Paintin the headlights was much easier than I thought. After heating the lights up they just peeled apart. The biggest problem was painting the bezels in the cold last night and dryin it with the hair dryer... but it worked really good. Putting everything back together was the biggest problem b/c I had to touch up the paint a few times bit nothing too serious.

I have to use some polish to clean up the haze then it will look perfect. Planning to do that when I swap the lights today before I put in my bumper..


I think I am still high from the paint.

New look for the front. The factory painted headlights look so much cleaner and flow better with the car than the ebay projectors. Rolled straight down out of the driveway to compare to the AIT front which scraped if I didnt go at an angle. Checked clearance and damn..

Installed the stop tech rotors and hawk pads. I actually broke the front pass 14mm caliper pin bolt b/c I torqued it at the wrong spec and snapped it . I Hit up Nissan and got it for 7 bucks. The front bolt that holds the caliper to the hub/rotor torqued at 113 Took me about 20 minutes to knock the rears free b/c they were rusted to the hub. PB blaster was my friend. After the install, bedded in the brakes and it smoked pretty good. Not sure if it was all the goop I put on the back of the pads or thats just what happens. After I went through that process it cleared up. Drove it for about 30 min and it was good to go



Painted the rear diffuser to get an idea if I want to paint it permanently matte black and it came out pretty good. Def gonna get the rear bumper resprayed and matte out the diffuser.



Plastidipped the wheels ..

Thanks man.. Yeah def feeling the body set-up.. The front bumper mad a huge difference. IMO the wheels look 10X better. Chrome can only be pulled off if you got some Works like Sir Lancelot. Was hoping to catch up with ya'll (< getting you guys ready for FL) yesterday but that damn bolt snapped.

I got alot of sh^t done this week. Im dying to get those wheels.. I actually had a dream I was rolling on them All I have left is to install my coils when I finally get them, wheels and repaint rear bumper. I replaced all my Interior LED's and license plate lights the other night when I was drunk at 2 in the morning... huge difference.

Gonna put up my projectors/ oem brake parts/ o2 sensor/ and R33 spolier I used to have on, in the driver site and will try to get enough dough to get a new multi media unit b4 we go. I got a buyer for these wheels for a grand

Gotta start modding somewhere. Now I can test fit the Work vs-xx's and decide if I am going to keep them on or wait till the coil overs.
