This is coming together very nicely! I'll be checking back in for the updated look for sure.

Appreciate the feedback! Much more to come even after all is said and done.

Thank you!

Thanks! haha yeah I went through the "spray paint everything black" phase when I first started and thankfully I realized how dumb that is.

everyone has their questionable phases, but im really excited to see what this will look like all said and done

[dylanhaas]

I love G20's. Interested in seeing this come together.

Thank you!

I was hesitant when I was like 1/4 of the way down the thread but getting towards the end im really happy with everything you are doing on the car, it will look very rad.

16/14k

So I turn 21 in 11 days and my plan was to finish everything up before that, considering that would be my Birthday present to me (been very impatient the past 5 months while collecting parts), so next week is Spring Break which means "crunch time".

To do list:
- Get wheels mounted and balanced
- Change transmission fluid
- Reboot axles (all four CV boots)
- Shave down third links to accommodate coilover/ shortened UCAs
- Install coilovers
- Install Cusco UCAs
- Alignment (big time)
- Install/ find out a way to retrofit rear bumper skirt
- Finish by installing wheels after alignment

Let's pray I get this crap done, I've been waiting for far too long to wait any longer haha. Thankfully I have supportive friends and a father to help me with any issues. Also blessed to work at an amazing job that I can get free balancing and alignments!

Wish me luck!

All finished. It certainly is different having it full white, but I LOVE it.

My grille came in Gonna test it in a little! I might actually stick with the KL0 if I like it enough. If not, time to paint today!



Thought I was going to like the silver on white but it didn't fit with me so I decided to paint it.


The Infiniti emblem on my grille was nicer so I used a heat gun and a flexible putty knife to work around the heated area to pop out the emblem. There are two pins that go into the two holes in the grille (for anyone who has never done this).


I used a green and red scotch brite pad to scuff up the old paint

Yes, that is Toyota white pearl paint. I used it last time I painted my old grille white. It works much better than ordering the three stage pearl paint online that didn't match whatsoever to QT1. I also used a clear coat.

I sprayed one layer of primer and used higher grit sandpaper to get all the pitted areas from rocks

Third layer of primer

I sprayed 4 even coats of the paint

Currently letting the clear coat set and dry. After I will be wet sanding and buffing to finish it up. Tomorrow

congrats on the wheels, must feel good.

but dude get them shits on and lets get it poppin!

[dylanhaas]

These have been my dream to own these since I bought the car. I am beyond happy. Might re-lip to 4" lips in the rear. Get some new valve stems and VS center caps and I'm set!
