My new little 1/2 tag.

Never seen these before. So picked one up at Tricity Nissan (www.nissanpartasap.com) today. I like the fact it doesn't drop below the bumper. Shiney!!

Just Eibach pro kit. Looks lower because the offset of rims and width/size of tires.

PM me your address.

It was rainy and overcast, the pictures/angles honestly don't do it justice. Also just realized, first images I've posted of my freshly painted rims. It's like a graphite gray, bright and shiney in the light, darker with a hint of metalic in the shade.

Must be nice living in a state that doesn't require a front plate. Damn I hate that crap up front.

Thanks!
Lip and side skirts were done the cheap route with a rattle can. It's a medium gray but is chipped now from debris. The car will be getting all new paint in a year or two, so I wasn't concerned with having it professionally done right now. It will all be body color when done. Thinking about blacking out the side mirrors like on the 3rd gens.

Still no address! LOL!! Eh, unless wifey wants some foldy mirrors, I'm not investing anymore into what will be "her" car.

I've just picked up another grill so I can finish the one currently in my car. If I, or my wife, decides to keep the new grill, I will contact you first to sell this one, after its completed of course.

Understood. Not my first choice either. But, hada full size version similar to this but with the Nissan emblem in black. After about a year though, due to road debri and weather, the black had already begun to chip away. Figured this would keep appearances longer.

Great suggestion.
Here's my old tag just for comparison.
