Well after 4 months, it's done (opinions please)
I'm in SW FL incase anyone's intrested
Lemme know what yah think, and then let me know what you think I can get for it. I unfortunately need a work truck and I've been bit by the "YZF R1" bug hehe.
It's a 93 NA with 165k miles (yah I know that hurts) but runs perfectly and has better oil pressure than the engine is supposed to have at 100k (oil pan was removed and it wasn't full of gunk, so it's legit pressure, not that engine honey cstuff). It's got a duel friction clutch (5 spd), K&N intake, custom made exhaust. It runs 14.8's and is one hell of a strong car. It had AC when the belt blew, but I havn't replaced that belt since I don't use AC.
Comes with a JVC Headunit, 4" Infinity Speakers all the way around (custom fit) and a custom made fiberglass box containing a 10" Alpine S sub, powered by a 300wt MTX Amp (box is pictured). The entire system has been rewired to bypass that stupid bose crap.
The interior arm rest and piece behind that, are coated in Fiberglass and painted to match the Gunmetal color that half the car is. The seats are leather and in pretty decent shape. The steering wheel is starting to peel but I might just pull off that leather and keep the plastic one.
Now for the big part:
Both the front and back bumper are molded in, along with the texture being taken out of the rear bumper. The Front one is not stock, but I can't remember the brand name. Also, the entire "indention line" that comes on all 300zx's...the line that runs around the entire car at about shin height....has been molded in...making for a incredibly smooth and sleek look. Take your car to the body shop to have this done, and your looking at about 5 grand with the paint, and another 600-800 for the sub box.
Take a look at the pictures and lemme know

My honest opinion is that it's a Z with potential, but there's a few things that aren't my style. It looks clean as far as condition goes though. The interior looked pretty clean except the missing interior panels. I like the look of losing the indention along the bottom of the Z, not sure if I would spend 5K$ on it, but it looks good. Ok I have to say it....WHY??!! Why that paint job? But it's not important that I don't like it, it's important that you like it. Congrats and post any questions if you run into any problems or any thing else, I'll try my best to help you out, but I'm sure Rizz will beat me to it and I'll end up just agreeing with what he says. Rizz you're like the son I never had..jk that's funny...I'm nearly 20.

I went with that paint scheme because it's something nobody's done. the 5k figure is for molding the bumpers in also, along with all the paint. But I didn't pay that....since I did most of the labor. And the missing interior parts are back on it, they just wern't on a few months ago when that picture was taken.
Thanks for replying
No other questions really, It'll be on Ebay in a few weeks

It worked for me, but if it's not working for you, try copying and pasting them. Bart, I hope i wasn't too harsh, but I think it's better to be honest than to beat around the bush. They'll be someone on ebay that will buy your car, it looks pretty clean and the interior will look very nice after you have the interior pieces back in. Good luck selling it.
