Ram's car, I was tired of being cold so photos slowed down and nobody else wanted to take pictures!

Ram's getting his lights buffed and then taking some quality photos for us!

 

Harmon's car, 2003 RSX, This is one of the worst bumpers to take off, still easier than new Mercedes and new Audi's, but still a really big bitch! Harmon is also off to get his headlights buffed!

yes, the red on the lenses is over spray. Don't trust body shops or car dealers, I hate being the one to tell you your cars been hit before and trust me, when I pull your bumper I know within seconds and with a lot less evidence than over spray!

 

Johnny's, this bumper sucks a lot! Lots of very poorly placed bolts, Nissan is not known for this, but Johnny informed me that the second gen G is actually rated very highly in worst cars to repair when in front end collisions. Now I know why. His turned out great though, I've never done a second gen or a white car so I was definitely happy to do this one. New cars are always a learning experience and this was no exception.

 

how much of a disadvantage do i have if I have 04 reflectors instead of the projectors? I can't paint the entire thing black right?

this is what i really want to do https://g35driver.com/forums/body-in...ht-thread.html

 

wow, the new lights on the 2nd gen white G look deadly

 

Random shots of the day














Yes, this is what time I started my car to go home. I was lucky enough to hit the ****ty traffic on the 410 as well lol

 

Great work Blain, and yes the blacked out headlights look fantastic on Johnny's white Sedan.

 

^+1

 

You know what else black headlights would look great on.....

 

hummm, I have been thinking about that

 

I'll say!! We Alberta boys would like to hear lots more about taking the bumper off a 37 since we'll likely tackle interalian's IP sport coupe at the end of Jan. And if we wreck his car, he will cut us up and feed us to his GF's rottie (reminder to self, bring Xmas wrapping paper for Rottie defense).

Maybe we'll look for a DIY on myG37 in the meantime.

 

Great pics Blaine... and truly agree, what a pain in the a$$ mine was. The blood at the top of the headlight on the fender definitely proves that, hahaha:


And thanks for the compliments guys, the lights do look hot. I regret having waited that long to do it. what a difference. now i just got to hit the grill when the weather gets a bit better to finish off that blacked out look.

 

any of you guys have a driver side projector style headlight bezel for sale. I did the whole 05 painted headlight with the halo eyes but i got bored of them so i got some 06 projectors but the bezel has a few cracks on it. So i want to get another one and finish painting it and get them mounted. I went to part source and got some abs plastic epoxy but i dont know how the paint will cover it..

 

if you scuff the dried epoxy you want to paint over with a scuff pad or high grit count sandpaper, it should paint over it just fine.

 

awesome i will do that thanks
