I got the scratch fixed $175 through some guy from craigslist, he did an awesome job! My bumper looks new again :D ==================================Does anyone know a body shop in Vancouver BC that is not too expensive and do a decent job???

So I was hungover and was driving my coupe home, after about 5 min drive (which felt like 1 hr drive with the hang over..) I finally got to my garage. Usually I would back-in to my parking spot, but this time I was so tired I decided to do a quick head in...and this is what happened:





Yea.. I hit the pole....

All I can say is when hungover, things do look further.

i think you mean you were driving hungover. i'm not sure of any decent body shops in vancouver, in port moody there's a decent place, First Class auto body on barnet highway. you might want to search around on more local forums than nico, around here the vast majority of members are from the US. you might want to check out niclub, they're mostly infiniti's and 300zx's but they're local, so you can probably find some better advice there.

Hi there i know i dont post here much but i think i can can help you. theres this place called HTV autobody in burnaby. heres the info 5368 Lane Street Burnaby, BC V5H 2H5 (604) 568-0063. Ive gotten my stillen fascia painted and installed here for $450 which i think is a resonable price. hope this was some kind of help.

there's a coupe in vancity with a stillen fascia?!?!

i thought that altima777 had the most done up coupe in the lowermainland, well he probably still does unless you have a lot more mods than the stillen fascia. i didn't think anyone in the 604 had any stillen body parts

I actually saw a red coupe with stillen spoiler at Burnaby golf course before! I also saw a white coupe with stillen fascia and borla exhaust at Brentwood mall, can this be you VancityWhiteCoupe?

I've pondered quite a bit with regards to purchasing the stillen fascia...i'm holding out for the GTR fascia/CF lip. hopefully have it on for beginning of summer hehe. Since all the van ppl are here...anyone interested in a Zenclosure sub box for 2 10"s, brand new check it out http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISA...63045

oh, and bodyshop...i got my stillen lip done a local shop, i cant say they come highly recommended tho...altho he did a pretty good job the second time he painted it.

Honk if you ever see me !. Hey Altima777 I think I saw your coupe in the richmond area before btw i love the look of your coupe.

I actually really thought about waiting for the gt-r front fascia also but when i heard it was made of fiber glass i wasn't to pleased. It wouldn't be suitable for daily driving in my opinion so I went with the stillen front fascia simply becuz the looks are amazing and its made of poly urethane which is much more durable for daily driving.

no way, the only altima coupes i see around here are all stock, with the exception of the occasional coupe i see with the factory spoiler. nice to know there's a few coupes around here that are modded.

i want to get the stillen fascia but i think it doesn't look very good on black, it really needs to be 2 toned IMO.

whitecoupe, how much did your nismo exhaust cost you? and where did you get it from?

Ya, I don't see many modded coupes on the road. I have been creeping around this forum for awhile seeing all the nice coupes it inspired me to do some work on my own coupe. I'm usually in the richmond and burnaby area where I work But I am in the vancouver eastside alot on weekends.

I think the stillen fascia looks great on black, check out Rob.Vegan's coupe.

I actually got mine in the states when I went there for a vacation since it was way to expensive to have it shipped here. It cost me about 800 canadian.

Thanks man, i'm in richmond often. Mad props for doing the vinyl roof urself...i tried, lol, it was a disaster. What side skirts do you have on ur ride? I've seen a white coupe with a custom liscense plate a long time ago that said "nismo" or somethin in richmond. And i've heard of another white coupe in the vancouver area who is rocking gold rims...is that u? Post up some pics of ur ride man

These are old pics all I could find at the moment. I actually don't have sideskirts at the moment, I actually decided to buy the nismo exhaust instead.
