Pics of my sedan. BLACK 2004

Here are some pics of my sedan right after her 7500 mile check-up. Tinted windows, clear corners, killer stereo, (Boston Acoustics, Shiva 12", PP amps).

Next are rims!!!!

Any suggestions??? I like the looks of the coupe rims, but I'm afraid I'll have to get my car lowered to fill the wheel gap.

Nice. Looks just like mine except I have the non-sport 6 spoke wheels. Do the Zaino treatment properly twice/year and it will look like that 10 years from now. If you want to sell your stock wheels, PM me and I might be a buyer.

I've actually checked out the Zaino website and was a little confused on which product to buy. They sell a few different one's and really don't know what's best for my black car.

Does anyone here know which one I should buy??

For a lot less than Zaino, you can pick up Eagle One Nanowax and top it off with Wax As You Dry. Plus, it's EASY to maintain - Nanowax every 4 months and dry with WAYD after washing. It seems to last pretty well and it's shiny as all hell. My friend tried NXT Techwax but it doesn't seem to be as durable or shiny.

This is what I did the first day I brought it home.

1. Wash with a dawn dishwash solution.
2. I did not claybar the whole car after washing since the first few square feet did not show any contaminants.
3. Apply Z-1 Polish-lok, and then apply Z-5 right on top of the Z-1.
4. Let them both dry for a few hours, more if the temp is under 60F, or really humid.
5. Buff off with 100% cotton USA made towel.
6. On new paint, this should look very good. If fine scratches still exist, then wait 24 hours to repeat the Z-5 application (do not re-apply Z-1).
7. If you are happy with the Z-5 finish, then apply Z-2 after waiting 24 hours for the Z-5 to cure, let dry, and buff with 100% USA towels.
8. Should look like a mirror, and will be well protected from the sun and elements.

I do this in the spring and the fall since new and other than the inevitable rock chips on the front, the paint looks brand new after 43K miles.

Where do you live, maybe I"ll stop by and let you detail it!! LOL, just kidding. I actually take pride once I got her all shined up. But I definatly need a lesson in car wash 101.

To be perfectly honest, I would use CG at this stage of the game. Zaino is excellent for car care once it's been worn hard, but if you want to preserve it's beauty instead of cover up blemishes, CG is the way to go. Easier, faster, cheaper, and better at *preserving* shine.

Get a 350Z suspension, it'll look sweet, here's mine similarly equipped with the Z suspension:
