The paint looks awesome. It looks really good in the back with the debadged trunk and red/clear tails. Not so much a fan of those style rims but the paint work on them looks like it was done very well.
Can't say I feel the same about the front. Frankly, the smoked headlights and fog lights along with the red Nissan emblem look awful. I can't help but think of Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer looking at those front end shots. That emblem just sticks out way too much.
You put a lot of work into that car and the dedication you have is admirable. I'd say black out that emblem and de-smoke the lights in the front and you'll be set.

I wanted the emblem to be black with red letters but they mixed it up buy Idc it's better than stock and the reason for the heads is that they are so beat up and I didn't have money at the time to buy new ones so I painted them but it had to be dark so u can't see the imperfections and the two cracks on the headlights

Hey dude, You did a good job on making the car look different and deffinetly very sick. I like that black paint with the touch of red sparkles in the paint and the red rims to match. I can see that you also tinted the headlights but they are to dark, I was thinking you probally were gonna do the headlights clear/smoked corners and lenses. I think overall that car is a beauty.

So I bought a ypipe and got it yesterday not even thinking about if my car is a fed or Cali car and turns out I bought the fed spec ypipe and my car is a Cali spec so now I gotta figure out now to use my 96 fed max as a donor without making either car not drivable bc I need both

ready for the weird part neocry, car ran fine for about 30min or so , no lights on no nothing ran mint which with my luck is very weird , but im being told that it leaking out which is bs bc there waas no oil on the road or on the towtruck bed but i going with that they only put a 2 quarts in it and blah blah blah that its my fault which is bs but i spoke to service manager which i know and he said they sent the block to the race shop and i spoke to them and they are looking into doing a high compression 3.0 and throwing a 150shot bottle in for free , or do a 3.5 swap and build that block also for high compression but if i chose the 3.5 that i got to pay for the tuning and swap and pretty much more than half of the price , so i think i leaning toward the 3.0

i spoke to the race shop they found a low mileage 99 3.0 motor so they gunna pick it up and then take it apart and replace everything that needs to be replace, and put in new stock parts. Should i just ask them to build it for high compression since it will be apart, now or just leave it with stock compression, now i want more power out of the motor without having to spend much and not having to sacrefice mpg
