I actually don't haha. Looks like a stock bay with FMIC piping and less vacuum lines. If I remember I'll take a quick picture tomorrow.

I'll have to see if I can find some pics. I'm on 300zxclub.com using this same name. My Z does get parked for the winter, that's why I have the Audi. But one time I had it out and a small snow storm came out of nowhere and put about an inch of snow on the road. That's how I found out it sucks in the snow. I'm sure it didn't help that I have 17x9 wheels on the rear.

Ok so I finally got my HID kit in the mail yesterday only to find out that one of the connectors is broken. I don't know what it's called but its broken clean off and the peice wasn't in the box, which makes me think it was damaged before shipping, which has me angry. I filed a claim with DDM but haven't gotten a response yet. I will call them Monday. The kit was a 55w 5000k slim ballast kit. Here is a picture of the damage.


Also, don't forget to vote for me in the Streets Are Life contest on facebook! I got a late start so I need to catch up!


The top wire of the top connector.
