Your wheels are teh suck and your paint job is even worse... If by "done" you mean that you ran out of money to do any mods properly then yeah, I agree.

Sorry man, I feel for ya. It just seems like that's something a mexican would do to his cavalier or shitty honda over in North Side, Fort Worth.
lolz not all mexicans drive cavaliers but on the serious note OP, you should take the car back n see if they could fix this. in the end if thats how you want it, its your car. not matter what you do you cant make others happy, so dont bother trying.

Take that kit back man, have them match it better.

After that is fixed you should get some better fitting wheels to compliment your aggressive body kit.

dont hate on us mexicans

The paint on the kit looks like a frost white, either paint the whole car or have them repaint that kit.

Still waiting on an explaination for the two different sideskirts

Listen, this is the second time Iv had it painted. The Nissan in Blue Springs Mo painted it and this is as close as they say they can get it. As for the side skirt, I just noticed it myself and I have contacted shine auto project in regards to fixing the problem. I ordered the kit and had it shipped to nissan, even when I walk out to the car Its very hard to notice and may not have ever noticed it if it weren't for you guys, so thanks for bringing it my attention.

At least your taking steps to get the correct side skirts...second, if the dealership is feeding you that BS go to a body ship with a good rep. They will say its difficult ti match but they will have standards before letting a car leave its shop. They will do it until its as close as they can get it. Unlike the dealership where their rep isnt based on paint jobs..they could give a sh*t less how it turns out.

they are only telling you this because their work isn't up to par. if they are incapable of matching it you should demand that they pay a capable shop to get it closer.

I would be fighting tooth and nail for that much. of course, before I'd let a shop do any paint work for me, I'd make sure they'd be willing to make me satisfied with the results prior to starting the work.

I called Nissan and I have an appointment on Friday to bring it back in to have it EVALUATED. I know they are going to try and ******** me but Im going to fight it. Aswell as the skirt, they open up here in 2 hours and 15 minutes so its a countdown. Im embarrassed that it looks this way, I have been receiving complements all week and I failed to notice all the FLAWS. So I do apologize and I didnt intend for this to be FLAME BAIT. I fly for Midwest, so if anyone see me today in DC feel free to slap me... Ill repost the details late tonight on what i hear back from shine. As for the Stern wheels... they are now 3 years old and need to be replaced. I was a first year first officer on a budget and they looked good at the time. But we can all count this as a lessoned learnt and an example of why not to trust a body shop at all times.... stay tuned.

Not really harsh, just telling the truth. Those wheels are $300 a set on ebay and they dont even come close to fitting the car properly, not to mention how bad the paint on that kit looks. It would look 500x better if it was just a stock PPW. If the owner thinks the truth is too harsh then maybe he shouldnt post up pics of his car.
