it cost a grip! about $3000 for rims and tires... they're 18s dropped on tein ss-p. yea i got it repainted because the clear coat from the factory was coming off and it wasnt that great when i bought it from the dealer brand new... but i didnt know any better. sooooo i got it repainted nissan super black with 3 coats of clear after 4 years of owning the car... plus i didnt like the blue hue in the nighthawk black pearl that come factory and i wanted my car black not any other color! i know know why you gonna get a black car painted black... well those are the reasons. thanx again guys for the comments!

I was all excited about those rims untill I saw the 3G. Then I got really sad cause I really liked em and cant drop 3gs on rims. Hey does anyone know how much it usually costs to have rims put on?

Rep Power: 222 i think you should have kept the pinstiping, i think it looked good, as far as everyting else goes, glad you took those tails off, and those rims are hot.

Naw not yet. I'm slowly putting together an engine outside of the car. I have a vtec head just looking for a block as of now and which i have one pending depending on the miles and shipping cost.
Thanks tragedy!!! I'm trying to do my best. My skirts and rear are a bit messed up but I plan on fixing them when I get back from deployment.

It looks 100% better now. Good job.
MTV should cancel the show "Pimp your ride" and implement a show called "From rice to nice". The show will teach ricers the art of making a nice car.

looks good, I'm thinking about getting a set of volks like that when I do my build on base, A little hard to justify 3k though, well not really. Look at them for ****s sake! they are purdy!
