Car Accident Last Night
Well, I'm glad she's not mad at me. She's going to buy a Mercedes 300CE Coupe to replace the Mazda Protege, everything will be fine. Thanks for the support.

Car Accident Last Night
Well, I went to go pick up my girlfriend last night and right when we got to the bottom of the hill from her house we stopped at the red light. We were there for 15 minutes because there was a firetruck keeping one light green. Therefore, all of the other drivers began treating this situation as a four way stop and would take turns going. It was my turn. Little green pick up truck didn't realize what was going on. Now my mom's car's rear driver quarter panel is pushed in and the rear driver door won't open. Its driveable, but that was her daily and if she has to buy a new car she can't go to grad school. The really bad part is that the cop blamed it on me because my light was red.

Spoilers
I know showcar-bodyparts.com has them, but don't buy from them, they'll just rip you off. Other than that, I don't know, I've seen them on Z's for sure though, so they have to be around.

Hi there.
240Z - Shortest of the three; no emissions on the motor if you get a 1970-1972 260Z - Made for half a year, slowest of the three. 280Z - Longest, but doesn't have the horsepower to weight like the 240Z, but its also a very nice car and easily able to get fast as hell. 2+2's are gross in my opinion.

Off goes my baby...
Yeah, my roof was wavy as well, mainly in the middle, and what appeared to be an "elbow rest" dent above each door.

Paint Help
I'm using single stage because its my first paint job, and if you colorsand with 1000 it takes down the orangepeel, then you just buff it out.

Newbie 280 question
I'm not sure about the GL, but a 2+2 has rear seats. I'm unsure if they fold or not, but there are two extra seats which also elongates the body.

Hello
Welcome to the club. There are floor pan replacements, but I think you can only buy them in a set. I'm not sure about the firewall replacement, you'll have to ask some of the more experienced guys on here. Anyway, welcome to the club, and post some pictures when you can!
