Super jealous.

PLEASE dont ruin it!!

Although from the two things you've already said your going to do, I have a feeling it will end up that way...

At least tint to windows evenly!!

You bet! I think they came out on the newer ones. Laverishevo also ran a set on his old LS400.

hurley what wheels did you have on before? i ask bc your fender are pulled so much that you must have had an aggressive set, either in the past or planning to. the car looks great!

I rolled and pulled the ****** out of the rears before paint because I plan on stuffing at least an 11" wheel back there in the near future. I swooped these sc430 wheels for $200 with tires on craigslist and they are just a temporary thing but I actually really like the way it looks with them!

Looks good, so you had a color change from that goldish/silver color to black? Onyx black?
If so and if you dont mind me asking, how much did the paint job cost you and was the door jams/engine bay repainted as well?

the color I painted it is acutally an Infiniti color. Malbec Black Pearl. Its got super dark purple metallic in it but pops nice when the sun hits it. I work in the collision industry so the paint job was only 300 dollars in materials. The jambs are getting done eventually but have not been painted yet. I'm working on two toning the interior black and beige right now so I will do the jambs when I have the sill plates and pillar trims off for the vinyl dye process
