thanks for the kind words. the photographer is still learning and was looking for local cars to shoot. I think he did a decent job. He just posted a few pics last night so didn't have much to choose from for posting here. I figured 3 were better than none.
To answer questions...
When buying the front, you have the option to get the upper intake hole or have it filled. with my TT kit, I figured it was better to have it filled
we took pics of the rear, but don't know if they turned out or not. Hopefully they did. Will post them when/if he releases them
The car was not fully repainted. we did not blend, just did a decent color match. The bumpers are nearly perfect and am very happy with them. I need to repaint my hood, and sides. In certain conditions, the sides look really off, I think the flop is off. Either way, they are very 'sandblasted' and need to be repainted. the hood is just in the usual oem nissan peppered with rock chips condition.
as far as the sides go, I passed on them. They are merely small "flippers" that accent the oem sides. I like my USDM nismos so I figured I would keep them. That said, having the strosek setup all around would be cool.... but then would I have to get the wing as well?
