Hey BB, do you know when the Z is up for it's next reworking? I'm not talking just the 2013 de-fanging, I mean real makeover.

I've got no idea, but that sounds like a good internet search project for me. I'll see if I can dig up anything.

Great! I've got to decide if I want to put some $$$ in this car and keep it a while, or pay it off and buy a new loaded one next design.

I ordered my diffuser finally and it is backordered for 6/8 weeks. :mad: Was hoping to get that on this weekend.

I know what'cha mean kiddo. I don't think my Camaro has a stock part left on it. :biggrin:

I would really like to put some rims on my car, but Memphis is the auto theft capitol of the world :rolleyes: and putting a set of custom rims on a car is kinda like painting "Steal Me" across the hood. :facepalm2

Well, unless they've got your chipped key or a tow truck it's going to be a little hard to steal, but I understand what you mean.

If you want function without so much bling you can try to pick up a set of the 370Z forged aluminium wheels on the cheap from someone that went aftermarket and is looking to ditch their OEM wheels. I picked up a set of the forged aluminum wheels for summer wear in my 350Z for $600 a little over a year ago. Outside of some tire mounting marks and wear in the lug holes they look perfect. Lighter and stronger, what's not to like about forged alumium? Here are the optional sport wheels from the 370Z.

Then if you're into the shiny look you can try and find the OEM polished aluminum that were made by ALCOA (the other forged aluminum for the 370Z and the ones for the 350Z are made by Rays of Japan).

I don't like the polished look of the ALCOA set, but I think that the shape looks MUCH better. I'd end up getting them powder coated if I had them, unless I had a black car, then they'd look pretty good.
