Yeah, he took the kit and test fitted it. After he figured out what he was going to have to do, he called me in to show me and make sure it was ok then proceeded to hook it up.

Thanks guys. Glad so many on this site like it. Makes me feel good

And the pics got me too when I went to buy the car, I figured out he just painted them... Loser... Guess I'm one too for not repainting them yet or buying the real deal...

I'd have to agree with this. OEM wheels with 20mm front and 25mm rear spacers and you're set.

The wheels look OK, but the offsets definitely should be more aggressive. If it were me I would paint those brakes black instead of having them the fake oem brembo color from the previous owner.

The driver side side skirts and part of the front bumper needed some work but as you can see fits great! I am very pleased. Hopefully a CF hood will be next and a double din. Not much engine work will come till later when I get a truck to DD.

When I bought it... It was lowered, had a front lip and all the lights were smoked.





Since December I've added the full Nismo V2 kit, 19 inch R1 Hype wheels (better tires coming later this month), and a Magnaflow single exhaust (got it cheap).







And got my wife to do some modeling on it out by the lake a few weekends ago.



Hope yall like it.
Clean set up dude.. who made those rear wing?

I will paint them black, just been busy but I should move it up my "to-do" list.

Personally I'm just not a fan of stock wheels on about any car. The 06+ stocks are some of the best though

I would like this sideskirts and rear wing done to my car too.. it looks awesome and not too fancy, what brand are those? But I would like to do the wheels differently like 19" flat black rims, and stock front end like ur previous setup .. how much did u spend with the body kit? Thanks
