UPDATE 4/6... Finally moved into the new house. Had to get the wife a new car as well. Got a smoking deal on a 2017 White Q50 Red S. That's her car. I took her old one which is a 2015 Black QX70 S. Not a bad trade. G is officially in the garage on stands.

4/6 front bumper is off and installed GTM oil Pan. Also switched out my Z1 25 Row oilcooler for a 30 row. My oil lines are sweating oil. This is a thread on 370Z forum with people having same issues. Contacted Z1 to see if can help. Time to install injectors

OC Q50 Style Bumper Install

Its done. Took about four hours to get this on. Reason is I have to dremel all the holes out for the bumper to go on properly. If anyone is planning to buy this bumper it's worth the money. But, it's a cheap poly. It's really soft and fragile. When u dremel holes pieces fly off in chunks. Fitment isn't perfect either. The only spot on my bumper that fitmemt is a issue is where the bumper connects to the rad cover. It bows up. I believe double sided sticky tape could fix this. I give the bumper a 7 due to the fitment issues and cheap poly. Next up is putting on the VIS hood.

Hydro Dipping

I have been going back and forth what I want to do next with my engine and interior as far as dress up. I do like CF but I did that before and everyone is doing it. Sooooo I decided I was going to do the engine and interior trim with skulls via hydro dipping. Inalso did not want the skulls to look cheesy. So the company I use suggested a faded approach. Basically the skulls don't pop. They are subtle. I did the rad cover, brake and battery cover to test it out. I like it. Engine cover is being done as I type and other engine parts will be done as well. I will also have some interior trim done like this. Here is pics of what's done so far.

Update 1/23/17

Installed blitz radiator cap
Installed Engine Cover with TopSecret Emblem and TS oil cap
