Default My "New" S-Tune look

Components are listed in my sig.

Its not really new, I had the work done last Jan, but its been so rainy I haven't had a chance to get a clean car and photos, but here there are







My engine bay and my mini-me Autoart S-Tune Z.



Its not as wild as a lot here, but looks just right to me.

Thanks, for the replys.

The lip is the US Spec Nismo lip, and its just painted black to go with the 2 tone paint scheme.

The eyelids don't interfere with the lights at all.

While I agree that the Nismo wheels would look great, I love the Rays wheels too. I just can't justify the $2K for the Nismos when I like the wheels I have just as much.

Very Nice! You need to get the Nismo wheels now? That would really finish it off.

Nice. Now you need 'Bat' to make you some little tiny eyelids and rear corner overlays so your model will match. I'll swap you a set of little 'track' rims for your set of little Nismo rims too....

n8vz, I did all the graphics myself. I try to do as much work as I can on the car. I am limited by space and tools, and do know my limits (Performance Nissan did the body kit).

It was my first time applying graphics, but if you take your time, it is doable. Its one of those projects, that if you really screw it up, all you have to do is take it off. You will be out a few $s, but no permanent damage will have been inflicted on your car.
