Dstonz, stripes make everything else look out of place. Those belong on a Honda imo.

You asked for feedback. Mine=remove them.

It's your car though.

Nice idea (I had thought of doing something similar before) but in execution it just doesn't work. That's why I didn't do it

Personally I think you'd be better off buying black/smoked side markers and silver signal bulbs, looks much more classy:

Welcome! Nice 1st post.

Clean Z, I actually like the look. Get the Acura RDX shorty antenna for $15 next. mho

You can change out the side markers to clear or smoked, but Nissan is required by law to have the front side markers amber. That has been the law since 1968. Did you ever wonder why the front direction indicators are amber? They have been required since 1963.

Front indicators can be white or amber here.

Stripes match those wheels nicely.

So,
UPS delivered my wheels to Z1. Does that count? About 33 hrs away from install.

My boy John must have a sideways IPhone, haha.




Pics from shop on Sat. And yes, taking the bathroom scales.

Burnt Titanium bolts from dressupbolts.com for my timing cover and intake/exhaust cam covers. Still need to get my extra timing cover polished though...
