Only one or two with body kits.

Some cities are modded-third-gen havens. apparently, LA isn't.
when were you here? and why didn't you say hi?

How did you make the eyelids and what are they made out of?

The horns are a nice upgrade, u buy them from nissan new? how hard to get the bracket right?

I never was. I was just paraphrasing stuff John said about the satisfactory quantity of 3rd gens in the Chicagoland area. I have never been west NOR south of Charlotte NC. Nor North of Greencastle PA. I've been to Cape Hatteras though. Trust me if I were ever visiting one of you guys' area I would let you know. But as far as I know it's just me and Aaron92SE here in NC, where 3rd gens are concerned.

i was going to the park and was searching for a good shady parking spot. Found one next to a Super White SE. Don't know the owner but i think it's a girl based on the seat covers.

yeah that's the original paint (my car is VERY dirty actually, lol), my hood/roof/spoiler have oxidized paint..the rest of the car has minor scratches all around (none from me.) I'm gonna get it detailed then a paint job then tints in the months to come.

AM- Car looks like it had an interior swap. VE usually has tweed or leather not the velour that it looks like you have. also you need to secure down your spoiler corner other than that nice pic / car

94maxshima: wheel wells? i always go from top to bottom (wheels included)
Internetautomar:lol maybe mine is one of the rare ones my mom had it before me and she's the original owner. It's a 93 SE Automatic..which i'm going to get rid of in the future

as for the spoiler: yeah i've been meaning to ask you guys about that! my mechanic told me i should look for another one because the support is worn(on both sides) so should i just use crazy glue(as ghetto as that is) to secure the one i have or look for a replacement?

hah, why the question mark after wheel wells. I occasionally take off my wheel and clean inside with an abrasive brush then dry and use a plastic/vinyl shiner so they don't have that dusty/dirty look when the sun hits on them.

nope its a common interior in the later model SE. I had it in my old 93SE and have seen it in many more.

here is a shot of mine and I imagine how his looks (its not the early type velor)...

what does that have to do with anything? I have seen the same interior in the 92s as well.

what I meant by not being the same velor as the early models is the 89-91 style velor. I have seen the same cloth interior I had in my 93 in 92-94s.

I am pretty sure the cloth like I had (and that guy has) is standard, the tweed was an upgrade (or maybe the other way around...dunno) and the of course the leather.

2 had tweed, 2 had leather.
the 93 VE5 I'm looking at has leather.
of the several other vEs I've looked at up here, none have had that interior, maybe it was a southern option
