Spent a silly amount of money getting all 7 seats and the headlining steam-cleaned, but it was definitely worth it. Interior came up much better with a professional detail. Also, some more quick photos. Needs photoshop coilovers hehe

I'm still loving the fuel economy.

No mods to report. New centre console lid latch arrived, so I put that on today. Unfortunately didn't match my trim colour but it's not like you see it with the lid closed anyway. So now I have a functioning centre console.

And chucked on my JDMST sticker. The Skyline feeling lonely in the reflection. I drove the Skyline for the first time since I got the Cube today. Feels like I'm sitting on the ground compared to the Cube. Gone are the awesome viewing angles, comfy suspension and light steering.

The Cube's come with a massive, obnoxious aerial which makes it impossible to go under tree's, into carparks, etc. I installed a much smaller aerial today. It was listed as being for a 350Z but came with universal adapters. It also hasn't affected reception at all.

Ordered:

*Genuine Neoclassical Kit

*Genuine CUBE3 Side Stickers

*Genuine Bonnet Sticker

*Genuine Cargo Net

It was always my intention to have the neoclassical overfender & sticker kit on the car, I just had to wait until I had enough money because it's not cheap buying brand new genuine Nissan. But god it'll look great once it's on. At the same time I'll get the little ding that came with the car on the rear bumper fixed and resprayed. Happy :D

My kit and stickers arrived last week but I have a mental dilemma. I'll be respraying the rear bumper to get rid of a dent that it came with from Japan, and at the same time this will take care of the colour-matching issue the bumper currently has (that is a normal thing being that the paint on the plastic ages differently to the paint on the metal over time and pearl white is the worst colour for showing this.) Now obviously the paint on the front bumper has done exactly the same thing. I'm thinking if I go to all the trouble of doing the rear and then not doing the front I'll keep looking at it, knowing it doesn't match and regretting it. Arggggh, I hate feeling the need to repair something that isn't broken.

Looks like I'll save up to get both bumpers resprayed and the kit and stickers fitted professionally. I know the kit and stickers are something that I could do myself, but I'm always scared of screwing up things on the body. Maybe best to leave it to a professional?

    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long time  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like
