Anyone else in Denver? I'm floored by this car, love at first sight/drive, 82k, 2006, shark injector and a few other upgrades. Any advice for keeping 'er clean would be awesome

First, congrats on the new acquisition :thumbsup Since you're over 5,000 ft above sea level to start off with....invest in some quality detailing products for your black ZHP. Take your time getting to know your car and look everywhere to see what areas require immediate attention regarding cleaning....engine bay, door jams and such....

Don't expect to have everything to perfection in a relatively short time.... focus on getting the paint cleaned and then have a good protective coat of sealer and wax. Then you can move on to other areas to detail...

As for maintenance, there are many useful threads here on this forum where you will have lots of information at your finger tips.... if you have any question you can either post a thread or you can PM people here :thumbsup Enjoy your ZHP ownership :biggrin

Thanks everyone. It's Jet Black with Black Leather and Xenon Bulbs. Yes, last owner was a member. He did not have it long, original owner was in California. I feel very lucky to have found it. I'll admit I did not know anything about ZHPs when I first contacted him, but now.. I see that it's more than just a good looking ride.

How do you communicate the meetups in Denver and surrounding areas for future ones? Where do you guys go? Time?

I was wondering, is it normal not to have the badge on the trunk for a zhp? I like that its not there but just wondered if the original owner removed it or something 14195
