Before and after pics of my car. 1 year since it was stock.

First pic is about a week after I got it... I put lowering springs on it before I even took the first picture. Otherwise, I've done full boltons and the obvious exterior mods as well as a ton of other small things...

Looks pretty good. This is just me, but I personally like the look of the stock 5.5 headlights, rather than blacking them out and such. But to each his own.

Looks great, subtle but specific. I like the black headlights, contrasts to the rest of the car with the black on gold appearance. Do you have black interior too?

Oh, and of course track editions are sex.

Sadly I have the grey interior. It looks pretty darn good with the titanium edition accents, though.

I've always liked the blacked out front on the newer nissans (headlights/grill) and couldn't resist trying it to see how it looks. IMO it makes the car look worlds more sporty. I've never been a big fan of chrome, though, so that could have heavily affected my opinion.

Most people liked this look on my car best... Just not my thing. I think the wheels are too busy/sporty for the car and the chrome blends in and makes it look bland.



Direct comparison to a current pic.

Yeah, definitely looks better current than this or with the G35's. But I'm a big fan of the Track Edition's. Makes your car look a lot more clean and easy on the eyes, unoffensive, everyone has to like it. I'm with you on the chrome, the only thing on the outside of my car that is chrome are my lugnuts

The track editions just look SOOOO much better with some color to them... They look crazy when rolling and are just sexy in general when sitting still. The flat black just didn't do them justice.

He could go lower in my opinion. If he could go down like a half inch in the rear and level the front it would be perfect!
