The rear tires sidewall is too small IMO, even with a drop Id say that.

Color looks great, wheels look great too. I just cant get over the hood. The front vent reminds me too much of the neon SRT hood. Everything else is win. Here in the NE we cant drop our cars to the ground, so I'm with you on that.

i bets one of those colors you just have to see in person to appreciate like the lambo satin white. not the most photogenic but it really pops in person.

You need an interfooler until you go FI...

Did you get my PM
Lol@ interfooler! I just bought the blue tape and paint, but I am REALLY iffy about doing this myself. I think the bodyshop would do it for free. I just dont like the fact that it reminds me of overspray or something. I want black and CF to be the contrast points of the car, ya know?

I normally don't say things like this, but that color is pretty gangster. The only thing I don't like is the hood, but the car is real nice.

Cool

Well, this is pretty much it. These are a few my boy Elkanah took on the way home as the color was starting to change. I always thought it was cool how the car matcheds the color of the sky at dusk. It's a real headturner.




















And I bought a little something to remind me of what my next major build is:







Tested at 47,000 RPM @ 3psi Thanks for all the help, insight and criticism/compliments along the way guys.

I think it looks gorgeous man. I am not a big style of the hood itself, but I think how you painted it is really nice!

Ended up at about $3700 for materials and labor. The effing pearl cost was outrageous at $175 for 8 ounces or something like that. I definitely want painted 06+ lights, just not right now.

when i first saw the sample of the paint color i didnt think it would look good... but i gotta say it looks awesome on the car.
i love the originality, most people are way too afraid or criticism on here. nice to see someone can be different.

Paint color looks sick... The paint quality is probably a huge upgrade over Nissan OEM.

after seeing these pics the paint job actually grew on me. one thing i have to say... your hood doesnt match the rest of the lines of your kit. your kit has dope angular lines and you hood has alot of curvy accents in it. overall you did a great job man. now drop that bish like a clingy side cnt....

Looks hot! A HKS or TI tipped Motordyne exhaust would really set that rear off. Change the rears to LED's /n ur done
