here comes that long due update... :teeth:

 

first was Japfest '19

great venue as usual,downside this year is that weather wasn't as kind to us as previous year but hey,nevermind that when we had such a cool stand B)

 

next thing on the list was to give the car a different look and you know what usually happens when I say different :lol:

 

so....ordered some wrap and got started 

 

69667314_1318420561650940_2608168926864998400_n.jpg.49babf15945966cc1035231bfb46cfc0.jpg

and we ended up with this

69923274_363448221232957_3924454035175768064_n.jpg.15171d00838fa83418b03472a49410de.jpg

next in was JDM Combe,which was a great event simply because the weather was good :stir::yahoo:

now while I was loving these wheels there is always something else I wanted them to look like so the work soon began 

 

took them off

split them as well as this was what I decided to do myself rather then pay others to do it

some new michellins as well for the fronts

and also had to replace all 176 bolts from the wheels and went for these beauties

then the guys powdercoated them gloss black outer and inner lip and satin black centre piece

next job on the list was to blend in the ducktail

also had to change my smoked lights as one was cracked but only went for a good condition DE set

 

last show booked was Japanese Performance Show and again an amazing venue

I never knew you did the wrap yourselves!!! Blown away as it looked fully sick! Matching brands front and back was a smart move, plus it looks more pleasing to the eye B)

 

You've learnt so much about body work prep and finish and it's clear to see.

haha thanks,did most of the wrap alone as my mates were always busy...only had one helping me for an hour or so :lol:

 

in terms of bodywork I did learn a fair bit but to be honest I just can't put up with anymore sanding...worst thing everrrrrr :surrender:

well,as some of you have already seen it on FB this 350z build has now stopped and it is a complete break up :blush: as the car is being sold by parts.

 

the time has come to move to a 370z and last weekend picked up a 2010 black GT model down south which only means one thing,a new build thread on the horizon 

 

Mods,it is ok to lock this build thread now,thank you
