Stay tuned for updates...

Looks like you're off to a good start man, do you have more mods done to it?

I havn't done anything else to it yet. And why don't you just come out and say "Why isn't my shiftboot and armrest installed yet you lazy bum" ( I know you were thinking it :D )
The shiftboot and armrest are version 2.2 and painting the stock wheels should be about 2.3. Check back 2moro!

Off to a good start.


I pity you having to drive on dirt roads though. Its like a back country G lol

^:bowrofl: Backwoods for sure! I just noticed the ONLY pic of it sitting on asphalt is the first one!!!

Lol i don't know how you do it. My car hasn't seen a dirt road yet, and i wanna keep it that way haha.

any more plans to the exterior? i would do the grille black with IP emblem, black window trim, colormatched door handles and mirror bases, black roof spoiler, m3 trunk lid spoiler, smoked tail lights, and havent seen an IP sedan with a stillen front lip, that would be unique ;-) oh and do the battery covers and engine covers white to set off the engine bay

Edit: i just noticed Janik posted mod suggestions on another thread as well lol, this forum is a bad influence on people, every1 spends an arm and a leg on mods :biggthumpup:

Well you're mostly on par with what my plans already are.
Next few items on the list are Wheels, flat black inside the headlights+projectors, black grille (maybe IP emblem, not sure yet) M3 Lip spoiler.
Later on, I'll be doing the mirror bases, battery covers (shaved), engine cover (part of it anyway) and the CAI all matched IP, with the CAI hose couplers in black
I also want to do a nismo front and 05/06 tails w/ JDM reverse lights.
Probably not going to blackout the window trim, I like it the way it is. I might colormatch the handles, but don't count on it.
I'm holding out for HIKKATADORI'S nismo replica, and I might get the integrated lip if it's not too much extra.

nice list of mods, +1 on the lip on top of the Nismo, that looks real good here's a picture of a black grille with IP emblem for motivation
http://i34.tinypic.com/2yorj45.jpg

I would be far more motivated if the IP was limited to the face of the emblem only!

that IP emblem is meh
just paint the grille gloss black and leave the emblem chrome
painted headlights would be nice

also clean your bay. lol

I assume you're talking about the engine bay? That's the sad thing, I have cleaned it a couple of times. I think those were the only times it has been cleaned since 02 though! I really need to get in there with some elbow grease.

^Get somebody to pave your road to LOL i cant imagine cleaning my car, then leaving it and it gets covered in dirt. Ugh, id go insane.

good start

Looks nice. Which 05 bumper do you have?? Cause it's not the front one...
