2k3 I30/Maxima Progress / NewPics

Hy guys!!

In July 2010 my car was destroyed by heavy hail.
The insurance paid me 7100Euro.

At this point i got an k-sport airride and 20inch chromewheels...
I put a lot of money in my car.

I went to the body shop guy, he did a lot of cars arround.
I told hin what i want from him...

Plan A:

24inch wheels... but its not allowed in germany... sucks.

Plan B:

"I want candypaint and a big slam on 20ich wheels".

He said ok!

But you have to wait... he has a lot of cars to do.

Enough talk... get some pics!

Fender pull









Ready for paint:



With Candy:










Its almost done... 4 to 6 days and everything ready.

I will post new pics next week... hope u guys like it.

There is a short vid, how can put in my post?

Robert,

Looks great. Is the double din radio and the screen with the OEm mechanism still installed? I am thinking about doing the same thing, do you have anymore photos, and a description of how it was done?

Thanks in advance, looking real froward to the finished product.

So he can't have 20s, airride, a paint job and do engine work? I guess you can't have both SMH

Yap right. All EU cars have those side markers. Safety component.
New cars have that in the side mirror...

dude...i hate you with a passion( j/k)!! i actually thought about doing something like that at one point before but soon realized it was gonna be too much $$

you're definitely settin higher standards for the rest of the I30/I35's [dammit]...

car looks sick, props for doing something unique...any plans for different rims?

Maybe it's because I hate red cars, but I think the color, while nice, looks like crap on this i30. The wheels are equally ridiculous as well, and the grill.....smh I can appreciate the money and work that went into this though.
