Installed the K&N FIPK - the car sounds amazing. I seriously never thought a V6 could sound so deep, throaty and loud before the exhaust. Definitely a great purchase. Once I finished that, I washed and detailed my baby.

Very nice! How do you mount your license plate with that bumper? I ask, because I have that front end sitting in my garage for a couple months and could see where the tag goes. Also, did paint, keep, remove the mesh grille? Thanks!

Gave her a nice wash inside and out! Also went to a Nissan dealership to pick up a touch-up paint pen...however the pen doesn't work . Going back tomorrow to get a new one so I can fix the humiliating chips on the hood and front bumper!

Thanks! Since it's illegal here not to have a front license plate I had to have one so it's held on by zipties onto the grill and the grill came silver but I hate the look of silver mesh so I had it painted black

driftmax NZ had a clearance one it was all bent and damaged though, it took quite a bit to make it fit and look good but I think it was worth it

True. We have good weather here in SoCal. I like to drive with my windows down instead of using the AC! If anything, I can buy a new vent and switch back
