unique z ideas?
ok, ive got a few questions, i am restoring an 83 280zx turbo, but i want it to be different, i am definatley going to powder coat the valve cover blue, and have the letters shine in silver or something, and im going to get blue hoses, blue cap and rotor, anything i can get blue. but i want people to be able to see it, does anyone know where i can buy, or material i can get to make a clear hood, ive seen it done on some ricers on the web but never in person, if anyone can help, please tell me. Plus, has anyone ever seen on some bikes how they make the tube (colored or not) for the spark plug and trhen u can actually see the spark traveling, well, does anyone know if they make anyhting related to that for cars?? ok well i gotta go, thanks for the help...

I've never seen the spark plug thing, and as far as the hood goes that would be a custom thing. I'm guessing you would have to use several panels of plexiglass and find someone who was good with glassing to make everything look good and smooth. That would be a really neat project to do. If you go through with it then be sure to keep us updated with pics. Good luck man.

as far as the hood goes... you can probably get a big sheet of plexiglass and a strong heat gun and lay the glass on the original hood and heat it up to form it.... not sure how long it would take, but i kno someone who made clear running lights like that.
