Looks good but....whats with the rubber bump guard on the drivers side. That is NOT the proper one for there.- VG30DET (HE341) 86 300ZX - 1982 280ZX Turbo - Headered NA 1986 300ZX 2+2 - 2000 Xterra - -

not to sound discouraging or like an ass but you can definetely tell it was in an accident and that they didn't do a "great" job (it doesn't line up w the hatch properly, bumper has gaps, etc)…however, I understand how hard it is to do what they did and (for the type of job) it's very good!
It definetely looks WAY better and like a proper Z
Enjoy it! -

I'll drive it for a while until something else catches my eye. I have a 59 Chevy hot rod truck project going also.
I still have alot of mods to do on it. All poly everything, MSA camber kit, ST springs, Illumina's, FMIC with MBC, Z32 front brakes, 1" adapters, Taurus e-fan, 90amp alternater, Blauplunk sound system, rear hatch area speaker unit, Recaro seats. All these parts are in boxes or laying around waiting to be installed.
You guys know how I am, always something new. I'm still looking for an SS in good condition locally that I can steal for a good price.
