Finally! New Pics of my 02 SE. 56K lookout :)

So finally I've got some new pics of my car! I've been stock for so long and after so much anticipation, the weather has finally allowed me to start working on it. I still have a long way to go, but I'm taking Baby steps so that it comes out right. Much feedback is apreciated. Tell me what you think.

Here's a before picture:


And now the afters:

19" x 8.5" Alessio F1's with Nankang NSII 245/35/R19's


Before Drop:

Maxspeed Springs
KYB GR-2 Struts
Custom Enterprise Smoked Front Sidemarkers
WeatherTech Weatherflectors

I need to have my front bumper, hood, and rear bumper repained. The Genuine Nissan paint is nearly gone on the front. But that will be fixed within the next couple weeks. Any suggestions on what I should do next? I might be adding front and rear lips.

Thanks guys! The ride is pretty good actually. Kinda close to stock and not harsh at all. I need a RSB now, because the back end of the car is all over the place around turns.

Car looks awesome Clark...i guess my next suggestion would be 20% or 35% tint depending on what you think you can get away with and a RSB as you mentioned...makes a world of difference

True, but this rim is hot as hell. I personally like them better then the millies because of no freakin rivets in them. Rivets look good but are a PITA to clean and will never own them on my car. So I say excellent choice on rims man, looking good.

I really like Maximas on 19's. I'm either going with 19's or 20's when I am ready to do wheels/tires.

Repainting the nose is gonna run me about $750. I will post some pics of the pitted hood and bumper.

Should I get a CF hood? I was considering getting one since I need to repaint my hood. I will paint my calipers as soon as I pick up a new set of rotors.

Kruppa - I have 35% tint all around. sometimes it doesnt show in pictures, but I person I think it looks perfect since its a dark car with dark interior.

Hct67 - I originally was going to go with the G35c's, but I wanted to go all out with the 19's

Max20SE00 - Hit it right on the head! I like the Evos, but not crazy about the rivets. I love the clean look of these rims, and the color is amazing! It goes perfect with the color scheme I'm heading for on this car.

XGasPaCho - I am counting the days for CE to have them! The tinted ones are great, I'm still debating whether or not I should put white bulbs in there.

Keep the feedback and suggestions coming!

Hey, i just got an estimate to repaint and refinish the nose and rear bumper of my car. I got a total of about $950. That includes, Hood, Bumpers, and both fenders. I will post pics of the hood and bumpers later tonight. Is this a good quote? I got it knocked down from about $1150 because I would remove all the lights and grille to reduce labor costs and plus my "hookup". Obviously I'm going to a good shop to get it done right...
