Default '09 facelift! only mockup.... but yay!
My new Seibon CF hood with the newer style hump instead of the lines. This was a last minute change and I am thinking of having the badge and lines shaved off bumper and having it repainted. Love the look so far! can't wait for repaint and good pictures! Also there's a guy in town that DESTROYED his '08 headlights with overspray and by attempting to install strobelights (3" bar strobes laying in turning signal bay ) resulting in the HID ballast being soaked in water. He was very happy to trade me my faded out working '04 lights for his busted up '08 ones.... and wow! with a little TLC they look better than brand new! Very lucky find.... a set of '08 lights for an $80 ballast! again. Anyways... here's pics of the bumper just set in place until my ballast gets here tomorrow. Feel free to comment on the shaved bumper idea and maybe getting the CF eyelids again.








old...

Yup, I hate it when I can see right through the floor. Looks so tacky and just ruins everything.

Put back on the underpanel, shave those lines on the bumper and your golden! What a steal for those headlights too.

The front bumper doesn't flow with that new hood as good as it does with the stock hood, mold the indentions and it would look better.

Minus painting the OEM's red, and the Nissan logo red, doesn't look bad at all.

If you're not looking to pick up a BBK, powder coating the stock calipers black would look good.
