Hey guys, going to share my facelift and shop experience. I went from a Shine Nismo V2 and 07+TS CF Hood to a Shine Amuse front bumper with CF diffuser. I had the hood painted, but left the vents CF. I also wanted the paint to fade into the CF by the vents and towards the top. Wheels and door handles painted SB as well.

Shop review: I can't say enough good things about both these guys.

Ken @ Shine is a great guy and customer service is top notch. Quality of the bumper and diffuser is amazing and I couldn't be happier.

Makito @ Seven Apple is another stand up guy and took great care of my car, he does great work.

Enjoy the pictures.

Better shot of the diffuser in the sun, notice the CF vents. The CF stands out nice when in the sun:

My God, that is beautiful. And that is one hell of a wax job.

 

i kinda liked the V2 better for the front. the details of the amuse front bumper and diffuser gets lost in the black. on other colors, you see that the diffuser is actually a secondary part of the bumper. on black it just looks like its one part with the bumper. the painted hood looks 100X better love it. time for tint or overlays for the tail lights.

 

sick! What did you end up doing with your V2 front? Wanna sell it?

 

very very slick.

Approved.

 

Thanks for the compliments guys.

I hear you, it's hard to capture the CF on black. White and red can pull it off much better. I don't have the nicest camera, but in person it's pretty easy to see the diffuser seperate from the bumper. LOL, how did I know you were gonna say tint the tails?? Should be in the works soon.


Sorry bro, it is already on it's way to the new owner!!

 

Now tint those tails!!

Looks good

 

i love your car, it looks great

Hey Kal, looks a million times better. Seriously. The two tone look is so boy racer.

 

Thanks guys, I am really happy with the way it turned out.

Lol, I know. It looks much cleaner now. Did you ever decide on a new car yet?

 

looks good

 

I like your new set up muchhhh better, the new wheels just put the icing on the cake. Nice work Kal

 

Wow man! You have the same taste that I do!! I went a step further and shaved my door handles and side emblems! Car looks great and I can tell it probably looks even better in person!

 

Nice, I'm planning on getting some paint work done there.

 

looks great

 

Damn! I should of went for a black Z!

Those center caps are kind of out of place don't you think?
