Your definately heading in the right direction with that car. Cefiro style looks much better IMO. The R34 lights remind me of honda accord lights. And those nex coilovers must be good because everyone in NY loves them and your roads up there arent the best by far.

Both headlights look good but i personally like the r34s a little better (for looks obviously). The drop with the coilovers is perfect, looks real good, how much did those run you?

the gold would match his badging. Id have to see a photoshop tho cause the gold might look way too blingy.


Btw, you should paint the kit! (or send it to me)

Let me rephrase what I said. The R34 lights do look good also, but I personally prefer the cefiro stlye. As far as a retro goes, R34 FTW

I think the gold badging needs to go wether he does the gold wheels or not. Either way he goes though, it'll be hot.

NOOO!!! dont do a Sarona grille. I personally think they look ugly. 95/6 grilles are the best for the 4th gen IMO. If you dont like the nissan burger, paint it black or simply take it off but im willing to bet you will regret the sarona grille considering how clean the rest of your car looks.

Drop looks much better, but you really need to paint that kit and cover those rivets/screws used for the front lip.
I also think the gold wheels would really nice on the car.

about your coilovers, are they the GT or just regular NEX? Do they have dampning? I am really considering them myself. how much did you end up droping it? axle angles really bad?
