    Come on, not even the slightest bit of automotive banter..

    Brr now thats it cold the Alfa isn't happy, got to replace a vacuum hose from the VNT solenoid as I have no toques below 2000 RPM :(

    Flip-side is that car insurance is much more cost effective at my new address, and my commute now means I can go for the large engine and no diesel option :)

    I like the 200/240SX even more than the 300zx (since I prefer sports sedans over pure sports car.).

    You shud keep going....

    I don't get the plastidip fad.

    Who cares what others thinks, do what you want. Cars are 100% subjective opinion.

    It's easier and far less expensive than doing a "correct" paint job.

    If I bought a brand new car, I would vinyl wrap it. If I had an old car, I'd just plasti dip it. I think plastidip would even help with rust prevention.
     
  19. Thanks for the input, guys. Also, yeah, I meant opinions on "going with it". ..Obviously the hood and trunk look horrid. That was just after doing the roof and blacking the windows out. ..Cheap mans paint and tint. Definitely, not going to do the other windows though.

    The fad or whatever is that it protects your paint, or in my case, covers up what paint/clear coat you don't have and it's cheap. The good is that it peels right off.

    The only thing I taped off was my driver/passenger quarter panel, window/door and made nice angle on the pillar. There was hardly any over pray on the windshield/screen but again, it peeled right off. I went the extra mile with a razor blade to make sure it looked clean though.

    And just to add, there are far worse "fads" out there. ..Chalkboard, purposely rusted look and bosozoku. Yeah :)
