WhosUrBuddiee Mod Progression

I am doing this mostly for myself, I guess you all can look too. Basically just going to update overtime so I can see how my car is progressing.

Sitting on the showroom floor. Took her home 27 March 2009.










Very first weekend. Tint (20% front and 10% rear) and debadge.




Took acouple shots at night.






Next was rims. 20" AM Forged. Flat textured black center with TA satin black lip. Also added the driver side key cover and Injen CAI. (Not pictured)




Had to get the center caps custom painted.




Then added spoiler and Bats overlays (too light, Bats was Amazing and sending replacement)

Reserved for overlays pic


Cool HDR shot




Finally got my plates, now I have stupid holes in my front, will be plugged soon.

Waiting on my Rays black lugs, Eibach springs, custom emblemless grill, and rear valance overlay.

Plans in near future is custom black/red brakes and headlights.


UPDATE

Got my custom black emblemless grill today. I love it.










UPDATE

Finally got the OEM bumper plugs, and painted them.



Then found out the guy at Infiniti that drilled my holes went F*CKING CRAZY. Holes are huge, the plugs are no where near big enough. So I went to home depot and bought some BIG A** plugs. I am kinda handy with a dremmel so after about an hour I got it down to an acceptable size.
Left is dremmeled plug, Middle is plug from home depot, Right is OEM plug







Here they are painted and installed.






Added some Mezerna FMJ today and took acouple shots.









Added Tanabe Hyper Medallion exhaust and bats rear valance overlay.






Finally dropped on Eibach springs. Also added Bats Overlays. They look truly amazing.
(PS I used Dodo Juice Supernatural over 2 months ago and still looks amazing. Just rained the night before I took these pics and did not even wipe it down before pics)

Good call on all these mods. That will make a huge improvement in the look.

Car looks sharp, like the custom caps too.

You just have to not wear your wallet in the car to avoid the bubble, which actually works out nice because it's easier to get to stored in the cup holder for fast food stops.
