Everyone's changing up wheel set ups. So a buddy of mien did a chop for me just to see what it looks like. Lighter finish.

Lol at pink! it doesn't look bad though,

I like the silver though!

 

I actually have had a Strafe trunk sitting in my garage for about 6 months maybe it's time to get it painted lol and yea the pics don't do the wheels justice

Henry I'm not talking to you right now....bitter




@Son I don't really like the pink and the second one is basically like what you already have just lighter it seems like a lot of trouble for such a mild change if those are your options I would just stick to what you got already looks good anyway IMO

 

damn curryboy! that SH*T CRAYYYY
i freaking love your setup. tit sprinkles and all that good stuff

 

Looking good Vic. BTW, paint the "equip" engraving on the cap black

 

+1..

 

Vic , set up looks tity sprinkles!!!!
Can't wait to see it in person bro

 

Curryboy ur set up is ftw
We should have a white on DG shoot

 

I might just paint it DG I have some paint sitting around..

 

Here's my DG Coupe. Picked it up last week. Had to fly halfway across the country to DC to pick it up and drive it back over 1000 miles where it performed flawlessly. Laid down $10,000 out the door including all dealer fees. It's an '05 6MT with 62,000 miles. Salvaged title from an accident that caused the hood and grill to have to be replaced. The scratch damage on the upper front fenders looks like they ran it under something, but it almost all buffed out.

I couldn't be happier.

Plans are to push out the wheels with spacers, paint the calipers a nice silver or black, black out the front grill and rear diffuser, and maybe something with the headlights. NO DROP will ever happen. I already drag on some of the turns ins here in mountainous northern Arkansas. I also like the amber markers so they are staying.

It's not out of the question to get an aftermarket front bumper, but does one exist that keeps the stock ride height and goes along with the stocker side skirts? If not, the stock front will stay, and I will just have to find a damn DG tow hook cover (Near Impossible to find painted.... anyone?)

 

heres my work in progress...04 40k miles..6mt..all options..parted out and sold my vortech 350z and now in a G35 and starting to play with this..picked it up bone stock a few months ago..

 

 

Congrats on the pick up. You got a pretty good deal for a 2005.

Sounds like you already have a good idea of what you want. You can buy the silver or black caliper paint from Autozone. It was what I used until I picked up a set of OEM brembos from an 03-04 6MT coupe. To save yourself some headache and not get over spray on your car, just remove the entire brake caliper to paint it. Makes it hell of a lot easier to paint when it is off the car.

You can purchase a tow hook cover from Infiniti. They essentially cost next to nothing, but they are unpainted. I'm not too sure how much they'll charge you to paint it, but you can get one from the dealership.

Nismo front bumper works well with OEM sideskirts. It is a pretty common set up for drivers not wanting to go too over board with the exterior of their car.

Here's an image with 06-07 sport sides. The car pictured below is lowered though, but you essentially get the idea of how the body lines line up.

 

 

Heres mine guys
