A Nice day in the UK??????

Well seeing as it's actually not raining today...........i thought i'd better take some pics of the Z just to prove it doesn't rain all the time in the UK!!!!!!!!!!!

I think it's only the third time this year i've dared have the t-tops off!!!!!!!!

So i went to town on the polishing........looks pretty good i think..

And just to finish off a picture of the interior.........the car has been retrimmed in grey leather with red piping to match the car, i've fitted a Momo millenium steering wheel and the overhead console and auto-dipping rear mirror............and for tunes i've got an Alpine CD head unit and KEF speakers all round.......

What do you think???

Cheers

C-ya

Looking good mate. Geez I thought you were on holiday, you're never posting in Europe anymore Love that steering wheel! It is looking great! Still happy you changed the wheels? You definitely did the right thing!

Been polishing my beast as well. Looking fine I have to say...

Gotta love Britain in the sun! Hope you are well

I really like it. Powermite has the same steering wheel. I like that too, it really makes the interior look more modern.

Yes mate back to full strength, not pleasant that!!

Let me guess- you have a mate who does upholstery too? Seriously though the seats do look great. How much was it to get done?

Also has you car ever been resprayed? Looking shiny!

Naw, seats were done when i got the car, if i remember correctly it was bloody expensive!!!!!!

Yeah it has been resprayed at some point, to be honest though it could do with being done again at some point just to make it a bit shinier!!!!
