Majestic Makeover update

I got my lip painted finally, rear bumper fixed-repainted, 6k top and bottom, and new 01 se tails. A couple of us went out as a crew to do a photoshoot this past sunday. I'll let the other guys post their own pics of choice. Enjoy...

What you need is Brasso, just make sure to mask off the paint.

dont be bashing that bad angle lol i laughed too cuz my head is not that long forreal. the ladies love them both though haha anyway nah i dont have any sound clips. it sounds like a deeper toned Z but just like one in higher RPM's. Didnt i buy something from you before? mudflaps? or something



I got lazy on the headlights for the shoot. when i polish it, it lasts about a week or 2 can you buy this brasso stuff in the store?

I like the dual tip exhaust look like the cattman also. i might be switching but thats a 30-40% chance right now. when i get the stillen rear it'll cover the can a little and wont be as bad. but people who drive behind me complain or move over cuz i keep the thing shiny

You can look in Home Depot they sometimes have it. If not, just go on eBay. After using that stuff, put 2 coats of wax. They should last much longer than 2 weeks.

Did you see my post from above? Try out this: http://www.amazon.com/3M-Headlight-L.../dp/B001AIZ5HY It's actually meant for headlight restoration. There's a youtube video to show you how to do it as well.

car looks good, never really seen a 5th gen (or 5.5) in that color. it looks good and the g35 wheels go perfect with your car, only thing is that you should try lowering the front a bit more.
also if you get new headlights make sure whenever you make long road trips to tape up the headlight because dirt, bugs, rosks etc from the road is what makes them fade or haze up...

Nice color. Maybe it's just me or the angle, but it looks like there's a small gap underneath the headlight

Looks good! Get some of the 3m headlight restore kit, you'll be surprise how well it works.

if i lower more up front I'll look like a Funny car at the strip LOL the tires in the rear make it sit up a little, but i'm considering coilovers and lower profile tire in the rears soon. I'll take u up on that when i go outta town. good idea
