color change, 20's, s-tech's, ts front and sides, jic exhaust

I haven't really posted any pictures of my car on here since I bought it a year and a half ago so I guess it's about time

It's an 03 6mt coupe that was red when I bought it.

It had a few dings here and there, and some hail dings on the hood and deck lid so I repaired that damage and added top secret replica sides and front and shot it with ppg in the same titanium color as the new gtr's

I just recently bought some used axis mod 7's in 20x9 and 20x10 along with a set of tein 350z s-techs. I just installed those this weekend.

I plan on installing some spacers for the rear to even it out and I might change my tires out for some smaller ones. Like everybody else on here I really want to get some works vs-xx or volk sf winnings but I'll have to wait. I like it like this for now so I might start doing some engine mods next.

Let me know what you guys think

thanks o hella oem!

I'm not sure what to do to the engine wxp-g35. Seems like there isn't much you can do to these other than a turbo setup as far as bolt ons go anyway. I really want to boost it but I'm poor so unless I find a good deal on a used kit that won't happen any time soon lol

about a grand for materials, did it myself lol I'm an automotive paint tech by trade

I still need to colorsand and buff it out, just haven't gotten around to it yet. I sprayed it with my old sata 3000 hvlp and have since bought a new sata 3000RP which is laying out clear much nicer.
It looks like a factory paintjob right now, just a little orange peel. When it gets warmer I will make it more show quality.

By the way,I would expect to pay atleast 4K to have a color change done. You could get it for less but anybody good would charge you over 4K a really nice job would be even higher 5-6K

Color looks good man. Car looks nice. Just lose that TEIN sticker and your golden. That looks a little ricey. People will know your have aftermarket suspension if they appreciate cars. Just my two cents
