Terry could get it to you awfully quickly. OTOH, if you do want the logo have I got a deal for you.... Lol
LOL, no... I don't want the cap with an INFINITI logo on it. No offense.

However, I am going to contact ZeeToyz and see if they'll sell me one. Doing that right now, in fact.

Terry is trying to sell me the full 3-piece set, in black w/o the logo. No issue with the effort on his part (because business), even though all I really want is the washer cap. However, if the pieces look really really good, then maybe I will go for all three.

Rex, can you take some pics, w/close-ups, of these caps installed, please?

Sure thing though I haven't installed the power steering fluid cap yet. Maybe I can rest it on top to give you an idea. Please bear in mind that my engine bay will NOT compare to yours in terms of aesthetics...

Ah... Terry has agreed to split his set and sell me just the washer cap, in black, without the logo. An-n-n-nd, he just popped it in the mail. Given the hassle of getting post from Canada to the USA, I expect this package sometime in December (LOL). The irony is that Hamilton, Ontario is only 100 miles away. Might as well be on the other side of the planet given the border BS.

Anyway: Rex, buddy, thank you for bringing this to my attention. Good man.

I feel like I've been slacking...

Don't have any new pics yet but I have made some progress.
R2C intake installed (and loving it)
Finished swapping out all the interior lights with DD LEDS
Need to install the white city lights and switchback front turn signals
Wanted to be more organized (like Rochester) so I picked up the Snap On organizer for the trunk and a couple other items I think will help maximize the trunk space.

Bought another set of Rays and am waiting for them to arrive and get powder coated. Then tires, I'm thinking Michelin all-seasons on a squared set up using the 19 x 8.5s but need to figure out sizes and whether that's the tire for me. (Anyone looking for a squared set of fronts?)

FI RHFCs should be here on the 5th so I'm hoping to have the tires ready to go and install sways while the cats are going on. Maybe the Cusco bar too but I need to decide if I'm going to have it black chromed, painted or left alone. Then I need to stop for awhile, this has snowballed a bit faster than I planned. Okay, I'm kidding myself. The calipers need painted but really that should be it. And a drop but really... That should be it...

HAHAHA I did laugh pretty loud reading the last 3 sentences haha... great progress... I'm jealous of you going through mods soooo fast, also out of all these Strut bars I have no idea which one to get which eventually I am planning on

I think both of you are going too fast. But that's only because I'm slow as hell.

You know what mods I've been pushing around the list? Been looking at the STS, and that RJM clutch pedal assembly a lot lately. I keep getting hot and cold about the Short Throw Shifter. Whereas I started cold on that clutch pedal assembly, and am turning around on it now like something I want sooner than later.

Wait, this is Rex's thread. Um, nevermind.

Alllll are welcome!

I thought you did the clutch assembly already? Or was that just the spring swap on the clutch you did? I haven't driven a MT in years, I think the last time was a TT RX7, much as I love it I'm nor sure I would have wanted it in the hills of PGH or here in Memphis. Or... Perhaps I'm getting lazy

I sort of agree, I'm moving quickly. Unfortunately I think now I have the bulk of a vision in my head that I'm working towards. There are facets I'm on the fence about and I know I need to research more. I also think this will be like other searches I've been on (I have a box 'o' holsters from my search for the "right" one) albeit more expensive.

Mike I only have a couple mods... Okay a few...

Honestly I dont understand getting the aftermarket clutch pedal assemblies, what's the point? I mean unless you track the car and really need it then I guess but other than that? I replaced my stock spring with the little softer one like 2 months after I bought the car and now the I've been turning around on it for a while now thinking to go back to the stock stiff spring which I know sucks... but at least there isn't any delay when the clutch is kicking back up

Thing is, I was very gently at black betty in one of those RJM threads, when all of a sudden he took the time to lay out a very convincing argument. Don't tell him I said that.
