All of the work I did myself. I really wish this car was real.

Matte Black paint job
Nitrous Express nitrous oxide system
18" SSR Professors SP1's (Ok their Nismo's, but it's just a toy car, right?)
Smoked out headlights & tail lights
Full Debadge
Porsche Carrera GT seats
Chevy Malibu spoiler (I know looks retarded, but there are holes there so I had to cover it up}
Twin Garret GT35R turbos
Full Porsche Carrera GT engine & tranny swap
RSR turbo back exhaust
AEM Gauges (The chrome thing on the driver side door where a mirror is supposed to be is a gauge)
Nismo Lip Kit
Cutout center portion of the lower grille
Lowered
Brembo BBK

I don't have any pics before the repaint. It had a few different things.

Heres how it was BEFORE
(Search 1:18 Nissan 350z Nismo. It's the silver one.)


Here's it now. Sorry for some of the pics, the camera wouldn't cooperate.

Nice! Brembo BBK?

I used to do model airplanes before but I couldn't find the same patience (like you had) in cleanly painting them. Nice job man! :clap:
