Finally home!

Well, finally got home with the G35. 500 bugs later and 8 road construction sites. Going to have to have the frontend under the grill repainted. Got chipped really bad then also hit a bird with that piece.

Other than that was a great trip. Was pretty funny some kid in a Scion t/c would not leave me alone until I raced him. Yes, a waste of time and gas. But was still funny.

yah! Well if anyone in the group is the bad luck guy. Get ready to move over! It is all good the bird hit the lower black grill part. Didn't break but when I pulled over at Arby's some kid was freaking out cause I had a dead bird on my grill. Decided to pull it off after I ate. haha

There is a body shop near by that I have used in the past. Going to get it fixed up before the August 13 meet.

Trying to get my wheels and tires and exhaust on before the meet as well. Not so sure about the springs and the rest.

Just in time for the meet too!

Got done putting a coat of Zymol on the car. Front end will have to be taken off and repainted for sure. Have to order a Zaino clay bar kit. Can't get the tar off to save my life. Don't want to use something and end up taking the clear coat off. Also noticed the panel right in front of the rear tires is chipped up a bit too. Looks like a factory clear bra kind of thing on the paint. Will see what my body shop guy says. Never seen so many road crews working on Saturdays.

Just had my bumper repainted...

$358.50 at Craftsman Auto Body. They have several shops in No. Va. They do great work. Perfect paint match. They may not be the least expensive, but nothing's too good for the G!
