Default Nismo Differential Cover Installed - '05

Hi everyone - after staring at its beauty for a couple months, finally got the Nismo diff. cover installed.

I really like the look!

I've got some before and after pics as well as during install:

bushings were in great shape - car doesn't have too many miles on it. And yeah probably didn't have to fully pull out the diff but to get it low enough had to unbolt it fully so taking it out wasn't too bad.

I highly recommend doing it ! It is only about $100. It's all about the subtle changes.

On a related note - on the test drive after install was done, a 370 Nismo pulled up alongside at a red light. The guy was pretty doouchy, wouldn't acknowledge my thumbs up or look over. So when it turned green, I hit it a bit and of course he did. We were even until I got off it at 50 and he kept flying on. Was fun. Definitely think mine sounded better
