Exclamation WOW!!! How Time Flies... Before & After...!

Just happen to glance over at my AVATAR and........ Member for 3 Years this month!

Seems like yesterday..... When I joined and received my:
2003 Chrome Silver Performance 350Z.
Nearly 3 years and @ $7k, I mean $10k (add another $3k for my forthcoming Audio/Video setup!) She's still running strong (stronger!) and looking more stunning than ever...

Yep. I agree. I bought mine on April 2003 & it's running stronger than ever due to all the mods. Here's some before & after pics as well .

For someone that seems to have so much money to drop on toys (you love showing off your stereo, bigscreen tv, and bragging about things like that such as telling us you've spent 10k on your car), you have terrible grammar. Pardon me if this has been asked and answered before, but what field of work are you in?

Nice car though.

I just HIT the 2 year mark myself... would post before/after shots, but it still looks the same as it did before only with tint... spent all the money on other types of mods.

Kinda like your "Ex-Girlfriend/Girlfriend" threads. Leave it up to you, to ruin a nice nostalgic thread bro... But have you noticed... I never "hi-jack" any of your threads/posts. You should try that.

If you must know, I'm a Mortgage Broker. And I didn't know you were a member of the Grammer Police? I'm sorry... I meant to say 'upcoming'

2 years, 6 months of owning the car, but only about 18K miles. After 2 transmission swaps, an unsuccessful "attempt" to fix feathering, replaced window motors, fixed rear axle clicking, replaced rear hatch springs, and probably other stuff that I can't think of off the top of my head, the car runs GREAT!!! LOL I'm still loving the car.

No use in posting before/after pics since all I got is a K&N filter and grounding kit, hehehehehehe. I chose to spend my money on other things (house, bike and plenty of booze).

I'll agree, time flies!!!

Decided to move this to the 'Body/Exterior' section. More appropriate.

So let's see those pics people!

How long have you been a mortgage broker? I know it's way off topic but I'm trying to get into that field and am taking the appropriate classes. Was curious if you had any tips or advice.

What a great idea for a thread....in fact I think it was you who I first contacted when I was looking for a wing for my car. Been very happy with it!
I've only had her a year, but the changes keep coming....inside and out!

You're right! I remember that! I believe there is like one other person who pulled the trigger on this spoiler that I know of here.
I see you have the VARIS AirDuct. Mine is in route! How do you like it?

I love the varis airduct...people turn heads to see what's going on with my car...just like the old days.

The only problem is now I'm looking for more carbon fiber parts to match it....it's going to get $$.
