Nice pics. You should get some heat dissipation with that hood, assuming it's functional.

What's the grill made of?

Considering rear wheel spacers?

The sunroof deflector and the side visors don't really go with your theme anymore IMO. The exterior is starting to look a bit "cluttered".

Overall, it's coming along nicely.

Different rims would set the car off a lot better.

Yeah i'd def go with something a little more sporty looking with the wheels, all in all its looking pretty nice, but a little over the top for me.

the tape is/was on because the glue was still drying.

thanks for the compliments.

if anyone has suggestions on new rims i'm interested. i'm about to buy 4 new tires and unbend two rims...and for that price i'm almost looking at a new set...so....any suggestions are welcome!

looking good.. I love the monotone/monochrome theme going on..

question: the Nissan wording on your calipers.. are they stickers? ad if yes, won't they "peel" off with the heat?

Fantastic. Hood was nicely done.

I'd lose the sunroof spoiler and wind deflectors... or paint them the same silver as your car

Fresh either way

Looks hot, but the only thing I'm not too crazy about is the sunroof wind deflector.

I just took mine off and I think it makes it look quite a bit better. The only bad thing is that it damaged the paint underneath where my sunroof deflector was so I'll need to touch that up eventually.

Well, I'll give you credit for good execution, and for that being the best-looking Invader hood I've seen on the forums. And I actually like the wheels, although they don't seem to go with the look you're going for.

That said, I still dislike the hood and think you have way, way too much going on between the hood, body kit, spoilers, ventvisors, sunroof visor, etc....Would look cleaner at least if you ditched the roof spoiler, ventvisors, and sunroof visor.

Also the grille looks a bit sloppy touch-up where you took off the Nissan badge, or maybe that's just a reflection...

Overall, good solid work but would have rather seen some of that cosmetics money going toward (for example) some nice brakes...which also look good in addition to the performance...

Just my opionion though...

thx irish!
i got the hood for free so i figured why not throw it on.
the vent visors i need cuz i smoke and they keep out the water when it rains.
the grill is spotless i'll get better pics if you're interested.
i was thinkinh about removing the sunroof visor will there be alot of wind noise when it's gone?
and i dislike the rear window spoiler now it's on. it was sitting in my garage for a year and i figured why not throw it on while everything was getting sprayed.

thanks for the input i value your opinion.

oh and i'm buying new wheels today! but you'll hate them. 20'' adr sterlings in chrome.

I'll take your word for it - must just be a reflection taht I saw

I've never noticed any extra noise without one. Then again, when I have the sunroof open I usually have the windows down too and the music up, so it's already noisy
