well, not really...

because his car is white, any scratches he got will not be noticeable at all.

Very nice...my tires look like that at the end of every month. There is a hatchery near my girlfriends house (She lives way out there about 45 mins from any police department) And at night they don't close the place they just leave it open and people come and go. Huge parking lot, 1/2 mile strip of pavement and no secrutiy That's where I do this kinda stuff. Looks sweet though my tires are starting to show the steel bands again....that's my second pair of rears this month

Do you have a tire hookup? I get lot model tires for $100.00 for a set of 4 plus dismounting and remounting on my rims, balance, disposal of old ones, etc, it comes to about $150.00 for a set of new tires with maybe 1000 miles on them.

Nice! I work in detail.....and we use laquer thinner to get rubber and road tare off paint. Most people will call it crazy and say it'll eat thru your paint.....eh...no....not at all. i do it everyday and it will come off way easier than it will with any compound. You can rub awhile with the laquer (not even sure if i'm spellin that right but who cares) But you can sit there all day and rub it on your paint, cause yes, eventually it will eat thru the clear coat. But you can rub it on there for quite awhile before it does that. Just make sure you soak the rag with it, don't rub it on there with just a little laquer....get your rag nice and soaked lol. But then after that i'd take some compound and shine her back up.

Just for the moment.When you drive, or abuse in your case, I vlsd for a while, the diff oil heats up quickly and becomes less viscous which disables it from acting like an lsd and more of an open diff. It'll act as a vlsd again once the oil cools down.

edit: plus it's just a vlsd, not some fancy kazz 2way.

want to clean my right door up? a week or two ago when i was down there i ran over some BIG metal that some d!ck left in the middle of the road (near your house actually - right past wal-mart - i've seen you driving that direction, so you're welcome for cleaning it up) and it left some big scuffs that i'm sure will come off. it's the scratches that are a bigger problem. and there's a small ding . not horrible, but it really sucks. guess what - my Z is in auburn now!!! finally.
