My Mystic Adventure...

[cakM3]

Slowly getting my interior put back together as doing this has not been my top priority over getting all my maintenance up to date.

I recently sourced replacement A/B and C pillars I could use so I got them and finally installed my C-pillars this afternoon.



Installing my C-pillars today made me realize I need to pull my headliner and refinish it so it looks new again. I will be doing this in May when temps are better.

Making progress ahead in the meantime

I just purchased the Turner Triple Baffled Power Steering Reservoir for my ZHP tonight. Pricing for this kit went from the usual $312.99 to $203.44. I could not pass on this so I will be looking forward to taking delivery of this part to install in my ZHP once it arrives

Funny enough I just purchased a Gruppe M intake from vivid racing and just emailed them to see if they are able or interested in sourcing this lip.

What’s the shipping look like?

I’m surprised you’re not going with an Alcantara headliner. I’m debating between that or an oem-like material.

I will know more when my contact goes to Japan this Spring.

I prefer to keep everything as close to OEM where my interior headliner and pillars are concerned.

The c-pillars I recently installed aren't in perfect condition but are much better than the c-pillars that were on my ZHP when I rescued it. I will be sourcing a brand new right rear c-pillar (already have a new never used left rear c-pillar on hand) then once my headliner has been refinished I will be installing my new c-pillars with the refinished headliners.
