Get the rookie bumper. And start to mod engine.
Do you only wanna look fast or do you want to be fast?

wow, that is the first sedan i've seen with a strafe rear that is not black, I have the same one as well, does not look bad but I just not fond of the flap..

However, the sides don't work well with the strafe, I think it might be the extra line groove that is throwing me look off..

but good start, keep it up...

It's your sedan and you mod it like you want it! Great pics, though! Nice progression. Another alternative for the front may be to add a color matched lip to your stock front bumper.
I'm also doing the 18" coupe wheels and it's not gonna be temporary. They look great on our sedans!
Keep it up, man and have fun!

i'm probably going to get a lot of hate for this, but performance is secondary for me. i'm trying to make my car look presentable first, then just get bolt on mods.

i'm just trying to look fly

thanks for the comments and criticisms guys, maybe a little more criticism than i was expecting, but nothing i can't handle! i'm thinking the rookie bump does look awfully nice..its definitely between that and nismo. thanks for the tips!

anyways, i picked up those coupe rims. here's the outcome:





enjoy!

also, my old rims are for sale, let me know if you want them

pretty big difference with the coupe wheels..the more I look at the strafe bumper, the more it is looking better too me..which is a good thing since I have it on now..

Definietly waiting to see a front bumper so see how it really flows..good progress so far..

I guarantee you the strafe rear bumper looks a million times better in person.

coupe rims are a nice upgrade. Kurookie front would go well, but get some Nisrookie or Nismo sides stat.

this is the only picture i have of it. i am the second owner of it. its fiberglass. i did do a test fit which i will also try and find a picture of right now. the previous owner had to repair and area of it im guessing due to a crack maybe but not 100% sure. its completely un noticable though.
