That's how Infiniti should have done it in the first place, looks great!

OK, that's funny, but I think there's a compliment in there somewhere

How did you do all of that in 2.5 hours? You painted them yourself?

Looks good from what I can see.

THANKS! it does really look better in person i will post up more/better shots of it in the sunlight.

yea i paint them right on my drive way.. haha.. the molding and side view mirrors took all day since i had to take off all the door panels to take the trim off...this was seriously a pain in the ***.. i was going to do the handles the same day but ran out of sunlight.. then the storm came so finally got to do it yesterday!!

the door handles i just prepped on the car and only painted the actual handle that "lifts" to open the door.. i had to ball up some paper and stuff it under the door handle to keep it lifted so i can spray under it... i taped everything up but the "chrome"... i should off taken some pics of it bc i pretty much masked off the whole car just to spray the handles.... LOL. after that i installed the CF pillars which were kinda tricky bc those thing fvckin stick and hard to pull off if set wrong so everything had to be set in one shot... the jdm visors were cake.. found a technique to put them on nice and even! i installed the CF pillars and JDM visors as he paint was drying and by the time everything was installed the paint was still tacky (wet). prepping the handles took the longest.

sorry for the detailed description... hahaha. just like to share my experiences to the fullest for the ppl that want to know how to do it.
