Default Just a few new pics... comments welcome!

... with what is going to be probably the last thing I do on exterior mods, this is my car after the INGS +1 sideskirts.

Comments welcome so bash away!





On this one a very good friend of mine is driving my car while I took the shots, thanks George (and you know I was absolutely serious about killing you if you so much put a scratch on the car! )!

Interesting... I had not given that any thought until now...

Anyone with a useful link on the topic?

Thanks! And thanks to everyone about the comments! Being compared to Leemik's is no small honor, although I still have a world to go to get to his performance level

Thanks ppl!

The front is made from two parts:

1. One CF cover that Nissan themselves sold in Japan a long time ago... I cannot remember who I bought it from! Talk about short memory!

2. The rest of it is a Top Secret CF front diffuser, it is actually a very big piece and covers pretty much the whole engine area. I got mine from the Bulletproof guys.

Your lift kit is too subtle, you should raise it another 3" to get over those big rocks...

^^^nah unless you like it slammed...but it's a nice 8.5 out of ten if I were judging....nothing wrong at all......I would just either carbon the sides or paint it to match, you know the lower part of the side skirt you already have...you can do the blacked out headlights...I'm not a fan but HID now that would be my move....


in pic one why does the lines halfway on your door go dull????

Even though I would like to lower it a tad more, it would be completely suicidal on our roads... this is not the States, so we do have some really rough roads out there and you have to go on them from time to time. This is already kind of bleeding edge if I want to keep the car in one piece for a while

King: I checked on the pic and found that I shot on a very shallow f/2.8 at 70mm. That puts the in focus area on the front a rapidly fading back. I also used a circular polarizer to remove certain non-metallic reflections, and for this shot it was probably taking out most of the reflections on that side (it only takes one 'pie-shaped' section of the frame at a time). The car was just washed/waxed!

Thanks again for all the comments!
