I love it 🙂 Then i got a few Carbon interieur trim pieces for the Honda CR-Z for a few customers directly imported from Thrash / Stylemagic Japan. really beautiful stuff:

SHOULD I?
Here we go, another “should i?” post. Recently found this Bride histrix seat and remember seeing them in an old bride catalogue. Sadly not many of them out in the market and out of production since 3-4 years they will be seriously hard and expensive to get: Another item i’m definitly looking forward to order soon is this Koyo racing radiator. It has a crossflow design, is lighter and has a bigger surface than the shitty OEM design: More updates on the car this weekend i hope 🙂

240Z: New Frame rails! :)
You remember the “Datsun parts heaven” i wrote about a while ago? Today i visited this place again, because i wanted to pick up a set of pretty damn rare NOS OEM Frame rails for the 240Z. I’ve never seen them for sale so they must be something really sought after and i wanted to secure them for my project. here they are, can’t get any better 🙂 Then my mate stefan and i Checked out a nice Z which is for sale and a few friends of us are interrested in: And Stefan took a closer look at a Datsun 180B Triple S, a seriously rare car over here! …

240Z: Fenders, Hood and Grille off!
Spent another hour at the new (black) Z and “freed” the front end to have a closer look:1) Grille off: 2) Fenders off: 3) Hood off: Good news: I found what i was looking for: A pretty solid, straight and not-too-rusty Front end. Perfect for swapping it over to the white chassis 😀
