You could always shave the top of the plenum down level/even and paint "NISSAN" on the top of it.

Or if you know a skilled metalworker,(modern blacksmith), you could have the Infiniti logo on the emblem itself shaved off and a "NISSAN" logo cut into it.

Nothing personal, but......

Maybe its me, maybe its the fact that I haven't slept in 3 days,or maybe its the fact that my sense of humor is lacking at this point.

But for some reason I find your previous post to be rude and presumptuous.

I got you man, no rudeness detected...sorry no plenum trades

I find it funny since I've had this car how many people have wanted parts off me as if I was parting it out! It's not dead yet guys, sheesh...

I'll take some pics this weekend hopefully...I hear it might snow though, yuck.

I did end up getting cali customs springs from a forum member. I'm awaiting some parts from IOS that didn't make it in my order, then I'll be throwing on the suspension and springs. I imagine the height will be about the same when installed. If I want to drop it more I'll save up for JIC's or something.

So I work in film and on set this week was a black Rolls Royce Phantom...my god what a beautiful car. I got to look inside up close; the detail and options are insane...

My favourite feature has to be the hideaway hood ornament; when you lock the car it swivels around and hides away...awesome.

Anyways, my President has Rolls Royce inspirations, so I snuck a few pics; too bad the car was tucked in the corner, I could have got some better pics.

Here they are:



Also, I mounted my 18x10 Work XD9's from my GTR :D

Many will not agree with the direction I've taken the car, but to them I say, suck it. I'll say it one more time, I'm not trying to go full VIP, I'm just doing my own thing. I think it looks aggressive and unique, and slightly Batmobile-ish. Thanks to Braden @ JNS for the Project Kics Spacers!

Anyways, enjoy.

Eh...can't say I'm a fan of the Work's on the Pres. They're tiny car wheels. The President needs some wheels with more substance.

Did you get the suspension on yet?

Any thought on having the wheels color changed?

Seems too dark for me, but if that's the look you're going for, then you achieved it.

keep on rocking with your c*** out SpartanAir, after all....THIS (thread) IS SPARTA!all you haters will be kicked down a bottomless pit... (^^i dis not see the PS3 or XBOX, ignore them)

i like the 18X10 wheels on there but i have to say 19s or 20s would fit the car better when next to a Bentrey (thats a JDM Bentley, get with it fools). But, yes there is a but, your style definitely stirs up the semi-stale over-cambered slammed-to-s*** VIP scene that every fanboy-*** in a big-body-bubble-eye Lexus is jocking these days.

keep it true school.....

The rims are OK, just weird I guess. Because when you look at that car you see a business mans car not really a sports car like it does with the rims.

Either way its OK.

Hello,That is truly a unique car. Gotta give it up to Canada and B.C specifically. Fairly reasonable car import laws, healthcare for everyone, decriminalized Marijuana, and a pretty cool entertainment scene due to tons of tv shows/movies leaving California for tax credits. Really have enjoyed B.C every time I have gone. And killer Skiing a few hours away...Cheers,ML

don't get me wrong. those rims under the circumstances with the kit and everything is a big NO. but if you want to go the non vip way, not a bad look.

what size are those gtr rims anyways?

Thanks for the comments guys. I knew I wouldn't get 100% positive feedback, but I don't care, I like the look I'm going for. If you've seen pics of my previous car, the GTR, you can see it's similar in looks. I do agree, I would like them in a 20" size, I'm going to look out for some that I like, but I really don't like the standard VIP wheels...boring and not my style. I like Bronze on black...

Thanks Paul; yes, the old wheels are for sale, and I'm looking to sell them soon; I'm flexible on price. Please follow the link.

Thanks for the props Sleeper...it is my own look after all, not looking to please anyone but myself

Hey Rex, IOS forgot to include some parts in my order so I'm still VERY EAGERLY waiting to fix my suspension. I will let you know when they are all installed with the Cali springs.

That was me.

We prefer members don't create thread to draw attention to their classifieds listing, but simply add a link in their sig, that way it's seen in every thread they post in on the entire board.

Too much NyQuil and Molsons in combination with a RHD car in rainland can lead to some pretty strange thoughts about esthetics.

First time I've ever seen a worn rear seat.

might want to check out some manufacturer sites. what many consider "standard vip wheels" are no longer very standard with the style going more aggressive and sporty. most companies are walking the line between luxury and sport right now and i'm sure you could find something to satisfy your aesthetic desires while not looking so tuner that they are out of place.
