2004 Infiniti FX35 Static Wrapped in Hexis Satin Blue Metallic Vinyl (picture heavy)

[w201e34]

great transformation. you did a lotta really nice, quality work on the interior and the whole car.
wheels look great, and for the platform and being static, the height is nice.
very impressed, keep up the good work!

Looks good so far=) Are you actually from Milwaukee?

i wasn't expecting that! love the colour, and the aluminium vinyl is soo much nicer!!

May I ask where you buy the wrap, I'm digging the black brushed aluminum look and would like to try some of this wrap on my interior trim? Is there a really good instruction on how to properly apply it, obviously you are kicking ass at it, I didn't think for a minute before seeing this build that a wrap would look this good up close (good pictures), your ride made me a believer. You sir have an exceptional attention to detail and I look forward to more updates on this sweet machine.

At first, I cringed. Then, towards the end, I got into it.

Not bad at all, looks pretty good. The only thing that I don't care for is the amount of vinyl wrapping on the outside- all the trim, badges, and little stuff just seems a little bit over the top.

Good work, keep it up.

Thanks everyone. I appreciate the positive feedback.

Thank you. I bought my vinyl straight from the manufacturer(Hexis USA). There is a good online store http://autovinylsolutions.com/, but they don't carry Hexis vinyl anymore.

I would highly recommend to watch this YouTube channel:

Thanks. I see your point. The only reason why I wrapped the car at the first place is because the painter I chose messed up the paint job on lowers(unpainted side skirts and bumper lips), they didn't match at all(metallic color). At that time I didn't have a budget to repaint(blend) all the parts on the car again and decided to try to wrap it myself(cost me $700 in materials, plus I can change the color every 2-4 years). As far as the badge and trims, they were all chrome and I didn't want to paint them, so for me it was easier and faster to refresh some pieces by wrapping them. The 3M black brushed aluminum looks really good in person, and you couldn't tell at first that it's all wrap, IMO.

Next Mod.

Just got these today.


Wolo 619 Air Horns, rated at 123.5 Decibels each. I'm going to install 2 of them next week

[Hotsauce]

I must say, I am really impressed.

[Nagah]

Yea, I should aso upgrade the horns. It is depressing when you want to horn a shithead from the Autobahn with 180km/h and your friggin horn cannot be heard anymore.

[Dwob]

i like it, but i just wish you actualy painted some parts for a change, all the wrapping is cool, but its just too easy,still fantastic thought

[MvP]

Wow. Love it

Thanks, it's indeed easier and faster for me to wrap than to paint something. And all the vinyl finishes that are available now(gold, aluminum, leather, chrome, satin, etc), you definitely can't beat that

Update, nothing stance related though

Decide to upgrade the factory horns on my car.

OEM Setup



Bought two Wolo 619 Air horns...



...tried to install 2 of them hoping that they will sound louder together, but it sounded the same as if I had just one Wolo installed.
I decided to keep one Wolo 619 and 2 OEM Miyamoto horns.

Wolo and OEM horns installed




Bracket and silver Wolo trim painted black


Rode like that for couple weeks and ordered Hella Super Tone horns to try.

Supertones factory look



Painted the red guard in black



Hella Super Tone installed



It's really hard to record how loud they are, but they are pretty darn loud in person I must say. I decided to keep them for now.

Also upgraded the front turn signal bulbs from SMD LED bulbs to Cree Q5 bulbs.

Got them on eBay for $35.99 shipped, kind of pricey. I'm sure they will be $10 next year



Painted the housing in black for a stealthy look




Old LED bulbs








New Cree Q5 25W bulbs installed







Here is the YouTube video


Thanks for looking.

Well this is awesome.

Great work! You definitely know what you're doing. And that brake/ wheel combo is just gorgeous.

[Stupid Kid]

this is pretty sweet, I like you choice of music to ha, I've always loved aphrodite and the urban jungle album in particular.

lower it more though! roll pull and stretch like we do, it would look nuts.
