Man, it feels great to see a project come together like this. I know its not the fastest, the wildest, or the "sickest" G35 out there - but ITS MINE!!!!! Done the way i like, and man it feels like a $1,000,000.00 when im cruisin; through town!
And that's what matters. Looks really sweet man - no doubt it's one ANYONE would be proud to be rolling.

Congrats on a great looking car and excellent taste.

(has anyone told you pearl is a chick's color? )

Gorgeous car. Yes, as Geewillie says, very nice taste in style.

Would it be a pain to do a quick breakdown on how much? Doesn't have to be too detailed just $blah blah for parts, $blah blah for body shop work, $ for misc.

Just curious what a nice job like that goes for.

Congrats.

Glad you got rid of the CF hood...looks way better. Also, that is probably the best IP paint match that I have ever seen. Can't really even tell. How is the fitment on the replica fenders? Are the side skirts and rear rep also? If so, how is the fitment on those?

Thanks for all the comments!

Pearl is a chick color - good thing ive got Ivory Pearl!

As for pricing - ill let 350zforums tell you the prices of the parts. All parts are replicas. With that said, the shop that performed the job said that the parts all fit well - but needed some work. however, they also said, that most kits need work - replica or not - so it wasnt an issue. The paint was an issue because its Pearl Paint - and the matching (esp on IP) is tricky. they actually blended the entire car (-roof & rear quarters) to make it look "almost perfect." The fenders required some serious effort, but in the end, it all turned out really well imho.

Total cost - approx. 2200 and change + 2 cases of Beer for the workers!

The mesh was provided by www.customautomesh.com - Looks Great! Great Prices!

Also, the Watch is a custom made Aqua Master.....2 Karrots worth of Diamonds!

Looks awesome. Still not liking the KS rear, but everything else looks tight!

Thanks for all the feedback - i know the KS rear is kinda hate it or love it - but i am one that LOVES it! I still remember the Blue G that first surfaced with this kit back in the day - man i was hooked! a few years later, BAM, its on! Love the way the GreddyEVO2 come out the bumper ~

That's a great looking car
The exact combo I've had in my head.
Like the all white rear bumper too.
Good to see proof that these replica kits are OK after all the arguments on here that had become tiresome.
We should be able to import and license Skylines down here in Aust in 3 weeks (at last !!) so I will be on the lookout for my own IP coupe soon.

Your car looks too busy. Kenstyle back on an IP does not look hot. Take those things on the doors off. I like the fenders. Anyway just my opinion but enjoy! : )
