    Nice looks good I'm a big fan of silver on z31 and z32s which is weird because I hate silver but it looks awesome on thesw.

    this is an old thread from four years ago that had broken links. A member asked me to restore them.

    Grabbed a dent puller on account of this thread. I also used a grinder to remove a quarter, I went through discs at an alarming rate.
