Talking Finally got my car back from Bodyshop and Mods

Hey guys.. after LONG~~~ 2 months of waiting I finally got my car back from M1 Autosports... NOT perfect.. but i couldnt wait no more

Anyhow. I just installed Nismo Front bumper, Nismo Exhaust, Engine Damper, Pop charger, Greddy Air Difuser, RHC4s, HAWKs breaks and MD Plenum spacers..... let me just say WOW

What a difference these simple mods make.. WOW.!!!!!

I am going to wash my car tomorrow. so i should have some pictures up soon

Right on! I wish I could have stopped by yesterday to take a look!! Maybe next weekend..... Sorry to hear about M1 , I'll let you know if I have better luck at DTM with David. Make sure to post pics tho, I would love to see ur mods!!! I'm having a nismo replica body kit installed on mine right now too, so I'd really like to see how your front bumper looks!

Sweet ride! Congrats on getting the car back. So in the end, would you recommend that shop to others (from your posts I'm guessing no, but maybe they cut you a really good deal or something in the end).

well. to answer that question.. i wouldn't... and yes in the end i did get some what of a deal.. but i would pay extra to get it done right the frist time and be over with it.

but i guess if you like pain and stress.. you could take that route

Brian, your car looks SWEEET! The nismo bumper looks good on the roadster! I'm going to check out the fit on my kit tomorrow after work. If all looks good it may be done by this weekend!!

Your ride looks sweet, nice job.

hey rick thanks for the comp~
Hopefully yours gets done too~ lets meet up and check out each others cars.
fittment on bumper is OK... i mean its after market.. cant be perfect.
however paint does not match. you have too see it in person. Silverstone has little bit of greenish tone to it.. bumper has gray tone to it..

so i might take it back to david too

Ha ha, yeah, it looks very similar!!!

Silverstone does seem to be hard to match, and yeah it has kind of a greenish tint to it. Hopefully mine will look good. We should definitely get together when I get it back, you are very close! We should for sure cruise to the performance meet together... I was planning to meet with the group that ed is organizing....
