Well I been wanting to build a little thread, nothing crazy. As some of you already know (our FB page), I lost control back in Oct, but its been about 4months since I did that and finally Ill be getting my car back hopefully Thursday from my buddys shop. Just gonna give u a quick time line on.....

2001 330ci: did a lot of exterior work from front and rear bumpers to side skirts, spoilers, suspension and wheels. But wanted something different and just got bored of it.




So I decided I wanted to trade it in, for this! 2007 350z Nismo #354




But then one night coming off a bridge and around a turn...






Had damage on passenger side only... front and rear wheel,quarter panel, side skirt, suspension parts in the rear. Some scuffs on the rear bumper also.

As of right now, this is what it looks like. I wasn't in a rush to get it back cause our northeast weather sucks so it stayed in the body shop, now that its getting closer to spring, I need her back. Thursday I should be picking it up and bringing it back home to add the rest of my goodies. Ill be updating as much as I can.

 

What exactly happened? Another car hit you or...?

 

Bring it back man...

 

interesting

 

I must of hit some gravel right at the turn, spun out out of control and hit the curb on the other lane. Luckily there was no oncoming traffic.

 

I don't think I seen a Nismo with the carbon air vents on the front bumper, so I had some laying around that I ordered a couple months ago and the pattern is cut out already lol so I can't change my mind now.

 

everything besides the door handles will be color matched (black), I wasn't really a fan of the gun metal color on the bottom, and wanted to be a little different. I left the door handles silver to flow with my wheels tho. (side skirt is still gun metal in pic, just to give an idea)

 

Glad you're ok man and your car didn't suffer as much either. Nice Nismo, it'll only get better from here

 

just some of the goodies going on the car


Exterior: carbon air vents(not pictured) carbon cover mirrors, carbon rear upper spoiler, spacers w/extended lugs, muteki lug nuts, slotted and cross drilled rotors w/new pads, berks test pipes(debating still if want to put on) motordyne xyz y-pipe/straight pipe.
Interior: NRG wheel w/ quick release and hub, nismo shifter.

 

nrg wheel on a Nismo?? hmmmmm

 

here's a late night teaser after picking her up

 

is that a bad hmmmm or good?? lol

 

Nice progress. Did you keep the Weds?
remember seeing them for sale but then thought you decided to keep them and then for sale again.

 

yea I just ended up putting them on but still are fs/trade

 

ok well this morning I got to work on the rear... extended studs,new rotors and brakes and spacers all around, (fronts were done last week)

 

and the final out come,with crappy cell pics lol BUT! I just came back from a photoshoot... so as soon as the pics are emailed I will make a thread


Right Quarter panel that was hit, came out beautiful

 

Looking at your pics you removed quality Nismo suspension for stance crap!!

 

Love it but hate rear. If I was a nismo owner first thing I'd do is change rear to something sexy

 

only the shocks and it rides just as good if not better then my kw's

 

lol believe me... I wasn't a fan at first either but it grew on me
