Please tell me you got his contact info Zack, I'll need a set in the future.

I'm sure I can get a hold of them... but shipping is going to be pricey. Plus I'll have to setup some kind of minimum order since there are so many startup shops copying body kits these days - and I'd hate for them to get replicated without this guy making some cash first.

That's cool, I'm not ready for my mini widebody conversion yet, it'll be a few years.

the sedan should of been like that from the factory. Same front end as the coupe. Kind of how the honda accord coupe and sedans are and the civic coupe and sedans, they look the same

I love how in Japan they put the Mt Fuji symbol and people here put the Nissan emblem.

I really don't understand why Nissan/Infiniti didn't use the same front end on both the coupe and sedan. Coupe looks soooo much nicer.

Anyone else notice the one in the mag had the USDM battery cover? The coupe front conversion is awesome.

The LR sedan coupe conversion looks awesome. The color looks surprisingly good too. Works very well.
