March is the traditional time for Spring to start and Spring Break. This month, show us the best use of your Versa concerning Spring. Are you road tripping for Spring Break? Are you doing Spring cleaning and stuffing the Versa full of items? Tell us and show us how you are using the Versa. Enter as many times as you want, pictures, text, and videos are welcomed. I will lock the thread around the 22nd and start voting.

The prize this month is the winner's choice of either a clear silicone I-Key cover or a black or tan Nissan adjustable hat.





Any questions, ask away!

My plans for this month are to add some school spirit to the Versa. I'm originally from PA and just moved to Atlanta a year ago and there's not too many Penn State University fans down here.

I ordered PSU letters to replace the VERSA letters on the back and as soon as my registration comes in the mail I'm going to try to get a PENN ST vanity plate.

Got a vinyl sticker for the back window in the mail yesterday and I should have heeded the warning "Glass temperature should be between 60-80 degrees" because applying it in 45 degree weather made it bubble like crazy. Plus apparently the entire oval is a sticker, not just the white parts so it impairs vision pretty badly. Going to try to very carefully cut away any non-white parts with an exact-o knife and rubbing alcohol this weekend when it warms up.

Future plans will be tint, strut bar, and either CAI or just a K&N filter. I really like the car how it is so I probably won't do too much to it.

Cleaned up the badges in the back and replaced them with some of my own.



Scraped off the decal on the back window too and ordered a custom one that should just be the white parts and not a giant oval.

Look what I did today I have been wanting to do this for a very long time. I bought the 3M adhesive back in 2009 and just bought fabric today. I think I have enough left for the doors but for today I did the trunk tray :D It looks so much nicer than all black in there.

The glue needed:



Measure the fabric needed:



Spray the area and let the spray sit for a minute or so until it is 'tacky':



You'll have to poke a hole for the string to go through, and re-tye it under neath:



The finished product (before going back in the car):



In the car :D





View from outside glass:



View from back seat:



And a back seat view of my led's (they are brighter in person):



And a new pink sparkly front license plate frame/cover :D I finally got rid of the front dealer frame.

Wow, that looks really good! I want to change the fabric on my doors, just need to get the courage to go ahead and give it a try. Anyways, good job!

When you do your doors you should do a Do It Yourself. We have some good stuff coming soon!

I just applied from my 'PSU 05' Georgia license plate, but it won't be ready until the middle of June.

I wanted to work on my doors today since it was my last day of vacation but it was a bit chilly outside.

My dad said when it's a warm spring/summer day he'll help me take them apart. So I'm gonna wait.
