[Amtk240]

Just out of the paint shed after a very long wait. Total Navan conversion including floor mats.

Thats clean sure wish i could find a navan kit in good shape

[maj Andres]

Very nice!! Do you have the clear lenses w/ corners? Did your visibility at night get better or is the same?

[ScrapMetal]

Nice, the paint looks...soo...shiny! Very nice job, gorgeous S14.

Dude... your hood... No.

+1 for full Navan-1 for 2001 era hood paint scheme-1 for paint color selection

[1990-240sxsr20det]

Not diggin the hood.But, everything else looks shiny and clean

They are SuperMade Clear Headlights with clear corners. Visibility is better and it looks like I would be plagued by drivers flashing their high beams at me thinking I had my high beams on but no one has so far. They look even better at night lit up then they do in the daytime!

For the hood haters, to each his own. I saw another S14 with the same paint (I can't find it anymore) and it looked sweet IMO. My car was originally Ruby Pearl so I went back to the roots. It is not my favorite color either but I tried to make it look the best I could. I am not a big fan of a plain looking hood and I certainly don't like the look of one color car with a black carbon fiber hood. I wanted something a little different than the everyday looking 240sx. Again, to each his own.

You nailed it, I think it looks great. There's a ton of cars here that look exactly the same, props for swimming against the current.

[s14derrick]

i think it looks great!! i want more pics.also are you on coils? i would like to see it a little lower but thats just me hehe

[ChampaignSilviaS14]

The wheels don't really flow with it, and it could be a bit lower.

[koukis4teen]

sikk. Never has there ever been a nicer spoiler

[ERIC s.-14]

I am a fan of the color, don't listen to those fools. I need aero too, or something.

[ScrapMetal]

I actually like the paint scheme on the hood, it looks real cool, and the 350Z wheels look nice on the S14. Don't listen to these critics, your car probably looks better than theirs do.

Sick car dude

[AZ89two4Tsx]

I <3 Navan.

[Amtk240]

Thanks for the comments. I think the clear lenses help the car and give it a clean look. I have looked it up and I can't seem to find out what a Navan is? It is a town in Europe and a brand of Alcohol but I can't seem to find anything that relates it to Silvia or Nissan. Whatever it is I love the parts.

Whaaaa??

[SketchyRollin564]

I actually like that color a lot on zenki's, its not too flashy, but its still nice

the black on the hood isnt my thing, but i see why you like it

if you want my opinion, i think the black on the hood would look a LOT nicer if you complemented it with somthing else on the car, cause right now it just doesnt flow

for example, spray the rims like graphite or gunmetal with some duplicolor wheel clear coat so its glossy with a little flake, and looks really nice

and then some tint, and possibly kouki tails, although idk if you wanna keep the zenki scheme

and lastly, the silvia emblem would flow a lot better in black

so basically, right now the hood doesnt look right because its just out of place and doesnt flow, but if you do little subtle stuff to make it match the color scheme of the car, itl look really good

pretty much. i'm still on the look out for a bumper and side skirts. op, nice zenki. it's looking really good

[IDRFT95S14]

looks really clean bro,and i know u said something about the hood but IMO it does look better with the plain hood and i have the same color paint,trust me youll like it better even more if u drop it

[ThuG LyFe]

nice and shiny! how much did everything run you?

i also agree not feeling the hood or the paint color but it CRAPS on every POS flat black/multicolor/fading paint 240 for sure.

[Salem240]

Very nice... where did ya get the SuperMade covers from? One of these days I'm going with Navan on my Zenki. Nothing looks cleaner than factory aero

[DrifterXRPS13]

as much as i despise zenki...it looks really good and clean...nice job.

hood needs to go, get kouki sideskirts, lose those wheels(i hate how almost every s14 rocks 350z or G35 wheels..they only flow with s13s.), and KOUKI TAILS.

zenki tails =barf

who the fucck are you?? its his car. everyone has different taste. i hate the 3 piece navan spoiles with a passion, and z33 wheels on just about every s14 i see. the way the OP put everything together was very nice. the hood, i think wouldve flowed if you went with a little more aggressive/wild theme, but youre going for that super dooper stock jdm clean look. hood doesnt flow as mentioned before. other than that, clean paint job, and clean s14!!

This... Is not the average, everyday looking 240sx. Simplicity is not always a bad thing.



Your car can still be teh WIN if you listen to advice. I think Sketchy had some good input for you that I can agree with. And I can see where you were going with the hood. I've always had in mind to do something similar with a certain style of vented CF hoods.

But for your car... I'd say color-match the whole hood and paint the wheels gold or bronze for now (even chrome would work. And it would nicely accent your headlights too, IMO...). Later, add Kouki LED tails, some spacers with smaller tires (or different wheels altogether) and add more drop.

The car is meh right now... but only a few tiny things hold it be from looking really nice...

i agree, nice paintjob but usually simplicity is the key in DOPE WHIPSfor ex.
