Guys I decided to hold of on the rims..the offset is week and they are only 8.5and 9.5, Its a good price but Its just not exactly what I want..I dropped my car off at a shop today to get an estimate on the side skirt install, they said if they dont fit right they wont take the job so hopefully there wont be any issues...Tony you drop off your car at the shop? If I run into any snags I might be taking it to your guy.

Matt, I definitely think it's a wise decision to hold off on those wheels. I kinda thought the same thing about the weak offsets. I'd say you'd want 10.5" and 9.5" haha

I should be hearing back from that shop today on the vinyl as well.

PS - This may be something you guys already know about... but check out this site I found browsing the sedan forums.

They have relays and modules to make it so you can:
-Roll windows up using the remote
-automatically press OK on the navigation every time you start up the car
-automatically turns VDC off
-push-button start button (genuine OEM Nissan)
-Automatic mirror tilt when the car is in reverse.
-Automatically locks the doors at a programmable speed, and unlocks when the car is either put in park or shut off.
-BEEP module rather than a horn honk to confirm vehicle locking
-2-step module
-Other misc. stuff

I thought these were some pretty sweet add-ons.. especially the window roll up one

-__- huge buzzkill. Did you get to visually see how the fit up against the body? I guess what I'm asking is are they just being lazy... or is it a real problem any body shop would have?

I think they are being lazy..they are poly, they require some modification and stuff to fit 100% and I guess they just didnt want to mess with it..they dont really do a lot of custom stuff..most shops around here wont even touch it. Im gonna take them to Tonys guy on saturday to look at.
