Thumbs up New guy. TONS of pics. 56k-go to sleep.

Whats happening guys, new guy over here. Names Andrey. After originally wanting a 6mt, i got a 2004 black on black g35 coupe 5at after about 3-4 months of searching. I needed the car asap in order to get around in NC so i had to settle. Slightly disappointed but it should do for the time being. Got it for 12,000 with 59k miles, one owner and was garage kept. Was originally listed for 14k but i put the seller in his place haha. Anyways i have a ton planned for my ride hopefully i get to doing stuff soon. Just moved to NC from NY so the drive was satisfying to say the least. Seats were real comfortable, only had to stop by to get gas a few times. The only thing wrong with the car is the common gas gauge ghost. Anyways enough talk, on to the pics, enjoy.
Here she sits at the dealer.



After I got it to my brothers house in NY, FILTHY.


The drive from NY to the Carolinas.


After the 10 hour drive, the first thing i did was debadge and give my baby a nice bath.







Missing the tow hook cover and the front license plate was previously installed


Amateur attempt at photo shoot with a cell phone


Then came my little project. First covered the third break light while i wait for it to get a little warmer and redo the tint. Then i had to do something about the rims. Couldnt stand the 17" while i wait to get my real rims, so i had to improvise and work with what i got. Hate it or love it, its temporary.







Tire shine did the trick.



And if you havent had enough of pics, heres a bonus.


Hope you guys enjoy, thanks for sharing your eyes.

When you do your drop make sure to post what you go with and how you like it. What kind of wheels are you looking at?

Im looking at the Avant Garde Mesh deep concave 19's. New headlights are definitely what im searching for but cant find exactly what i want; the oxidation is BAD even after some help from plastix. Im looking to get the projectors with blacked out housing but cant find any without having a halo ring. Any suggestions where or who i can get them from? I check the marketplace on a regular basis and cant seem to find anything. Thanks
