Is there a place that has fender covers that you can use on a Z? You can't just use the generic kind, because the fenders on a Z are much wider than your average car. Something maybe even with a big Z on it would be good. thx

Has anyone tried to replace the rubber squeegy on the exterior window ss trim on an s30 door. I've seen that you can just buy the rubber instead of the whole trim piece but have never heard of any success stories of installing new rubber. I am curious as to how the staples are used or reused to put the new squeegy on. I want to powder coat the ss trim black and need to remove the squeegy. I don't want to screw up a new 150$ set if I can repair the old .
