Ahh, new to this website
hey, i just got this car last week. when i got it, it was bone stock. its a 01' with 23k miles on it. its an lx 5 spd. stole it for $8995. First thing i did was take the pinstripe off. and then got tint and just bought these rims today. I ordered up the neuspeed sport springs, but im thinking of canceling and getting the race. what should i do?
i bought them from some guy up in orlando for only $200. they are in perfect condition and the tires are new. he said he just wanted to get them out of his garage. they're not stock tires either . 205/60/15. not that big.

Was the front bumper replaced at any time? The coloring is off in those pictures, but it could be the angle that the picture was taken at. Anyways, welcome to the club...

Rep Power: 0 the race drop is pretty low... i have it with 205/50/15 tires and i can't get onto a lot of driveways, like up over the thing the rain is supposed to run through. And i can get over some speed bumps, but not the big ones.. I dont know if that is a concern to u. You should just get some coilovers... someone told me that they get rusted up and squeek a lot, that is why i didn't get them.. but i should have

Drop it 2 inches, then clear you headlights. Then start thinking what you really want, look at pics and read the section about parts on here.....this will save you money in the long run....suck when you buy two body kits and three sets of side view mirrors.
If your going to go turbo then just start saving, if your going to just do bolt on's then start with the exhaust: intake, catback, and hi-flow cat. by then you should have a good idea what you want to do with your kit....full kit, lip kits, and or just JMD style....remember have fun, and if you have question were all here to help, and if you learn something cool on your own share with the rest of us.......

Rep Power: 319 the difference in color is a "Flop" because paint properties change and look different when its on metal and when its on plastic...its a normal thing which cant be avoided...when ur car gets a lil older its more visible because the clearcoat wears off...but if its new its less visible

Rep Power: 434 interesting. I know that 350z's have a problem with the paint being off colored on the front side and rears, but I have never seen a 7thgen being that off in only the front bumper. My rear bumper is like that because I was rear ended and got a new bumper.
