Oh nothing. Just more work. When they did the bumper the first time they used a lot of putty on it. When my nephew stripped the paint down he dug into some of it. So I had to block the primer out and reprime it. Fender is prepped for paint. Just have to sand bumper in the morning
aaaaaaaaaaaaah, have to vent.... i hate apts.... i had 2 new people move in recently well one of them must smoke like a chimney and i can smell that sh*t in my apt..... not only is it making my apt stink but it is messing with my asthma......
after looking and front ends, i really like the nismo v2 and v3 the best. now the ones i see what are known for quality and fit VIS or AIT any good?

Travis - I think an N3 would look better with your car because it matches the year and the hood? and I have to buy an N2 or i'm going to explode - http://www.octanemotorsports.com/Nis...duct_info.html - I like poly better - my personal experience with both has led me to the conclusion that if something can shatter into 4000 peices it will - and poly just folds like rubermaid -
fwiw travis since your car is black - you could even get away with leaving the bottom lip portion unpainted and any bends or scrapes wont even effect it at all - I had a front lip on my supra made out of this stuff and it was like a floppy rubbermaid piece that would never die - i loved it, i also before, had a carbon fiberglass lip.... that was redicuoluus and lasted 30 minutes.................

yeah you did.... okay so i do like the n2, but it has the lines for an older hood....some pics show it some dont....i bet it would be diff for the 07-08 since the hood changed... all the pics i have seen show the "small" hood
DUUUUUUUUDE, that is freakin sick looking. looks a little diff from when i got it one year ago.. most recent is far right, eibach spring just installed in that one

they are sitting in my garage.... BUT whoever had the car before me must have sprayed cleaner them on when hot, all the clear coat was peeling... annoyed the crap out of me so i rattle canned them black. my plan is to sand blast em, powder coat and get rid of them

Travis, this may just be me but IMO put your money into shiet that actually affects the performance of the car. It already looks good out of the box lol. To each his own though and I'm delicately not bashing on people that do appearance work to their cars but I'm purely function over form. It all depends on what YOU want out of YOUR car though. Just food for thought.
^some people are all show and no go. I did appearance first as it was cheaper. Now that i have that out of the way im deffinately all go. One day ill make it to the track.
Travis if you need some paintwork mayb we can work a deal for those wheels. I always wanted a set of those for some reason
