Default My car has come a long way...

...or so I tell myself. :7:

I don't think I have any pictures of my car when it was completely stock, but you all know what a stock coupe looks like.

Here is my first mod - a modified stock grille. Needless to say, that came off the car pretty quick. But hey, it was one of a kind.





I think my next mods were the Nismo front and SP grille. The Nismo front was a magnet for rock chips. :7:









Then I got my drop (350z H-Techs).



Then came the wheels, finally. At this point I had sold my Nismo front/SP grille.







I think my Data Systems R-Spec grille came next. Around this time I also put on my HKS exhaust. I had a stock exhaust with an e-cutout prior to this.



My best mod, Charlie.









Impul sides from Eric were put on just after the pics with Charlie.

















Then came the Mt. Fuji emblem on the Data grille.





Tein Basics went on last Spring, but I didn't drop it more until the summer. I think I got tint before I dropped the car...



This is after HIN Nightshift San Diego, aka when I slammed my car.










^^^damn that mad camber! :7:

-3 Camber...



This summer I got around to painting my roof black. I don't really have any pictures of the black roof alone, tho. So here is the black roof with Eric's Inven Roof spoiler.





Somewhere along the line, I painted my grille black and put it on, took it off and exchanged it for the Data grille, and switched back again...LOL

Here it is with the black grille (most recent picture)...



I have both the black oem grille and Data grilles, so I change them periodically just for a change of scenery. I'm sporting the Data grille right now.

not bad. I think the OEM brembo brakes would look great with your ride.

I still want to know what centers those are, I think with those centers, I could figure out an even more aggressive setup that would clear the stock body.

Dood your car looks frekin amazing. It is soo clean and tastefully moded. Keep up the great work and just for the record I prefer the after market grill with no emblem.

P.S. Keep it slammed !

don't like the way the negative camber looks in the front...looks a little too "gangster" to me.

still a nice G.

It's painters tape to prevent rock chips. Doesn't harm the paint when you remove it after your trip.
