Helllo folks, It's Dr.Fate and I'm almost done with my car and after this paint job I have only a few things left to do, Like redo seats and door panels, tint the windows, put on all the winter build parts I've gathered and paint the GTR rims, then I'm done. Hopefully It will come all together by summmer, well I'll stop ranting and show the car off:

More pictures tomarrow when photobucket stop acting funny.

Here's the Pictures Boys, Hope you like. I'll post more pictures soon. Most of all I'm okay with the paint job, yeah I have to go back and have them touch some thing here, something there ( Really small stuff, REALLY!) but I'm happy overall with the paint job. The next thing on the list are: Put on winter build parts I've collected.Reupholster the seat front and back.Reupholster doors and Glove box (Small stuff, DIY).Coilovers, something I can daily drive with.New rims.AC, somebody help please!Not much to do then I'm Done.

P.S. A man can never say he's done when it comes to his car , there's allways something?!!?

That blue looks great.

Slight Thread Jack/ Do those wheels exist without the dots on the spokes? I thought I saw an Altima without the dots.

Badass color dude. Where'd you get the paint? I think the only way it would look better is if it was on a hatch Super clean though!

I like the oem Z wheels on your car. They look clean and not too flashy. Goes well with the subtle aero on the car. Is she still stock motor wise?
