I think the engine cover looks a lot better. As always, keep it up.
I'm a fan of everything but the engine bay.

Here is where I am now with the alternator
Man there were some things I was worried about that turned out great. But the engine bay gets tackier and tackier. Its like a kid 10 years ago Modding his interior. If it can easily be removed, it gets sprayed a bright, non-matching color. Sad day man, the rest of the car is not bad.

oh, trust us, we know
Thanks man for the kind words!
I have to agree with Dustin on this. Under the hood has the fast and furious feel to it. Doesn't do all your other work justice just distracts from the car as a whole.
Club Jeffie, Yea we can make that. Text or Call(908)866-1882
I think it looks a ton better than the corroded metal looked under the hood. To each their own
Adam some +ve critisism here, could you pull in from your exterior colors? the silver and the chamelion? that way everything would flow? im a fan of the accents and the parts your cleaning up, just not a fan of the color....
i'd love to see more body color and chamelion accents make their way into the engine bay!
watch for flying sparks!!!
Hey Dustin brother whenever you come to a show up here in New England or visit me at the shop ill make sure I close the hood for ya
. No but seriously I know what you guys are talking about. I could have gone that route very easily and just removed what I removed now and just painted it the same color chameleon as the exterior or the magnetic gray. But instead I used sunrise red chameleon with some gray accents and then sprayed prizmatic before clear because I want the engine bay to pop with color. Its just my style I guess. I really wish I could capture how well the prizmatic looks in the sunlight! Possibly turn the tide lol. Hmm maybe Ill photoshop the engine bay all black and post a pic for the hell of it
Agreed, Exterior looks good. If it were me Id COMPLETELY debadge it. would clean it up and keep people guessing. Also agreed on the red not being a good color choice. Your car your color choices I understand but its not my taste at all.
Should be able to take the badges off now and not have any fading. That would be my next step. Get rid of all the nismo crap, and the sentra on the back, all of it.
Also some Brake upgrades I plan to purchase.
With these Stop Tech rotors
I do however like these EBC Ultimax rotors aswell
And these Hawk Pads
its nice on the outside but way to busy under the hood
nice brake upgrade
RIP JESSE GERARD.....Youll always be in my thoughts and prayers...
Only thing I dislike under the hood is the wire loom.
I think if you got rid of it, or got black it wouldn't be like "BAM ITS RED" it'd be like "ooooo red".
Just my .02
But I think it looks SO nice on the exterior OMG I want to make babies with it.
Can't say I've seen that before. With the amount of decals ur running. The trunk needs a debadge!
the shot of the front end of just half of it with the grille/one side of the lights sorta reminds me of a CTS-Vish persona
if you removed the red loom/factory silver loom and took the time to put that black cloth/fiber wrap over top i think it would clean up and accentuate the bay all at the same time
looks good otherwise and keep it up.
Right now I am not even sure if I am going to keep the decals on the rear window to be honest. I have to see how everything falls together. Right now with the car being in winter mode I.E. factory spec-v suspension is back in, side skirts, front bumper, grill and wheels have all been removed till march it can be hard to envision the entire car when most of it is in my basement. My new wheels are chomium black finish and I might just leave them as is or possibly do a thin red paint accent on the inner lip not sure.
Like this
Or this if I do red at all
I might just paint entire brake system black or chameleon. Or vice versa with new wheels chameleon who knows. I also wish the car came with the gray wire loom lol instead of the grimmy black wire loom with that awesome nissan adhesive that takes forever to get off your hands. Here is a shot of the new washers I made for the forward bar installed. Still alot more to do. Strut tower bar will not be installed until I install new BC coilovers if you were wondering. Front forward bar was installed because well I was bored lmao
Plan on picking these up soon aswell. Titanium chameleon green to red strut nuts
I predict your whole car will end up candy chameleon eventually, piece by piece. lol Can't say its my style but I like the work you put in.
