A new Nismo has been born!

Well, in two weeks I have gone from stock to...
Lowered on Z springs
Painted Headlights
Painted Grill
35% Metallic tint
LED's everywhere
Sevas S-55 20's on Yokohama s-drives
Nismo body kit.

Coming soon, 05 reverse lamps.

Pics are dark and the car is in serious need of some polish to reveal some fresh clear coat but.... here she is!

Week 1


Week 2

Week 3!!!

Great start.


IMO you need to go lower.
And I'm not a fan of the blue lugs since there is nothing else blue on your exterior. Red or chrome would work better.

If there is any color that the Nismo kit makes an instant hottness on its white. Nice job on the lights and grill too.

I still think adding the Nismo kit is one of the best options for the 03/04s. I love the transformation. Good upgrade.

agreed.


OP, nice work. I don't think you need to go lower. Red lugs would look hot, blue is decent too. You need a lip spoiler imo, cpe midpipe and HKS. Darker tint on the rear doors/rear window would look hot too.

here's my baby(black).


Silver G for pic referenced below on rev. lights.
+1 on the 05 reverse lights coupled witht the 2003 tails....05 reverse lts and HKS is coming real soon to a black G near you

thanks

Thanks everyone for the posts. I am looking at getting a g2 med lip spoiler. Also, I actually just got it tinted yesterday. I like an even look all around, I think maybe I should have gone with 20. They actually cut around the 3rd brake light when I asked them not to so they are re doing it next week. Perhaps get 20 on just the rear window? Any thoughts?

yes, darker on the rear window. The rear window will always appear lighter b/c behind it is a non-tinted windshield when you look thru it.

lets say the driver side rear door was tinted, but the other rear door wasn't--it would appear lighter as you looked thru it. make sense?

Congrats on awesome upgrade Nismo FTW! Be careful in NJ, a friend of mine got a ticket for having the 3rd brake light tinted because the officer couldn't see it clearly i know you live in NJ just be careful with that.
