Everyone Has One So... SkylineGTR2789's Progression Thread

I got the car back in 2008 and got the itch to mod in 2009.



Added some LED





Debadged and some other small things





Then was lucky to have a friend who basically gave me his Z tube and I bought a 5/16th Plenum Spacer to compliment it





Upgraded to stock 18" sport wheels





Got my current set of new wheels





Then I bought Cobb Springs and Overlays for the tail lights







But before the wheels and drop I got in a little accident with a few trees





Got a barely used 3" y back after a while to change the exhaust note a little bit



Got the Nismo Bumper put on this year to replace the old beat up one



And here are some pictures I just took today















Future Mods inlcude
Painted OEM grill, Coilovers, Wheel spacers, New cat-back exhaust, Carbon fiber trunk and rear diffuser , and a paint job (OEM paint is horrible) but im leaving it black




More Pictures on Pages:

wow! your car looks great!

I also have 521s, but ordered an 8" front cause I was worried about fitment, I will post more pics after i drop it in the next week or so (tein s techs for 350z). Its hard to find these wheels in canada other than the current flat black.
