Looks very good, btw, I don't think the origninal seats were Z32. They may have been 3000 GT. BTW, good choice on changing it out.

Having owned an 80s 300zx I am 100% sure that is what they are.


Here is a picture on an 87 300zx I found on ebay.

Cole again great job, the only reason I said anything about the seats is that they are definetely not out of a 1990 + Z which is a Z32. Great job again.

Yeah, kinda my fault anyway. I typed "90s" when I meant "80s".

The car looks great. I am seriously thinking about painting my carpet black now. Yours looks really good. I have that biege paint. I thought maybe i could paint my carpet to make it look better. Would beige work on the carpets?

Matt,

Looking at your other thread and the pictures I think you should give it a shot.

I found this project very satisfying. It was a big return for little time and money invested. Sometimes a project like that is just what you need to find the love for a car again.
