spoofan Posted January 11, 2017 Author Share #4 Posted January 11, 2017 siteunseen: thanks, I know of this kit. I was looking for original in good shape, if anyone was selling. But I will probably end up with this kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Namerow Posted April 24, 2017 Share #6 Posted April 24, 2017 Unless you get really lucky, your going to find that the original vinyl isn't worth re-using. Reasons: The old vinyl will likely have age-hardened in the locations where the factory adhesive was applied. So much so that it may have chipped or split along the edges. The hardening makes it difficult to make a tidy job of re-gluing the pieces into another car. BTW, If have found nothing (including 'vinyl softener' products) that will permanently re-soften this vinyl. Conversely, one of the bigger vinyl pieces -- the one that covers the transmission tunnel -- actually sags with age and ends up showing big, nasty-looking wrinkles that are very obvious. It's really difficult to make those sags disappear when you re-install the piece in another car. The old factory-applied adhesive is going to need to be removed before you can effectively glue the old pieces into your car. This is a long and tedious job. I recommend you just buy the kit. You'll end up with a better result and no one will ever know the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spoofan Posted April 25, 2017 Author Share #7 Posted April 25, 2017 Namerow - thanks for suggestion. Are there any differences (regarding looks) between oem vinyl and z-store? http://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/CTGY/classic08a02a Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Namerow Posted April 26, 2017 Share #8 Posted April 26, 2017 I can't comment from direct experience. I'm sure that someone else here has installed the aftermarket vinyl pieces and has pictures they can show... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zKars Posted June 9, 2017 Share #11 Posted June 9, 2017 About the only consistent complaint about the repro vinyl I hear is the looseness of fit on the rear strut towers. Otherwise the fit and appearance of the diamond embossing is pretty darn close to stock. I think I may have a new set of the repro stuff I'd let go cheaper than MSA's price if you decide to go that route. Let me know at z240@shaw.ca Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NVZEE Posted June 9, 2017 Share #12 Posted June 9, 2017 Related question, maybe its own topic: Will repro vinyl fit over insulation like Dynamat on the tranny tunnel? Seems like it could ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
