Updated Cardomain lots of pics~

After an hour of washing the salt off my car, I grabbed my digicam and went for a photoshoot. Also I just got the Greddy EVO 2 exhaust installed 2 days ahead. Enjoy~ and let me know how the car looks. Both Positive and Negative comments are welcome~

P.S. I already know I need to lower my car ASAP...lol

Looks good, but I hafta be honest and say I'm growing less and less fond of the Stillen front lip. Love the rest of the kit, I'll probly be buying that rear bumper piece this summer (by itself) cause I think that finishes off the rear of the car really nicely. But looks good man, definatly get the windows tinted now!

Looks nice - a couple comments/questions:

1. Not feeling the NISMO badge on the dashboard...
2. Not feeling the red cover thingy on the ebrake...looks like a condom with the end cut off!
3. exhaust looks good and fits nicely with your kit.
4. smoke those tails! 2k-1 tails rule!
5. I like the kit except for the front corners....
6. Stillen RSB - :thumbsup
7. Engine looks sweet - my VQ30 is jealous.
8. What kind of shift **** is that? Looks tight! I want one! (looks kind of like the AE one, but a little different)...

Overall, looks good...just commenting because you asked, not trying to say anything bad on your ride..it's money.

its the stock 2002-03 shift ****, same as the R34 skyline ****


if u want a cheap alternative to 2k1 tails, paint the turn signals red,
might also add a clear 3rd brake light. I m not really feeling the pink E brake either and definatley drop the car and clear out the turn signals, then it will look sweeeeet!!!

He He Thanks all for having something to say about my car (Both good and things to improve on or replace)

First the Stillen front lip, I wanted to make the car look lower but didn't want to replace a perfectly good front bumper so I got the Stillen Full kit, to be honest I am not Perfectly happy with the way it looks, but I've gotten use to the front lip. Its OK~

Second, Tinted Windows I want to get, but as you all can see I have "Illinois" license plate, and IL traffic law does not ALLOW Tinted Windows.

Third, Thanks for that really funny comment about the Red E-brake cover.......about how it looks like a cut off Condom, I laughed my A$s off when read over that part...lol It does look wierd along with the other interior stuff.........Can anyone recommand any alternatives? Better E-brake cover replacement? I'll definitly replace it if I can find something better.

Lastly, NISMO Badge.............humm.........I'm NISMO crazy so I think I'll leave it alone (Its not like I have them all over the car right?)

Thanks for great comments, that includes things you guys don't like too~ I won't take bad comments very offensive so don't worry and speak out..

nice to see someone who can take criticism
As a next mod, think of removing the orange lens for the turn signal in the headlight, replace with the clear lens. That would look beautiful

Hey, you could replace the ebrake cover with a REAL condom.....that way, you will always have one handy if a really hot girl jumps in your car and wants to get it on....and it already has a "reservoir tip" that would fit nicely over the ebrake button

But seriously, maybe just go with another color of ebrake cover (if you really need a cover?) - black always matches everything...the red just sticks out a little too much for my taste!

I thought about this, and two things I'm concerning with,

1. I'm not too crazy about opening the headlamp myself (unless I have someone that knows how to do it to supervise me), heating it up with a heat gun or place in in a oven @ 350 degrees for 15min

2. it would be totally wierd to have the front turn signals another color, blue, white, etc... and have Orange turn signals in the rear. Unless I replace the rear turn signals with 2k1 rear lights, but that means more $. Which I don't plan on spending.

1. My E-brake is not a sex toy (aka *****)

2. Searching for alternative on Ebay....

Well...not a fan of the touring front lip, or that style exhaust on the Max. But otherwise looks good....

Not feeling the front lip either - It just doesn't fit the lines on the car...looks kind of "tacked on" and overstyled IMHO.

Otherwise, the exhaust and rear and side skirts look great.
