Hi, guys. I haven't posted anything on the forums for at least a couple years. Over the last few month there was some exterior refreshing done to my 2003 Touring (yes, it's been 11 years...). I thought I'd share some preview pics, and if anyone is interested, I will keep updating and share some details.
Here are the pics:

The skirts, we decided to build something to fit the new bumpers best (at least to our taste). So we got another set of factory rockers, then the two pairs of rockers got cut up and welded together to follow the lines of the bumpers, retain that flair by the rear wheel and, once again, have factory-like fitment without getting permanently attached. Next time I am at my friend's shop, I will take some side pics and post them.
These are 2003 stock HID ones, with the projectors replaced by ones from Infinity FX. As far as the bezel, most of it was hacked out of the Infiniti housing, and missing areas were built up with epoxy and cut to shape that was needed. Also, the lenses are from Acura TSX.
BTW, has anyone noticed that the gray is not really Silversone?

It's actually not the original ings kit, it's a cheap-ish polyurethane replica. Since we were planning on doing all kinds of bodywork on it, the only 2 concerns were material compatibility and price. Fitment was not as important. BTW, the bumper is not mounted, its just resting in place on a couple of pins, when fully mounted, it will have a factory-like fitment.
