Make my coupe a Sport..

it actually doesnt look like it will take that much to rebuild. The motor is fine and and everything...frame is str8 so you should be in the goods. New bumper windsheild and dash might coast you like $6K at the most for those parts. Plus you picked it up for $2K i mean thats a awesome price. Good luck with it! Alot of the guys here have alot of money to spend on whatever so they just think everything should be new, but good luck with it and keep pictures updated.

Dude, that car is rebuildable. Get a nice aftermarket Bumper & grill, a new door & windows, do a crazy stereo/custom dash since that's already out and you will have your self a decent G35. Don't mind the haters just do what you want to do with it. I think your already on top since you only paid 2 G's for the car as is.
Try the Marketplace on this forum, ebay, and some of the aftermarket sponsers from this site and you should find everything you need for the rebuild.
Have lots o' patience during your rebuild as well. Good luck!!

Also, why would you build a car like that back to stock? Thats insane. You will pay more for the factory parts to have your G look average, when you could pay less for aftermarket parts to have your G look one of a kind...well, kinda. Cool idea to rebuild, but dont waste it going back to stock!

I think he wants to modify it, but certain parts he's going to need to be original equipment, don't you think? Air bag for example. Read the whole thread carefully.

And not everyone thinks aftermarket parts could make this car look any better, not even mentioning the reduced value afterwards.
