You have just about the nicest Nismo I've ever seen! Although I imagine black is a pain to deal with

Yes, big pain. Swirls, dirt, rock chips ftl. I like the contrast between the silver and gunmetal on the front and rear bumper. The lighter color Nismos have a completely different feel.

It was a cheap sweet deal. You could have traded your way to them if you really wanted too. I've seen your work.

I almost bought a black nismo a few months before I bought the silver one - went to the dealership and the paint was all beat to hell, it was all swirled up and etched to hell with water spots. I asked them to detail it and then let me take another look, just in case it was dirty. It came back looking even worse, i think the guy rushed and fubared it. And the interior smelled like mold. Needless to say that deal didnt work out.

But in good condition i think the black looks the best!

yup, car was on the drive-up oil change lift at a local shop where i normally go to do stuff myself for free. The handling feels a lot better afterward during corner and turn.

Installed my new Pioneer AVH-X3500BHS

Super happy with it.
Just need to wire up the steering wheel controls at another date. All the instructions I found didn't seem to really work for me, I guess I will go at it again once I figure it out.

I would write car wash but being that it's black, I'd post that every week.

Use Axxess. It's works remotely and works really well. Only down side is you will have to splice it into the stock harness. As long as you saves the stock plug-in you should be ok.

Got some red 3m interior molding trim and messed around with the interior. Got the idea from E Tempo.

I did buy the Axxess but I still was not able to figure out how to get it working correctly. I checked out the instructions on their website which is supposed to be for our car but my harness was definitely different. And I know this certain harness is for the steering wheel because I plugged it in to the stock radio to check, and then unplugged it to make sure that's what it was.

You have to cut the stock harness and splice the Axxess into it......

It works great also. Only downside is you have to splice. If your not going to part back to stock it won't matter. If you are, just save the stock part and wire it back in.
