missing my car whilst she was in the body shop I stumble across Rickdon's slam panel thread. Ooh pretty shiny things Thanks for looking

It's an awful day outside and everything is soaking wet but I couldn't wait to get this fitted, looks awesome. Thank you Rickdon Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk

Hi and along Nice looking zed

Thanks for the positive comments guys Think I might do a build thread, as I wasn't gonna mod this car but seem to have done quite a bit already

I've tried and I prefer the 350Z there, looks odd totally blank

Why thank you. I think it's the best feature of the car

Thanks, hopefully I'll get the tint done before the LakeZ meet

Just got it back from the body shop. Bad weather and poor phone pictures but really happy with the look and just had to share! Colour coded handles, black gloss roof (rear window tint to follow) and both front and rear badges removed. Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk

Thanks longsh07 but it looks like I'm sorted already, appreciate the offer though

Hi Ben and along Nice seeing another north east member, check out the meets section we get together every few months Good looking zed too

Hi and along Nice looking zed

Thanks guys, looks like I'm sorted but will be in touch if anything changes

Been hoping for the best for you bradders. It's great you got it sorted! Well done

Yep, got that one saved, Thank you. Emailed about a buy it now too

A little update: No points, just the naughty girl course I still have to pay the hubby £50 though

Like I say as low as possible. I'm gathering prices and options to see what's out there and yes oem is just fine You can PM the price you're looking at.

Thanks Vlad, I've seen your ad and it would be great but I'm hoping to keep the costs sub £100. I'll be in touch if I can magage a bigger budget

Hi all Having just spent stupid money on some body work and a shiney cooling plate the y-pipe has started really blowing and it sounds just awful. The whole system is oem and if anyone has a decent quality y-pipe kicking about that they'd want rid off soon I'm all ears. I really need to keep the price as low as possible. I'm in Sunderland and can collect locally. Thanks

Hi and along Good luck with the search
