never thought of it. I dont think its worth doing the 1 VC, and if you do both, its going to look like a VG30.

This looks like a waste of time and cash. I just don't see enough of a difference to justify it. Maybe if someone was going to give it to you and install it for you.

The red is paint.
Oh so this really isnt a joke. I say dont waste your time.

How much is that "dress up" kit going to cost? I would just paint the Nissan logo a contrasting color to the car and forget the other crap.
