I made this thread over on G35NYC..and figured why not just make it here too. I can't go over how many times I've gotten PM after PM about my car, mostly about the headlights/grill, but even the bulbs I'm using!! My HID's were bought from a local shop, all LED's purchased on eBay, the rest..PM X-Vert..he is "Igor" when I refer to him in this thread...
Well..under the suggestion from Igor, I decided to make a thread to document all the mods/changes with my car. It's been great ever since I picked it up on March 21, 2008...but oh man..the money being spent on it really never stops!
March 21, 2008 -- Day of Pick Up from Kenny(Da Mayor) -- Already With 20% Tints
The next..and I guess by far the mod that changed the look of my car forever..was the headlights/grill/emblem painting that we did. Thank you Quimby once again for the idea..and Igor for doing a clean job with it. I'll definitely never forget the initial reaction..and at this time people didn't even KNOW I had the car, after this mod was done was the first time everyone actually found out I got the car.
March 28, 2008 -- Grill painted OB, Emblem painted IP, Headlight housing pained OB, Projector shroud painted IP, Debadged Rear
Next mod that had to be done..was to do a drop on my car for the first time ever..I ordered Tein H Techs and thanks to Konrad for putting these on for me.
April 16, 2008 -- Put on Tein H Techs
April 20, 2008 -- 6000K HID's, Hyper White City Lights, Hyper White Turn Signals..Not much of a mod
June 7, 2008 -- GReddy Ti-C Exhaust Installed..Thanks to Kirk/Lou @ Ampd..I LOVE my exhaust!

So the lense come apart correct? I've taken my car by the body shop and they claim that it is an enclosed part. I told them that this has been done, i.e. painted headlight housing etc...
Any additional info on this, the proceedure of taking apart would be helpful.... and much appreciated.... They also state that the chrome is very hard to adhear to with paint.. It's almost like they don't even want to waist their time etc...
Looks great!
