I think it looks absolutely amazing. Really makes it different from every other pathfinder on the road. Next up: Black housing headlights and Turn light housings. I will be adding a light shade of tint to the fogs aswell using stick on tint, just incase I want to remove it in the future. Too bad my pathy isnt white :(

looks pretty awesome and the black headlights will make it look even awesome-er and it completely changes the look in a good way!

it doesn't matter if its not white. you just have to get the correct combination of gold and black and it will look amazing.

black rims, black headlights, black tail light tint and it will look just as good as on a white pathfinder.

I'm a huge fan of White vehicles with the chrome bits blacked out. I guess my goldish pathy can pas ;)

Looking forward to seeing videos of your pathy once its done the engine work!

Little information: Decided to have my work do my Plugs today. Now it's misfiring. I used the stock OEM NGK Iridium plugs too. I really should start following the term "Don't fix what ain't broke".

I will keep anyone who is interested posted.

Sorry to hear about the misfiring it must be something really small, maybe you need new wires?

It is pretty nifty stuff! I think you can get different colors from online ?"dipmycar" or something. I ended up buying flat black over at Home Depot, it was like 5$ a can at the time-suggested by another forum member.

All fixed! Our Solus Pro code reader showed it was missing on #1. Swapped the coils over from another and voila! The wire just never seated properly on the #1 coil for some reason. I must say, the plugs had 185k kms on them (114 mi) and they were pretty much shot. This thing runs so smooth now!

Yeah! There were a few that were pretty rough. These NGK Platinum plugs are expensive but seem to be pretty darn reliable. It runs like a peach now though. You have a 3.3L right? i've got the three five. Im not sure if the intervals are different between the two.

Ps. If im not mistaken your from the GTA area right?

*creeped your CarDomain. Seen you around before!! I was in burlington a few months ago...before your mustang. Black QX4 with Rims and exhaust?
