Somehow I have the feeling that you guys are gonna hate my car but I dont really care please be honest with your opinion my dad and I painted it, after repairing huge dent in rear quarter panel from getting hit while parked. We wanted to go with sort of an old school look with it and I think we got it. I got the stock alloys on it now and the spoiler is back on it. sorry about the glare. be honest and tell me what you think.....

the ride

Its not the paint, its the hubcaps, it would look better with just the steelies i think. You got my repect for learning how to do it yourself.

It would look good with a set of 16 inch black rims.

While the paint job is not my personal taste, I give you mad props for doing such a good job on it. The quality looks really good. Def need to ditch the hubcaps though.

Hell yeah that looks great! If somebody tells you otherwise, stick a wang in his eye and ask them when the last time they did their own work was!!!

I never cared for that 90-91 front bumper and that's the only thing that's throwing me off. If you added the stock Nissan lip to it though.........damn. But in regards to your post, once again:

hell yeah that's nice and wang in the eye for the nay-sayers!

no love for the pignose :D

i like it. very classy, and clean to boot! and the coupes look better with the pignose, IMO, the hatchbacks need the 91+ lip, though
