thanks for the comments. personally i dont know why i chose white. i kind of just randomly woke up one day and was lyk "i think ill paint my car white" and then wen i was at the paint store i upgraded it tot he 350z pearl white and put in a blue pearl. ill see if i can get my frend to take pictures with his camera. currently im trying to figure out how to get 4 tires with $60 :)

i cant find any pictures of the bodywork. i think mostly cuz i was pissed off everyday after sitting there and sanding for lyk 4 hours straight. i did that for about 2-3 weeks to get everything done.

anyone have any suggestions where i should mount my 3 gauges? i like them right in front of me so i can see them easily when im driving, but they look weird just stacked right on top of the dash lyk that. any ideas?

cut them damn vents and lines off side of front bumper and it'll look good :) the front bumper really ruins it tho sorry lol

j-lines? sizes? off ebay?

love whats you've done just not digging front bumper . looks good tho as a whole

for gauges either make a full custom cluster with led's or put to on steering column and one idk... molded in the door handle. theres a company thats makes those for rhd cars tho. lemme know if you cant find a pic

p.s. never put s14 se wheels on a wide body again ;)

I would paint the CF hood and hatch. There's something about an unmatched CF hood that screams "I bought this for attention". Other than that it's a beautiful car and I admire all time and energy you put into it. How did you do those headlights? They look extra sexy.
