the fact that its still rockin the fugly factory grille removes it from the cleanest A/C contest...

also, definately not a fan of spoilers... especially that one...

but I like the drop, and I dig the JDM theme

Car looks good dude. I as well am not a fan of that spoiler. Your sig says you have the Eibach kit, but your car looks lower then what they would do. Are the Eibachs still on?

Since your title was brutally obnoxious/misleading I'm going to be really honest. You car is not the cleanest/nicest/prettiest/sexy/whatever adjective you want to use A/C on this forum. Its not even close. That is an ugly spoiler, you completely hide the lines of the side of the car through the trunk. Also, having the stillen front lip without the rockers looks silly in my opinion.

That being said that is a very solid drop you have going on there. . .

Gotta update my sig, im on bc coils. Imo the g35 wing is one of the better spoilers for our car, sorry im not diggin the stillen side skirts or the stillen cheese grater fascia, just not my cup of tea.

I've yet to see a spoiler I like on the A/C. And are those side mirrors really that red, or is it the editing? I'm surprised you don't get pulled over for them.

No they look like they're orange, just like his other photoshoots he's done.

Well, I agree they are good shots, but the car it alright at best. The Dark Slate theme is out of contrast here.

First, to have no tint... :tisk:

Second,the drift spoiler was developed for a flat trunk, therefor looks like it only covers a portion of the rear, considering our huge raise in the body lines of the rear.

Third, enough spoilers?

All in all, you may be in the top 10 of dark slate altima coupes. Nice looking, but not the cleanest by far.

Now that ^ is a clean looking A/C. Too bad it's gone.

And you went manual for the truck, but not on the A/C? And Red Wings? Seriously?

If only a 6 speed altima coupe was available. They put so much money into the CVT idea that when I got mine, 6 speeds were on a 3 months waiting list. 6 speed Frontiers are a dime a dozen!

I really like those BC coilovers... but I promised I wouldn;t do anything else to this damn car...

OP, you make a thread with that kind of title and YOU WILL GET FLAMED...
factory front grille=fail
no side skirts=fail
stillen roof spoiler with g35 trunk spoiler combo= partial fail

wheels=win
JDM theme=win
coilovers=win

average A/C in my book

I love your wheels and drop, well at least the look of the drop. I have Eibachs and I'm already paranoid enough about scrapping s***. I've done it a few times. Although I think someone mentioned you can get coilovers and adjust them to the same height in which the Eibachs are?

As for the grille, I think I'm one of the few who like the stock grille, well, as long as you get the overlays for the ugly chrome and all. After I did that, it looked so different up front, really a huge change.

His car only look much lower because he have like 4 people in the car. But BC Racing can go low but not that low unless you remove 1 of the perch. Overall it is a clean coupe and it is one of the cleanest DS for how it looks.

Ragna14: BC Racing you can adjust it for any height you want be it slightly lower than Eibach or higher than stock. I went fully lock perch.

lol i dont mind sparking some convo.
its all personal preference, personally i like the stock grille, the side skirts we have available to the a/c are all too ricey imo, and i think the rear is nice with the "ebay" cf roof wing and the g35 spoiler.

and i pretty much scrape everywhere i go, i removed the rear perches and the front is locked all the way down. my piping is probably scratched too hell but tis the life.
