  1. I love catalogues!!! From Argos to Lidl, Aldi, Screwfix, ToolStation, Ikea, etc....... Good find
  2. I just polished mine last week using Maguires headlights kit (https://www.amazon.co.uk/MEGUIARS-G1900K-Headlight-Restoration-Kit/dp/B001O7I7FS) cost about £25 ish. Follow the steps to sand your headlights slowly until it is white ish. Yes, this might sound scary but it works. Completely transformed it and it looks almost new. Make sure you use some detailing masking tape around your headlights to avoid sanding your paintwork. Just make sure you seal it with some UV wax (Turtle Wax ICE - http://www.carmaniaonline.co.uk/turtle wax ice synthetic paste polish kit- turtle wax- ice-car polish) I build up around 5 layers of wax so that the newly polished headlights are protected against UV which is the root cause of it turning yellowish Edit: DA = Dual Action (bed time story here explaining http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=63859 )
  3. Well done for getting it in the zed!!
  4. If i saw this 2 years ago, I could have saved £15.00....... Sent my zed to National windscreen and the guy there charged me £20.00. Good write up Gareth!!
  5. Sounds pretty good and not bad looking
  6. Thanks mate. Just looked at it, good price. Any feedback on quality? Use code "SERVICE20" for extra 20% off if you decided buy from ECP (Expires this Sunday, 22nd May)
  7. Either one of the above will sort you out. Both of the are great trader here!!
  8. PM Zmanalex or Emperor Tuning.........
  9. Monies Monies monies.........
  10. Try PM Emperor Tuning, he might have some too if Zmanalex has sold out =) I had one missing and a fellow forum member suggested to make one myself and another fellow member has a spare (broken) battery surround that he also uses that to make those caps. It matches well. About 5 minutes work on the electric sander or 20-30 minutes with a file . I then use some blue tac to keep them in place.
  11. Cheers Veeg! It's such a beautiful place! Been debating doing my wheels bronze, I think it'll brighten up the car a bit, the shadow chrome always gets lost against the white unless in direct sunlight... Will also be a lot easier to refurb one wheel opposed to having to do the lot. As the shadow chrome is translucent it would be very tough to match, the paint isn't cheap either! BMW Sepang Bronze, Range Rover Nara Bronze, something like that... I think that (bottom pic) will work really well with your zed mate. When I have funds available (God knows when), will get a set of alloys in dark bronze too.
  12. From my understanding, unless you go F/I, you don't need those one step colder plugs. Just normal NGK iridium will do,

    Saw this on book of faces this morning.........skills and a bit of luck for avoiding them all
  14. Congratulations on your purchase, Unfortunately, this is pretty common on 350z. If you are handy, you can try these..... http://www.350z-uk.c...try-this-first/ http://www.350z-uk.c...ky-axle-repair/ Did you buy from Nissan??
  15. Check out my build thread mate (link in my signature, post #128, page 7 http://www.350z-uk.c...s/page__st__120 ) for reversing camera, but i did not wire it up to my head unit as I'm still using Bose but at least it gets you half way. Few member here did the full thing but I can't remember who. As you have probably figure out yourself, you can run the AV feed through the middle to your head unit, you might need to remove the glove box etc for a proper job? Or maybe there is a tunnel there to the rear boot once the handbrake surround is removed ?? . Sorry can't help much....... Edit: Found these --> http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/78880-how-to-remove-centre-armrest-lid/ http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/44803-removing-centre-tunnel/ No pic but reading them gives you an idea.

    I can't remember exactly how much Emperor Tuning charged me for one. I think it was around £16-£18 delivered.
