Looks real nice, but I think it would look better without the Mt. Fuji.

Dude, huge props for the effort and creativity. Your car looks super clean and slick. I like what you did very much, subtle exterior mods FTW.

looks great, I did the same thing on my WRX back in the day except I used spray paint and some masking. Not sure about the painted brake pad but overall looks great.

Looks great. I've used the G2 paint before on my Maxima, but I may try the decals this go around, nice classy look. $10 bucks for the decals is pretty nice. Do this at the same time as wheel spacers, nice evening proj.

Cast-iron with no paint. Not my car, but here's an example of what that iron looks like after a little life off the showroom floor:

Im really not a fan of caliper paint to make it look like a bbk but that looks pretty good.

A for effort though...
doesn't look busy at all...
and where did he imitate a BBK? By putting infiniti on it?


Looks great man!
