My rear skirt is mangled pretty bad - especially around the tail pipe. I guess I have to cut out the whole thing and reweld another one. Im exploring alternatives, but I dont really like the rear ground effect kits too much although it seems like a good solution to solve the cosmetic problem. Has anyone every replaced this part? It looks like I have to cut it out and hire a welder. I cant find any bolts. I was hoping for a bolt off / bolt on job. Do you have a straght one you can send me? Am I missing something? It does have to be welded, right?

My z just left for the body shop and I need quarters, rockers, floors, and rear body panel. I need to get these parts fast. Anyone ever buy used parts from here? www.zcarsource.com Where would you suggest that I buy these parts. Are full quarters available? I am not interested in zedd findings because shipping would kill me. Thanks

I'm debating what I want my car to look like when I get to the painting stage and I was wondering if anyone is still selling ZXR decals? I'm starting to think a Black ZXR would look sweet! Also where might I find one of the rubber whale tails? I'm also trying to think of some other colors that would look good, any ideas? Thanks.

I've read the chrome painting method posts but could't find any on using some kind of tape for the window frames. I've seen Z's with the chrome painted and I've seen them with some kind of matte black electrician's tape looking stuff applied which I would prefer to do. Has anyone done the tape method? Recommendations...ideas?

Just got the car painted - I will post pictures once it is back together. While I was removing the exterior trim for paint, I broke the tail light panels off of the rear tail lights. Did'nt learn on the first one so I proceeded to break the other side also. I want to find carbon fiber panels to replace the old. Does anyone know where I can find new originals or carbon fiber replacements? These are the grayish suede looking pieces that cover the back end around the lights. Thanks for input!
