Its been a while, but she's finally home

If any of you remember, back in November I got into an accident. Rear ended a Ranger that stopped short. If not, here is a pic.

Well a after a few months of waiting my turn to get into the shop, Here she is....Finally. I know some of the pics are dark, but better ones are on the way.




Let me know what you think. If you want a better shot of anything, let me know. I got a lot of help from you guys, and I really appreciate it. If money orders are Accepted, I'll be glad to give some of my hard earned money to the org.
Kevin.

Looks nice, gee it's that rare blue that's going on and on and on in another thread! BTW you need to spend less time working on your car and more time on your house!

I'm mean that's what your title says: "It's been a while, but she's finally home" What a sh*t box!

Thanks for all the comments. Maxrb8, I really hope you're not trying to be funny...and if you are, you better work harder.
About the hood pins, Don't get them. They are Junk. I'll get the other part out the trash and show you what I mean. I'll be switching to gunmetal hoodpins in the next few days.

vsamoylov-Let me do some quick math for you.
Hood-320
Lights-220
Bumper-78
Radiatior-130
Paint and body work(straightened rad. Support)-425
Grand total of $1173.00....Insurance cut me a check for 3300.

Nismotic-Nissan emblem is getting painted to match the car...couldn't do the chrome. The hood is a GTP(Importfan.com)

Notorious_LAO-Hood was 320 altogether.

I think thats everyone. About the bumper lights, I haven't decided yet. My brother tells me to get clears again, people tell me Smoke them...I don't know. For now, they are staying the way they are...I'm becomming partial to the ambers.

Nice! I'm a sucker for smoked Cefiros! As for the bumper lights, I like the amber and I think smoking them would look great!

Damn, I didn't think i'd get this many responses...I guess its time for some replies.
For the one's that asked about the fogs...yes..I'm looking for a set right now. Its hard to find the Brackets and everything all together.
Brooklyns, That Millennia is my Brothers. Its an S, and it still can't keep up with the Max.
Daniel.Castillo- I got the headlights from Liuspeedtuning.com. Yeah, I had to do a little cutting and splicing of wires...overall it was worth it if you ask me. I paid 220 for them. Go to www.redlinemax.com and they have a write up about the instalation.
Everyone else..Thanks for the compliments.
